Job 39:5-18
-
5 Who hath sent out the wild ass free? or who hath loosed the bands of the wild ass?
-
6 Whose house I have made the wilderness, and the barren land his dwellings.
-
7 He scorneth the multitude of the city, neither regardeth he the crying of the driver.
-
8 The range of the mountains is his pasture, and he searcheth after every green thing.
-
9 Will the unicorn be willing to serve thee, or abide by thy crib?
-
10 Canst thou bind the unicorn with his band in the furrow? or will he harrow the valleys after thee?
-
11 Wilt thou trust him, because his strength is great? or wilt thou leave thy labour to him?
-
12 Wilt thou believe him, that he will bring home thy seed, and gather it into thy barn?
-
13 Gavest thou the goodly wings unto the peacocks? or wings and feathers unto the ostrich?
-
14 Which leaveth her eggs in the earth, and warmeth them in dust,
-
15 And forgetteth that the foot may crush them, or that the wild beast may break them.
-
16 She is hardened against her young ones, as though they were not hers: her labour is in vain without fear;
-
17 Because God hath deprived her of wisdom, neither hath he imparted to her understanding.
-
18 What time she lifteth up herself on high, she scorneth the horse and his rider.
