- "Can you count the months they fulfill, Or do you know the time they give birth?
- "They kneel down, they bring forth their young, They get rid of their labor pains.
- "Their offspring become strong, they grow up in the open field; They leave and do not return to them.
- "Who sent out the wild donkey free? And who loosed the bonds of the swift donkey,
|
- Knowest thou the time when the wild goats of the rock bring forth? or canst thou mark when the hinds do calve?
- Canst thou number the months that they fulfil? or knowest thou the time when they bring forth?
- They bow themselves, they bring forth their young ones, they cast out their sorrows.
- Their young ones are in good liking, they grow up with corn; they go forth, and return not unto them.
- Who hath sent out the wild ass free? or who hath loosed the bands of the wild ass?
|
- To whom I gave the wilderness for a home And the salt land for his dwelling place?
- "He scorns the tumult of the city, The shoutings of the driver he does not hear.
- "He explores the mountains for his pasture And searches after every green thing.
- "Will the wild ox consent to serve you, Or will he spend the night at your manger?
- "Can you bind the wild ox in a furrow with ropes, Or will he harrow the valleys after you?
|
- Whose house I have made the wilderness, and the barren land his dwellings.
- He scorneth the multitude of the city, neither regardeth he the crying of the driver.
- The range of the mountains is his pasture, and he searcheth after every green thing.
- Will the unicorn be willing to serve thee, or abide by thy crib?
- Canst thou bind the unicorn with his band in the furrow? or will he harrow the valleys after thee?

- "Will you trust him because his strength is great And leave your labor to him?
- "Will you have faith in him that he will return your grain And gather it from your threshing floor?
- "The ostriches' wings flap joyously With the pinion and plumage of love,
- For she abandons her eggs to the earth And warms them in the dust,
- And she forgets that a foot may crush them, Or that a wild beast may trample them.
|
- Wilt thou trust him, because his strength is great? or wilt thou leave thy labour to him?
- Wilt thou believe him, that he will bring home thy seed, and gather it into thy barn?
- Gavest thou the goodly wings unto the peacocks? or wings and feathers unto the ostrich?
- Which leaveth her eggs in the earth, and warmeth them in dust,
- And forgetteth that the foot may crush them, or that the wild beast may break them.
|
- "She treats her young cruelly, as if they were not hers; Though her labor be in vain, she is unconcerned;
- Because God has made her forget wisdom, And has not given her a share of understanding.
- "When she lifts herself on high, She laughs at the horse and his rider.
- "Do you give the horse his might? Do you clothe his neck with a mane?
- "Do you make him leap like the locust? His majestic snorting is terrible.
|
- She is hardened against her young ones, as though they were not her's: her labour is in vain without fear;
- Because God hath deprived her of wisdom, neither hath he imparted to her understanding.
- What time she lifteth up herself on high, she scorneth the horse and his rider.
- Hast thou given the horse strength? hast thou clothed his neck with thunder?
- Canst thou make him afraid as a grasshopper? the glory of his nostrils is terrible.
|
- "He paws in the valley, and rejoices in his strength; He goes out to meet the weapons.
- "He laughs at fear and is not dismayed; And he does not turn back from the sword.
- "The quiver rattles against him, The flashing spear and javelin.
- "With shaking and rage he races over the ground, And he does not stand still at the voice of the trumpet.
- "As often as the trumpet sounds he says, 'Aha!' And he scents the battle from afar, And the thunder of the captains and the war cry.
|
- He paweth in the valley, and rejoiceth in his strength: he goeth on to meet the armed men.
- He mocketh at fear, and is not affrighted; neither turneth he back from the sword.
- The quiver rattleth against him, the glittering spear and the shield.
- He swalloweth the ground with fierceness and rage: neither believeth he that it is the sound of the trumpet.
- He saith among the trumpets, Ha, ha; and he smelleth the battle afar off, the thunder of the captains, and the shouting.
|
- "Is it by your understanding that the hawk soars, Stretching his wings toward the south?
- "Is it at your command that the eagle mounts up And makes his nest on high?
- "On the cliff he dwells and lodges, Upon the rocky crag, an inaccessible place.
- "From there he spies out food; His eyes see it from afar.
- "His young ones also suck up blood; And where the slain are, there is he."
|
- Doth the hawk fly by thy wisdom, and stretch her wings toward the south?
- Doth the eagle mount up at thy command, and make her nest on high?
- She dwelleth and abideth on the rock, upon the crag of the rock, and the strong place.
- From thence she seeketh the prey, and her eyes behold afar off.
- Her young ones also suck up blood: and where the slain are, there is she.
