Book 29 : KETUVIM - JOB - Chapter 039

39:001

Knowest thou the time when the wild goats of the rock bring forth? Or canst thou mark when the hinds do calve

39:002

Canst thou number the months that they fulfil? Or knowest thou the time when they bring forth

39:003

They bow themselves, they bring forth their young, they cast out their fruit

39:004

Their young ones wax strong, they grow up in the open field; they go forth, and return not again

39:005

Who hath sent out the wild ass free? Or who hath loosed the bands of the wild ass

39:006

Whose house I have made the wilderness, and the salt land his dwelling-place

39:007

He scorneth the tumult of the city, neither heareth he the shoutings of the driver

39:008

The range of the mountains is his pasture, and he searcheth after every green thing

39:009

Will the wild-ox be willing to serve thee? Or will he abide by thy crib

39:010

Canst thou bind the wild-ox with his band in the furrow? Or will he harrow the valleys after thee

39:011

Wilt thou trust him, because his strength is great? Or wilt thou leave thy labour to him

39:012

Wilt thou rely on him, that he will bring home thy seed, and gather the corn of thy threshing-floor

39:013

The wing of the ostrich beateth joyously; but are her pinions and feathers the kindly stork's

39:014

For she leaveth her eggs on the earth, and warmeth them in dust

39:015

And forgetteth that the foot may crush them, or that the wild beast may trample them

39:016

She is hardened against her young ones, as if they were not hers; though her labour be in vain, she is without fear

39:017

Because G-d hath deprived her of wisdom, neither hath He imparted to her understanding

39:018

When the time cometh, she raiseth her wings on high, and scorneth the horse and his rider

39:019

Hast thou given the horse his strength? Hast thou clothed his neck with fierceness

39:020

Hast thou made him to leap as a locust? The glory of his snorting is terrible

39:021

He paweth in the valley, and rejoiceth in his strength; he goeth out to meet the clash of arms

39:022

He mocketh at fear, and is not affrighted; neither turneth he back from the sword

39:023

The quiver rattleth upon him, the glittering spear and the javelin

39:024

He swalloweth the ground with storm and rage; neither believeth he that it is the voice of the horn

39:025

As oft as he heareth the horn he saith: 'Ha, ha!' and he smelleth the battle afar off, the thunder of the captains, and the shouting

39:026

Doth the hawk soar by thy wisdom, and stretch her wings toward the south

39:027

Doth the vulture mount up at thy command, and make her nest on high

39:028

She dwelleth and abideth on the rock, upon the crag of the rock, and the stronghold

39:029

From thence she spieth out the prey; her eyes behold it afar off

39:030

Her young ones also suck up blood; and where the slain are, there is she
