Job 39 — Scripture text (King James Version)
Knowest3045 thou the time6256 when the wild goats3277 of the rock5553 bring forth3205? or canst thou 8104 when the hinds355 do calve2342? Canst thou number5608 the months3391 that they fulfil4390? or knowest3045 thou the time6256 when they bring forth3205? They bow3766 themselves, they bring forth6398 their young ones3206, they cast out7971 their sorrows2256. Their young ones1121 are in good liking2492, they grow up7235 with corn1250; they go forth3318, and return7725 not unto them. Who hath sent out7971 the wild ass6501 free2670? or who hath loosed6605 the bands4147 of the wild ass6171? Whose house1004 I have made7760 the wilderness6160, and the barren4420 land his dwellings4908. barren: Heb. salt places He scorneth7832 the multitude1995 of the city7151, neither regardeth8085 he the crying8663 of the driver5065. of the driver: Heb. of the exactor The range3491 of the mountains2022 is his pasture4829, and he searcheth1875 after310 every green thing3387. Will the unicorn7214 be willing14 to serve5647 thee, or abide3885 by thy crib18? Canst thou bind7194 the unicorn7214 with his band5688 in the furrow8525? or will he harrow7702 the valleys6010 after310 thee? Wilt thou trust982 him, because his strength3581 is great7227? or wilt thou leave5800 thy labour3018 to him? Wilt thou believe539 him, that he will bring home7725 7725 thy seed2233, and gather622 it into thy barn1637? Gavest thou the goodly7443 wings3671 unto the peacocks5965? or wings84 and feathers2624 unto the ostrich5133? wings and: or, the feathers of the stork and ostrich Which leaveth5800 her eggs1000 in the earth776, and warmeth2552 them in dust6083, And forgetteth7911 that the foot7272 may crush2115 them, or that the wild7704 beast2416 may break1758 them. She is hardened7188 against her young ones1121, as though they were not3808 hers: her labour3018 is in vain7385 without fear6343; Because God433 hath deprived5382 her of 2451, neither hath he imparted2505 to her understanding998. What time6256 she lifteth up4754 herself high4791, she scorneth7832 the 5483 and his rider7392. Hast thou given5414 the 5483 strength1369? hast thou clothed3847 his neck6677 with thunder7483? Canst thou make him afraid7493 as a grasshopper697? the 1935 of his nostrils5170 is terrible367. terrible: Heb. terror He paweth2658 in the valley6010, and rejoiceth7797 in his strength3581: he goeth 3318 to meet7125 the armed men5402. He paweth: or, His feet dig the armed: Heb. the armour He mocketh7832 at fear6343, and is not affrighted2865; neither turneth he back7725 from6440 the 2719. The quiver827 rattleth7439 against him, the glittering3851 2595 and the 3591. He swalloweth1572 the ground776 with fierceness7494 and rage7267: neither believeth539 he that it is the sound6963 of the 7782. He saith559 among1767 7782, Ha1889, ha1889; and he smelleth7306 the battle4421 afar off7350, the thunder7482 of the captains8269, and the shouting8643. Doth the hawk5322 fly82 by thy 998, and stretch6566 her wings3671 toward the south8486? Doth the 5404 mount up1361 at thy command6310, and make7311 her nest7064 high7311? at: Heb. by thy mouth She dwelleth7931 and abideth3885 the rock5553, upon the crag8127 of the rock5553, and the strong place4686. From thence she seeketh2658 the prey400, and her eyes5869 behold5027 afar off7350. Her young ones667 also suck up5966 blood1818: and where the slain2491 are, there is she1931.
