3They bow themselves, they bring forth their young ones, they cast out their sorrows.Select Job 39:3

4Their young ones are in good liking, they grow up with corn; they go forth, and return not unto them.Select Job 39:4

5Who hath sent out the wild ass free? or who hath loosed the bands of the wild ass?Select Job 39:5

9Will the unicorn be willing to serve thee, or abide by thy crib?Select Job 39:9

10Canst thou bind the unicorn with his band in the furrow? or will he harrow the valleys after thee?Select Job 39:10

11Wilt thou trust him, because his strength is great? or wilt thou leave thy labour to him?Select Job 39:11

12Wilt thou believe him, that he will bring home thy seed, and gather it into thy barn?Select Job 39:12

13Gavest thou the goodly wings unto the peacocks? or wings and feathers unto the ostrich?Select Job 39:13

14Which leaveth her eggs in the earth, and warmeth them in dust,Select Job 39:14

15And forgetteth that the foot may crush them, or that the wild beast may break them.Select Job 39:15

16She is hardened against her young ones, as though they were not hers: her labour is in vain without fear;Select Job 39:16

17Because God hath deprived her of wisdom, neither hath he imparted to her understanding.Select Job 39:17

18What time she lifteth up herself on high, she scorneth the horse and his rider.Select Job 39:18

19Hast thou given the horse strength? hast thou clothed his neck with thunder?Select Job 39:19

20Canst thou make him afraid as a grasshopper? the glory of his nostrils is terrible.Select Job 39:20

21He paweth in the valley, and rejoiceth in his strength: he goeth on to meet the armed men.Select Job 39:21

23The quiver rattleth against him, the glittering spear and the shield.Select Job 39:23

24He swalloweth the ground with fierceness and rage: neither believeth he that it is the sound of the trumpet.Select Job 39:24

25He saith among the trumpets, Ha, ha; and he smelleth the battle afar off, the thunder of the captains, and the shouting.Select Job 39:25

26Doth the hawk fly by thy wisdom, and stretch her wings toward the south?Select Job 39:26

27Doth the eagle mount up at thy command, and make her nest on high?Select Job 39:27

28She dwelleth and abideth on the rock, upon the crag of the rock, and the strong place.Select Job 39:28

29From thence she seeketh the prey, and her eyes behold afar off.Select Job 39:29

30Her young ones also suck up blood: and where the slain are, there is she.Select Job 39:30
