God Speaks of Nature and Its Beings

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:1 -

“Do you know the time the [fn]mountain goats give birth?

Do you observe the calving of the deer?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:2 -

“Can you count the months they fulfill,

Or do you know the time they give birth?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:3 -

“They kneel down, they deliver their young,

They get rid of their labor pains.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:4 -

“Their offspring become strong, they grow up in the open field;

They leave and do not return to them.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:5 -

“Who sent the wild donkey out free?

And who opened the bonds of the swift donkey,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:6 -

To whom I gave the wilderness as his home,

And the salt land as his dwelling place?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:7 -

“He laughs at the turmoil of the city,

He does not hear the shouting of the taskmaster.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:8 -

“He explores the mountains of his pasture,

And searches after every green thing.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:9 -

“Will the wild bull be willing to serve you,

Or will he spend the night at your feeding trough?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:10 -

Or will he [fn]plow the valleys after you?

“Will you trust him because his strength is great,

And leave your labor to him?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:12 -

And gather it from your threshing floor?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:13 -

“The wings of the ostrich flap joyously,

With the pinion and feathers of [fn]love,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:14 -

For she abandons her eggs to the earth

And warms them in the dust,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:15 -

And she forgets that a foot may crush [fn]them,

Or that a wild animal may trample [fn]them.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:16 -

“She treats her young cruelly, as if they were not hers;

Though her labor is for nothing, she is [fn]unconcerned,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:17 -

Because God has made her forget wisdom,

And has not given her a share of understanding.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:18 -

“When she rushes away on high,

She laughs at the horse and his rider.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:19 -

“Do you give the horse his might?

Do you clothe his neck with a mane?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:20 -

“Do you make him leap like locusts?

His majestic snorting is frightening.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:21 -

[fn]He paws in the valley, and rejoices in his strength;

He goes out to meet the battle.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:22 -

“He laughs at fear and is not dismayed;

And he does not turn back from the sword.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:23 -

“The quiver rattles against him,

The flashing spear and javelin.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:24 -

“He [fn]races over the ground with a roar and fury,

And he does not stand still when he hears the sound of the trumpet.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:25 -

“As often as the trumpet sounds he says, ‘Aha!’

And he senses the battle from afar,

And the thunder of the captains and the war cry.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:26 -

“Is it by your understanding that the hawk soars,

Stretching his wings toward the south?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:27 -

“Is it at your [fn]command that the eagle flies high,

And makes his nest on high?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:28 -

“He dwells and spends his nights on the cliff,

On the rocky cliff, an inaccessible place.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:29 -

“From there he tracks food;

His eyes look at it from afar.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:30 -

“His young ones also lick up blood greedily;

And where the slain are, there he is.”
