ASV_Strong : Job 39
1. Knowest[H3045] thou the time[H6256] when the wild goats[H3277] of the rock[H5553] bring forth[H3205]? Or canst thou mark[H8104] when the hinds[H355] do calve[H2342]?
2. Canst thou number[H5608] the months[H3391] that they fulfil[H4390]? Or knowest[H3045] thou the time[H6256] when they bring forth[H3205]?
3. They bow[H3766] themselves[H6398], they bring forth their young[H3206], They cast out[H7971] their pains[H2256].
4. Their young ones[H1121] become strong[H2492], they grow up[H7235] in the open field[H1250]; They go forth[H3318], and return not again[H7725].
5. Who hath sent out[H7971] the wild ass[H6501] free[H2670]? Or who hath loosed[H6605] the bonds[H4147] of the swift ass[H6171],
6. Whose home[H1004] I have made[H7760] the wilderness[H6160], And the salt[H4420] land his dwelling-place[H4908]?
7. He scorneth[H7832] the tumult[H1995] of the city[H7151], Neither heareth[H8085] he the shoutings[H8663] of the driver[H5065].
8. The range[H3491] of the mountains[H2022] is his pasture[H4829], And he searcheth[H1875] after[H310] every green thing[H3387].
9. Will the wild-ox[H7214] be content[H14] to serve[H5647] thee[H3885]? Or will he abide by thy crib[H18]?
10. Canst thou bind[H7194] the wild-ox[H7214] with his band[H5688] in the furrow[H8525]? Or will he harrow[H7702] the valleys[H6010] after thee[H310]?
11. Wilt thou trust[H982] him[H3581], because his strength is great[H7227]? Or wilt thou leave[H5800] to him thy labor[H3018]?
12. Wilt thou confide[H539] in him[H7725], that he will bring home thy seed[H2233], And gather[H622] the grain of thy threshing-floor[H1637]?
13. The wings[H3671] of the ostrich[H5965] wave proudly[H7443]; But are they the pinions[H84] and plumage[H2624] of love[H5133]?
14. For she leaveth[H5800] her eggs[H1000] on the earth[H776], And warmeth[H2552] them in the dust[H6083],
15. And forgetteth[H7911] that the foot[H7272] may crush[H2115] them[H7704], Or that the wild beast[H2416] may trample them[H1758].
16. She dealeth hardly[H7188] with her young ones[H1121], as if they were not[H3808] hers[H3018]: Though her labor be in vain[H7385], she is without fear[H6343];
17. Because God[H433] hath deprived[H5382] her of wisdom[H2451], Neither hath he imparted[H2505] to her understanding[H998].
18. What time[H6256] she lifteth up[H4754] herself on high[H4791], She scorneth[H7832] the horse[H5483] and his rider[H7392].
19. Hast thou given[H5414] the horse[H5483] his might[H1369]? Hast thou clothed[H3847] his neck[H6677] with the quivering mane[H7483]?
20. Hast thou made him to leap[H7493] as a locust[H697]? The glory[H1935] of his snorting[H5170] is terrible[H367].
21. He paweth[H2658] in the valley[H6010], and rejoiceth[H7797] in his strength[H3581]: He goeth out[H3318] to meet[H7125] the armed men[H5402].
22. He mocketh[H7832] at fear[H6343], and is not dismayed[H2865]; Neither turneth he back[H7725] from[H6440] the sword[H2719].
23. The quiver[H827] rattleth[H7439] against him[H3851], The flashing spear[H2595] and the javelin[H3591].
24. He swalloweth[H1572] the ground[H776] with fierceness[H7494] and rage[H7267]; Neither believeth[H539] he that it is the voice[H6963] of the trumpet[H7782].
25. As oft as the trumpet[H7782] soundeth[H1767] he saith[H559], Aha[H1889]! [H1889] And he smelleth[H7306] the battle[H4421] afar off[H7350], The thunder[H7482] of the captains[H8269], and the shouting[H8643].
26. Is it by thy wisdom[H998] that the hawk[H5322] soareth[H82], (And[H6566]) stretcheth her wings[H3671] toward the south[H8486]?
27. Is it at thy command[H6310] that the eagle[H5404] mounteth up[H1361], And maketh[H7311] her nest[H7064] on high[H7311]?
28. On the cliff[H5553] she dwelleth[H7931], and maketh her home[H3885], Upon the point[H5553] of the cliff[H8127], and the stronghold[H4686].
29. From thence she spieth[H2658] out the prey[H400]; Her eyes[H5869] behold[H5027] it afar off[H7350].
30. Her young ones[H667] also suck up[H5966] blood[H1818]: And where the slain[H2491] are[H1931], there is she.
