|
|
1. “Do you know when the mountain goats give birth? Do you observe the calving of the does?
|
|||
|
|
<a id="2" name="2"></a>
|
|||
|
|
2. Can you number the months that they fulfill, and do you know the time when they give birth,
|
|||
|
|
<a id="3" name="3"></a>
|
|||
|
|
3. when they crouch, bring forth their offspring, and are delivered of their young?
|
|||
|
|
<a id="4" name="4"></a>
|
|||
|
|
4. Their young ones become strong; they grow up in the open; they go out and do not return to them.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="5" name="5"></a>
|
|||
|
|
5. “Who has let the wild donkey go free? Who has loosed the bonds of the swift donkey,
|
|||
|
|
<a id="6" name="6"></a>
|
|||
|
|
6. to whom I have given the arid plain for his home and the salt land for his dwelling place?
|
|||
|
|
<a id="7" name="7"></a>
|
|||
|
|
7. He scorns the tumult of the city; he hears not the shouts of the driver.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="8" name="8"></a>
|
|||
|
|
8. He ranges the mountains as his pasture, and he searches after every green thing.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="9" name="9"></a>
|
|||
|
|
9. “Is the wild ox willing to serve you? Will he spend the night at your manger?
|
|||
|
|
<a id="10" name="10"></a>
|
|||
|
|
10. Can you bind him in the furrow with ropes, or will he harrow the valleys after you?
|
|||
|
|
<a id="11" name="11"></a>
|
|||
|
|
11. Will you depend on him because his strength is great, and will you leave to him your labor?
|
|||
|
|
<a id="12" name="12"></a>
|
|||
|
|
12. Do you have faith in him that he will return your grain and gather it to your threshing floor?
|
|||
|
|
<a id="13" name="13"></a>
|
|||
|
|
13. “The wings of the ostrich wave proudly, but are they the pinions and plumage of love?
|
|||
|
|
<a id="14" name="14"></a>
|
|||
|
|
14. For she leaves her eggs to the earth and lets them be warmed on the ground,
|
|||
|
|
<a id="15" name="15"></a>
|
|||
|
|
15. forgetting that a foot may crush them and that the wild beast may trample them.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="16" name="16"></a>
|
|||
|
|
16. She deals cruelly with her young, as if they were not hers; though her labor be in vain, yet she has no fear,
|
|||
|
|
<a id="17" name="17"></a>
|
|||
|
|
17. because God has made her forget wisdom and given her no share in understanding.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="18" name="18"></a>
|
|||
|
|
18. When she rouses herself to flee, she laughs at the horse and his rider.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="19" name="19"></a>
|
|||
|
|
19. “Do you give the horse his might? Do you clothe his neck with a mane?
|
|||
|
|
<a id="20" name="20"></a>
|
|||
|
|
20. Do you make him leap like the locust? His majestic snorting is terrifying.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="21" name="21"></a>
|
|||
|
|
21. He paws in the valley and exults in his strength; he goes out to meet the weapons.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="22" name="22"></a>
|
|||
|
|
22. He laughs at fear and is not dismayed; he does not turn back from the sword.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="23" name="23"></a>
|
|||
|
|
23. Upon him rattle the quiver, the flashing spear, and the javelin.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="24" name="24"></a>
|
|||
|
|
24. With fierceness and rage he swallows the ground; he cannot stand still at the sound of the trumpet.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="25" name="25"></a>
|
|||
|
|
25. When the trumpet sounds, he says ‘Aha!’ He smells the battle from afar, the thunder of the captains, and the shouting.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="26" name="26"></a>
|
|||
|
|
26. “Is it by your understanding that the hawk soars and spreads his wings toward the south?
|
|||
|
|
<a id="27" name="27"></a>
|
|||
|
|
27. Is it at your command that the eagle mounts up and makes his nest on high?
|
|||
|
|
<a id="28" name="28"></a>
|
|||
|
|
28. On the rock he dwells and makes his home, on the rocky crag and stronghold.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="29" name="29"></a>
|
|||
|
|
29. From there he spies out the prey; his eyes behold it from far away.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="30" name="30"></a>
|
|||
|
|
30. His young ones suck up blood, and where the slain are, there is he.”
