[an error occurred while processing this directive]Holman Christian Standard Bible
1[an error occurred while processing this directive]1Do you know when mountain goats give birth? Have you watched the deer in labor?
2[an error occurred while processing this directive]2Can you count the months they are pregnant so you can know the time they give birth?
3[an error occurred while processing this directive]3They crouch down to give birth to their young; they deliver their newborn.
4[an error occurred while processing this directive]4Their offspring are healthy and grow up in the open field. They leave and do not return.
5[an error occurred while processing this directive]5Who set the wild donkey free? Who released the swift donkey from its harness?
6[an error occurred while processing this directive]6I made the wilderness its home, and the salty wasteland its dwelling.
7[an error occurred while processing this directive]7It scoffs at the noise of the village and never hears the shouts of a driver.
8[an error occurred while processing this directive]8It roams the mountains for its pastureland, searching for anything green.
9[an error occurred while processing this directive]9Would the wild ox be willing to serve you? Would it spend the night by your feeding trough?
10[an error occurred while processing this directive]10Can you hold the wild ox to a furrow by its harness? Will it plow the valleys behind you?
11[an error occurred while processing this directive]11Can you depend on it because its strength is great? Would you leave it to do your hard work?
12[an error occurred while processing this directive]12Can you trust the wild ox to harvest your grain and bring it to your threshing floor?
13[an error occurred while processing this directive]13The wings of the ostrich flap joyfully, but are her feathers and plumage like the stork's?
14[an error occurred while processing this directive]14She abandons her eggs on the ground and lets them be warmed in the sand.
15[an error occurred while processing this directive]15She forgets that a foot may crush them or that some wild animal may trample them.
16[an error occurred while processing this directive]16She treats her young harshly, as if they were not her own, with no fear that her labor may have been in vain.
17[an error occurred while processing this directive]17For God has deprived her of wisdom; He has not endowed her with understanding.
18[an error occurred while processing this directive]18When she proudly spreads her wings, she laughs at the horse and its rider.
19[an error occurred while processing this directive]19Do you give strength to the horse? Do you adorn his neck with a mane?
20[an error occurred while processing this directive]20Do you make him leap like a locust? His proud snorting fills one with terror.
21[an error occurred while processing this directive]21He paws in the valley and rejoices in his strength; He charges into battle.
22[an error occurred while processing this directive]22He laughs at fear, since he is afraid of nothing; he does not run from the sword.
23[an error occurred while processing this directive]23A quiver rattles at his side, along with a flashing spear and a lance.
24[an error occurred while processing this directive]24He charges ahead with trembling rage; he cannot stand still at the trumpet's sound.
25[an error occurred while processing this directive]25When the trumpet blasts, he snorts defiantly. He smells the battle from a distance; he hears the officers' shouts and the battle cry.
26[an error occurred while processing this directive]26Does the hawk take flight by your understanding and spread its wings to the south?
27[an error occurred while processing this directive]27Does the eagle soar at your command and make its nest on high?
28[an error occurred while processing this directive]28It lives on a cliff where it spends the night; its stronghold is on a rocky crag.
29[an error occurred while processing this directive]29From there it searches for prey; its eyes penetrate the distance.
30[an error occurred while processing this directive]30Its brood gulps down blood, and where the slain are, it is there.
