13 The wings of the ostrich flap with joy, but are they the pinions and plumage of a stork?

14 For she leaves her eggs on the ground, and lets them be warmed on the soil.

15 She forgets that a foot might crush them, or that a wild animal might trample them.

16 She is harsh with her young, as if they were not hers; she is unconcerned about the uselessness of her labor.

17 For God deprived her of wisdom, and did not impart understanding to her.
