Job 39:13-18 ▼

13 [The] wing of the crying ostriches exults, but as a pinion and feather of a stork?

14 For she leaves her eggs on the earth, || And she warms them on the dust,

15 And she forgets that a foot may press it, || And a beast of the field treads it down.

16 It has hardened her young ones without her, || Her labor [is] in vain, without fear.

17 For God has caused her to forget wisdom, || And He has not given a portion || To her in understanding;

18 At the time she lifts herself up on high, || She laughs at the horse and his rider.
