13 The wings of the ostrich flap away; her plumage is lacking in feathers.

14 When she abandons her eggs on the ground and lets them warm in the sand,

15 She forgets that a foot may crush them, that the wild beasts may trample them;

16 She cruelly disowns her young and her labor is useless; she has no fear.

17 For God has withheld wisdom from her and given her no share in understanding.

18 Yet when she spreads her wings high, she laughs at a horse and rider.
