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.
