Job 39 (ASV Interlinear Bible)

1Knowest thou the time when the wild goats of the rock bring forth?

Or canst thou mark when the hinds do calve?

2Canst thou number the months that they fulfil?

Or knowest thou the time when they bring forth?

3They bow themselves, they bring forth their young,

They cast out their pains.

4Their young ones become strong, they grow up in the open field;

They go forth, and

5Who hath sent out the wild ass free?

Or who hath loosed the bonds of the swift ass,

6Whose home I have made the wilderness,

And the salt land his dwelling-place?

7He scorneth the tumult of the city,

Neither heareth he the shoutings of the

driver.

8The range of the mountains is his pasture,

And he searcheth after every green thing.

9Will the wild-ox be content to serve thee?

Or will he abide by thy crib?

10Canst thou bind the wild-ox with his band in the furrow?

Or will he harrow the valleys after thee?

11Wilt thou trust him, because his strength is great?

Or wilt thou leave to him thy labor?

12Wilt thou confide in him, that he will bring home thy seed,

And gather the grain of thy threshing-floor?

13The wings of the ostrich wave proudly;

But are they the pinions and plumage of

14For she leaveth her eggs on the earth,

And warmeth them in the dust,

Or that the wild beast may trample them.

25As oft as the trumpet soundeth he saith, Aha!

And he smelleth the battle afar off,

The thunder of the captains, and the shouting.

26Is it by thy wisdom that the hawk soareth,

And stretcheth her wings toward the south?

27Is it at thy command that the eagle mounteth up,

And maketh her nest on high?

28On the cliff she dwelleth, and maketh her home,

Upon the point of the cliff, and the stronghold.

29From thence she spieth out the prey;

Her eyes behold it afar off.

30Her young ones also suck up blood:

And where the slain are, there is she.
