1(39:4) Knowest thou the time when the wilde goates bring foorth yong? or doest thou marke when the hindes doe calue?

2(39:5) Canst thou nomber the moneths that they fulfill? or knowest thou the time when they bring foorth?

3(39:6) They bow them selues: they bruise their yong and cast out their sorowes.

4(39:7) Yet their yong waxe fatte, and growe vp with corne: they goe foorth and returne not vnto them.

5(39:8) Who hath set the wilde asse at libertie? or who hath loosed the bondes of the wilde asse?

6(39:9) It is I which haue made the wildernesse his house, and the salt places his dwellings.

7(39:10) He derideth the multitude of the citie: he heareth not the crie of the driuer.

8(39:11) He seeketh out the mountaine for his pasture, and searcheth after euery greene thing.

9(39:12) Will the vnicorne serue thee? or will he tary by thy cribbe?

10(39:13) Canst thou binde the vnicorne with his band to labour in the furrowe? or will he plowe the valleyes after thee?

11(39:14) Wilt thou trust in him, because his stregth is great, and cast off thy labour vnto him?

12(39:15) Wilt thou beleeue him, that he will bring home thy seede, and gather it vnto thy barne?

13(39:16) Hast thou giuen the pleasant wings vnto the peacockes? or winges and feathers vnto the ostriche?

14(39:17) Which leaueth his egges in the earth, and maketh them hote in the dust,

15(39:18) And forgetteth that the foote might scatter the, or that the wild beast might breake the.

16(39:19) He sheweth himselfe cruell vnto his yong ones, as they were not his, and is without feare, as if he trauailed in vaine.

17(39:20) For God had depriued him of wisedom, and hath giuen him no part of vnderstanding.

18(39:21) When time is, he mounteth on hie: he mocketh the horse and his rider.

19(39:22) Hast thou giuen the horse strength? or couered his necke with neying?

20(39:23) Hast thou made him afraid as the grashopper? his strong neying is fearefull.

21(39:24) He diggeth in the valley, and reioyceth in his strength: he goeth foorth to meete the harnest man.

22(39:25) He mocketh at feare, and is not afraid, and turneth not backe from the sworde,

23(39:26) Though the quiuer rattle against him, the glittering speare and the shield.

24(39:27) He swalloweth the ground for fearcenes and rage, and he beleeueth not that it is the noise of the trumpet.

25(39:28) He sayth among the trumpets, Ha, ha: hee smelleth the battell afarre off, and the noyse of the captaines, and the shouting.

26(39:29) Shall the hauke flie by thy wisedome, stretching out his wings toward the South?

27(39:30) Doeth the egle mount vp at thy commandement, or make his nest on hie?

28(39:31) Shee abideth and remaineth in the rocke, euen vpon the toppe of the rocke, and the tower.

29(39:32) From thence she spieth for meate, and her eyes beholde afarre off.

30(39:33) His young ones also sucke vp blood: and where the slaine are, there is she.
