New Testament

Job 39:6-14 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

6. I am the one who gave the donkey the desert as his home.I gave him the desert lands as a place to live.

7. The wild donkey laughs at the confusion in the city.He does not hear the drivers shout.

8. He roams the hills looking for pasture.And he looks for anything green to eat.

9. “Will the wild ox agree to serve you?Will he stay by your feeding box at night?

10. Can you hold him to the plowed row with a harness?Will he plow the valleys for you?

11. Will you depend on the wild ox for his great strength?Will you leave your heavy work for him to do?

12. Can you trust the ox to bring in your grain?Will he gather it to your threshing floor?

13. “The wings of the ostrich flap happily.But the ostrich’s wings are not as beautiful as the feathers of the stork.

14. The ostrich lays her eggs on the groundand lets them warm in the sand.
