New Testament

Job 39:10-17 Modern English Version (MEV)

10. Can you bind the wild ox in the furrow with ropes?Or will he plow the valleys behind you?

11. Will you trust him because his strength is great?Or will you leave your labor to him?

12. Will you trust him to bring home your grainand gather it into your barn?

13. “Did you give the beautiful wings to the peacocks?Or wings and feathers to the ostrich,

14. who leaves her eggs in the earth,and warms them in dust,

15. and forgets that a foot may crush them,or that the wild beast may break them?

16. She is hardened against her young ones,as though they were not hers;her labor is in vain, without concern,

17. because God has deprived her of wisdom,nor has He imparted understanding to her.
