5. Who let the wild donkey go free?Who released the bonds of the donkey,
6. to whom I appointed the steppe for its home,the salt wastes as its dwelling place?
7. It scorns the tumult in the town;it does not hear the shouts of a driver.
8. It ranges the hills as its pasture,and searches after every green plant.
9. Is the wild ox willing to be your servant?Will it spend the night at your feeding trough?
10. Can you bind the wild ox to a furrow with its rope,will it till the valleys, following after you?
11. Will you rely on it because its strength is great?Will you commit your labor to it?
12. Can you count on it to bring in your grain,and gather the grain to your threshing floor?
13. “The wings of the ostrich flap with joy,but are they the pinions and plumage of a stork?
14. For she leaves her eggs on the ground,and lets them be warmed on the soil.
15. She forgets that a foot might crush them,or that a wild animal might trample them.
16. She is harsh with her young, as if they were not hers;she is unconcerned about the uselessness of her labor.
17. For God deprived her of wisdom,and did not impart understanding to her.
