Job 39 Knowest thou the tyme when the wylde goates brynge forth theyr yonge, amonge the stony rockes? Or layest thou wayte when the hyndes vse to fawne?

Great⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Knowest thou the tyme when the wylde goates brynge forth theyr yonge, amonge the stony rockes? Or layest thou wayte when the hyndes vse to fawne? ² rekenest thou the monethes after they engendre, that thou knowest the tyme of theyr bearinge? ³ or when they lye downe, when they cast theyr younge ones, and when they are delyuered of theyr trauayle and payne? ⁴ How their younge ones growe vp, & waxe greate thorow good fedyng? whan they go forth, and returne not agayne vnto them? ⁵ who letteth the wylde asse go fre, or who lowseth the bondes of the mule? ⁶ Euen I whych haue geuen the wyldernes to be theyr house, and the vntylled land to be theyr dwellyng place. ⁷ That they may geue no force for the multitude of people in the cyties, nether regarde the cryenge of the dryuer: ⁸ but seke theyr pasture about the mountaynes, and folowe the grene grasse. ⁹ Wyll the vnycorne be so tame as to do the seruice, or to abyde styll by thy crybbe? ¹⁰ Canst thou bynd the yock about the vnycorne in thy forowe, to make hym plowe after the in the valleys? ¹¹ Mayest thou trust hym (because he is strong) or committe thy labour vnto hym? ¹² Mayest thou beleue hym, that he wyll bringe home thy corne, or to cary any thyng vnto thy barne? ¹³ Gauest thou the fayre wynges vnto the pecockes, or wynges & fethers vnto the storke? ¹⁴ For he leaueth hys egges in the earth and layeth them in the dust. ¹⁵ He remembreth not, that they myght be troden wyth fete, or broken wyth some wylde beast. ¹⁶ So harde is he vnto hys yonge ones, as though they were not hys, and laboureth in vayne wythout any feare. ¹⁷ And that because God hath taken wysdome from hym, & hath not geuen hym vnderstandynge. ¹⁸ When hys tyme is that he flyeth vp on hye, he careth nether for horse ner man. ¹⁹ Hast thou geuen the horsse hys strength, or lerned him to bowe downe his neck wt feare: ²⁰ that he letteth hym selfe be dryuen forth lyke a greshopper, where as the stoute neynge that he maketh, is fearfull? ²¹ he breaketh the grounde with the hoffes of his fete chearfully in his strength, and runneth to mete the harnest men. ²² He layeth asyde all feare, hys stomack is not abated, nether starteth he a back for any swerde. ²³ Though the quyuers rattle vpon him, though the speare and shilde glystre: ²⁴ yet russheth he in fearsely, and beateth vpon the grounde. He feareth not the noyse of the trompettes, ²⁵ but as soone as he heareth the shawmes blowe, tush (sayeth he) for he smelleth the battel a farre of, the noyse, the captaynes and the shoutinge. ²⁶ Commeth it thorow thy wysdome, that the Goshauke flyeth towarde the South? ²⁷ Doth the Aegle mount vp, and make hys nest on hye at thy commaundement? ²⁸ He abydeth in the stony rockes, and vpon the hye toppes of harde mountaynes, where no man can come. ²⁹ From thence seketh he his praye, & loketh farre about with hys eyes. ³⁰ Hys younge ones are fed with bloud: & where any deed body lyeth, there is he immediatly.
