18:039:012 Wilt thou believe him, that he will bring
home thy seed, and
gather
it into thy barn?
18:039:013 Gavest thou the goodly wings unto the peacocks?
or wings and
feathers
unto the ostrich?
18:039:014 Which leaveth her eggs in the earth, and warmeth them in dust,
18:039:015 And forgetteth that the foot may crush
them, or that the wild
beast
may break them.
18:039:016 She is hardened against her young ones,
as though they were
not
her’s: her labour is in vain without fear;
18:039:017 Because God hath deprived her of wisdom,
neither hath he
imparted
to her understanding.
18:039:018 What time she lifteth up herself on high,
she scorneth the
horse
and his rider.
18:039:019 Hast thou given the horse strength? hast
thou clothed his neck
with
thunder?
18:039:020 Canst thou make him afraid as a grasshopper?
the glory of his
nostrils
is terrible.
18:039:021 He paweth in the valley, and rejoiceth
in his strength: he
goeth
on to meet the armed men.
18:039:022 He mocketh at fear, and is not affrighted;
neither turneth he
back
from the sword.
18:039:023 The quiver rattleth against him, the glittering
spear and the
shield.
18:039:024 He swalloweth the ground with fierceness
and rage: neither
believeth
he that it is the sound of the trumpet.
18:039:025 He saith among the trumpets, Ha, ha; and
he smelleth the
battle
afar off, the thunder of the captains, and the
shouting.
18:039:026 Doth the hawk fly by thy wisdom, and stretch
her wings toward
the
south?
18:039:027 Doth the eagle mount up at thy command,
and make her nest on
high?
18:039:028 She dwelleth and abideth on the rock, upon
the crag of the
rock,
and the strong place.
18:039:029 From thence she seeketh the prey, and her
eyes behold afar
off.
18:039:030 Her young ones also suck up blood:
and where the slain are,
there
is she.
18:040:001 Moreover the lord answered Job, and said,
18:040:002 Shall he that contendeth with the Almighty
instruct him? he
that
reproveth God, let him answer it.
18:040:003 Then Job answered the lord, and said,
18:040:004 Behold, I am vile; what shall I answer
thee? I will lay mine
hand
upon my mouth.
18:040:005 Once have I spoken; but I will not answer:
yea, twice; but I
will
proceed no further.
18:040:006 Then answered the lord unto Job out
of the whirlwind, and
said,
18:040:007 Gird up thy loins now like a man:
I will demand of thee, and
declare
thou unto me.
