KnowestH3045 thou the timeH6256 when the wild goatsH3277 of the rockH5553 bring forthH3205? or canst thou markH8104 when the hindsH355 do calveH2342?
Canst thou numberH5608 the monthsH3391 that they fulfilH4390? or knowestH3045 thou the timeH6256 when they bring forthH3205?
They bowH3766 themselves, they bring forthH6398 their young onesH3206, they cast outH7971 their sorrowsH2256.
Their young onesH1121 are in good likingH2492, they grow upH7235 with cornH1250; they go forthH3318, and returnH7725 not unto them.
Who hath sent outH7971 the wild assH6501 freeH2670? or who hath loosedH6605 the bandsH4147 of the wild assH6171?
Whose houseH1004 I have madeH7760 the wildernessH6160, and the barrenH4420 land his dwellingsH4908. {barren…: Heb. salt places}
He scornethH7832 the multitudeH1995 of the cityH7151, neither regardethH8085 he the cryingH8663 of the driverH5065. {of the driver: Heb. of the exactor}
The rangeH3491 of the mountainsH2022 is his pastureH4829, and he searchethH1875 afterH310 every green thingH3387.
Will the unicornH7214 be willingH14 to serveH5647 thee, or abideH3885 by thy cribH18?
Canst thou bindH7194 the unicornH7214 with his bandH5688 in the furrowH8525? or will he harrowH7702 the valleysH6010 afterH310 thee?
Wilt thou trustH982 him, because his strengthH3581 is greatH7227? or wilt thou leaveH5800 thy labourH3018 to him?
Wilt thou believeH539 him, that he will bring homeH7725+H7725 thy seedH2233, and gatherH622 it into thy barnH1637?
Gavest thou the goodlyH7443 wingsH3671 unto the peacocksH5965? or wingsH84 and feathersH2624 unto the ostrichH5133? {wings and…: or, the feathers of the stork and ostrich}
Which leavethH5800 her eggsH1000 in the earthH776, and warmethH2552 them in dustH6083,
And forgettethH7911 that the footH7272 may crushH2115 them, or that the wildH7704 beastH2416 may breakH1758 them.
She is hardenedH7188 against her young onesH1121, as though they were notH3808 hers: her labourH3018 is in vainH7385 without fearH6343;
Because GodH433 hath deprivedH5382 her of wisdomH2451, neither hath he impartedH2505 to her understandingH998.
What timeH6256 she lifteth upH4754 herself on highH4791, she scornethH7832 the horseH5483 and his riderH7392.
Hast thou givenH5414 the horseH5483 strengthH1369? hast thou clothedH3847 his neckH6677 with thunderH7483?
Canst thou make him afraidH7493 as a grasshopperH697? the gloryH1935 of his nostrilsH5170 is terribleH367. {terrible: Heb. terror}
He pawethH2658 in the valleyH6010, and rejoicethH7797 in his strengthH3581: he goeth onH3318 to meetH7125 the armed menH5402. {He paweth: or, His feet dig} {the armed…: Heb. the armour}
He mockethH7832 at fearH6343, and is not affrightedH2865; neither turneth he backH7725 fromH6440 the swordH2719.
The quiverH827 rattlethH7439 against him, the glitteringH3851 spearH2595 and the shieldH3591.
He swallowethH1572 the groundH776 with fiercenessH7494 and rageH7267: neither believethH539 he that it is the soundH6963 of the trumpetH7782.
He saithH559 amongH1767 the trumpetsH7782, HaH1889, haH1889; and he smellethH7306 the battleH4421 afar offH7350, the thunderH7482 of the captainsH8269, and the shoutingH8643.
Doth the hawkH5322 flyH82 by thy wisdomH998, and stretchH6566 her wingsH3671 toward the southH8486?
Doth the eagleH5404 mount upH1361 at thy commandH6310, and makeH7311 her nestH7064 on highH7311? {at…: Heb. by thy mouth}
She dwellethH7931 and abidethH3885 on the rockH5553, upon the cragH8127 of the rockH5553, and the strong placeH4686.
From thence she seekethH2658 the preyH400, and her eyesH5869 beholdH5027 afar offH7350.
Her young onesH667 also suck upH5966 bloodH1818: and where the slainH2491 are, there is sheH1931.

Even the sea monstersH8577 draw outH2502 the breastH7699, they give suckH3243 to their young onesH1482: the daughterH1323 of my peopleH5971 is become cruelH393, like the ostrichesH3283 in the wildernessH4057. {sea…: or, sea calves}
The tenderH7390 and delicateH6028 woman among you, which would not adventureH5254 to setH3322 the soleH3709 of her footH7272 upon the groundH776 for delicatenessH6026 and tendernessH7391, her eyeH5869 shall be evilH3415 toward the husbandH376 of her bosomH2436, and toward her sonH1121, and toward her daughterH1323,
The labourH5999 of the foolishH3684 weariethH3021 every one of them, because he knowethH3045 not how to goH3212 to the cityH5892.
And toward her young oneH7988 that cometh outH3318 from between her feetH7272, and toward her childrenH1121 which she shall bearH3205: for she shall eatH398 them for wantH2640 of all things secretlyH5643 in the siegeH4692 and straitnessH4689, wherewith thine enemyH341 shall distressH6693 thee in thy gatesH8179. {young one: Heb. afterbirth}
Behold, is it not of the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 that the peopleH5971 shall labourH3021 in the veryH1767 fireH784, and the peopleH3816 shall wearyH3286 themselves for veryH1767 vanityH7385? {for…: or, in vain?}
Then spakeH559 the womanH802 whose the livingH2416 childH1121 was unto the kingH4428, for her bowelsH7356 yearnedH3648 upon her sonH1121, and she saidH559, OH994 my lordH113, giveH5414 her the livingH2416 childH3205, and in no wiseH4191 slayH4191 it. But the other saidH559, Let it be neither mine nor thine, but divideH1504 it. {yearned: Heb. were hot}
Then the kingH4428 answeredH6030 and saidH559, GiveH5414 her the livingH2416 childH3205, and in no wiseH4191 slayH4191 it: she is the motherH517 thereof.
And the kingH4428 saidH559 unto her, What aileth thee? And she answeredH559, This womanH802 saidH559 unto me, GiveH5414 thy sonH1121, that we may eatH398 him to dayH3117, and we will eatH398 my sonH1121 to morrowH4279.
So we boiledH1310 my sonH1121, and did eatH398 him: and I saidH559 unto her on the nextH312 dayH3117, GiveH5414 thy sonH1121, that we may eatH398 him: and she hath hidH2244 her sonH1121. {next: Heb. other}
BeholdH7200, O LORDH3068, and considerH5027 to whom thou hast doneH5953 thisH3541. Shall the womenH802 eatH398 their fruitH6529, and childrenH5768 of a span longH2949? shall the priestH3548 and the prophetH5030 be slainH2026 in the sanctuaryH4720 of the LordH136? {of a span…: or, swaddled with their hands?}
