Job 39:1-6

Listen to Job 39:1-6
1 “Do you know when the wild goats give birth? Have you watched as deer are born in the wild?
2 Do you know how many months they carry their young? Are you aware of the time of their delivery?
3 They crouch down to give birth to their young and deliver their offspring.
4 Their young grow up in the open fields, then leave home and never return.
5 “Who gives the wild donkey its freedom? Who untied its ropes?
6 I have placed it in the wilderness; its home is the wasteland.
