Job 39:14-24

14 quando derelinquit in terra ova sua tu forsitan in pulvere calefacis ea
15 obliviscitur quod pes conculcet ea aut bestiae agri conterant
16 duratur ad filios suos quasi non sint sui frustra laboravit nullo timore cogente
17 privavit enim eam Deus sapientia nec dedit illi intellegentiam
18 cum tempus fuerit in altum alas erigit deridet equitem et ascensorem eius
19 numquid praebebis equo fortitudinem aut circumdabis collo eius hinnitum
20 numquid suscitabis eum quasi lucustas gloria narium eius terror
21 terram ungula fodit exultat audacter in occursum pergit armatis
22 contemnit pavorem nec cedit gladio
23 super ipsum sonabit faretra vibrabit hasta et clypeus
24 fervens et fremens sorbet terram nec reputat tubae sonare clangorem

Job 39:14-24 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO JOB 39

This chapter treats of various creatures, beasts and birds, which Job had little knowledge of, had no concern in the making of them, and scarcely any power over them; as of the goats and hinds, Job 39:1-4; of the wild ass, Job 39:5-8; of the unicorn, Job 39:9-12; of the peacock and ostrich, Job 39:13-18; of the horse, Job 39:19-25; and of the hawk and eagle, Job 39:26-30.
