Job 39:15

15 (39-18) Y olvídase de que los pisará el pie, Y que los quebrará bestia del campo.

Job 39:15 Meaning and Commentary

Job 39:15

And forgetteth that the foot may crush them
The foot of the traveller, they being laid in the ground, where he may walk, or on the sand of the seashore, where he may tread and trample upon them unawares, and crush them to pieces; to prevent which this creature has no foresight;

or that the wild beast may break them;
supposing they may be, though not where men walk, yet where wild beasts frequent, they may be as easily broken by the one as the other; against which it guards not, having no instinct in nature, as some creatures have, to direct to the preservation of them.

Job 39:15 In-Context

13 (39-16) ¿Diste tú hermosas alas al pavo real, O alas y plumas al avestruz?

14 (39-17) El cual desampara en la tierra sus huevos, Y sobre el polvo los calienta,

15 (39-18) Y olvídase de que los pisará el pie, Y que los quebrará bestia del campo.

16 (39-19) Endurécese para con sus hijos, como si no fuesen suyos, No temiendo que su trabajo haya sido en vano:

17 (39-20) Porque le privó Dios de sabiduría, Y no le dió inteligencia.
