Can you hold the wild ox in the furrow with his harness? Or will he till the valleys after you?
11
Will you trust him, because his strength is great? Or will you leave to him your labor?
12
Will you confide in him, that he will bring home your seed, And gather the grain of your threshing floor?

"The wings of the bas haya`anah wave proudly; But are they the pinions and plumage of love?
14
For she leaves her eggs on the eretz, Warms them in the dust,
15
And forgets that the foot may crush them, Or that the wild animal may trample them.
16
She deals harshly with her young ones, as if they were not hers. Though her labor is in vain, she is without fear,
17
Because God has deprived her of wisdom, Neither has he imparted to her understanding.
18
When she lifts up herself on high, She scorns the horse and his rider.
19
"Have you given the horse might? Have you clothed his neck with a quivering mane?
20
Have you made him to leap as a arbeh? The glory of his snorting is awesome.
