Job 39:28-35

28 in petris manet et in praeruptis silicibus commoratur atque inaccessis rupibus

29 inde contemplatur escam et de longe oculi eius prospiciunt

30 pulli eius lambent sanguinem et ubicumque cadaver fuerit statim adest

31 et adiecit Dominus et locutus est ad Iob

32 numquid qui contendit cum Deo tam facile conquiescit utique qui arguit Deum debet respondere ei

33 respondens autem Iob Domino dixit

34 qui leviter locutus sum respondere quid possum manum meam ponam super os meum

35 unum locutus sum quod utinam non dixissem et alterum quibus ultra non addam

Job 39:28-35 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.
