Job 39:13-18 - The Ostrich

¹³ “The ostriches’ wings flap joyously
With the pinion and plumage of love,
¹⁴ For she abandons her eggs to the earth
And warms them in the dust,
¹⁵ And she forgets that a foot may crush them,
Or that a wild beast may trample them.
¹⁶ “She treats her young cruelly, as if they were not hers;
Though her labor be in vain, she is unconcerned;
¹⁷ Because God has made her forget wisdom,
And has not given her a share of understanding.
¹⁸ “When she lifts herself on high,
She laughs at the horse and his rider.
