An ox hath known its owner, And an ass the crib of its master, Israel hath not known, My people hath not understood.

Happy are ye sowing by all waters, Sending forth the foot of the ox and the ass!

And he hath seen a chariot -- a couple of horsemen, The rider of an ass, the rider of a camel, And he hath given attention -- He hath increased attention!

Before she is pained she hath brought forth, Before a pang cometh to her, She hath delivered a male.
