39 “Can you hunt the prey for the lion,
    or (A)satisfy the appetite of the young lions,
40 when they crouch in their (B)dens
    or lie in wait (C)in their thicket?
41 Who provides for (D)the raven its prey,
    when its young ones cry to God for help,
    and wander about for lack of food?

39 “Do you know when (E)the mountain goats give birth?
    Do you observe (F)the calving of the does?
Can you number the months that they fulfill,
    and do you know the time when they give birth,
when they (G)crouch, bring forth their offspring,
    and are delivered of their young?
Their young ones become strong; they grow up in the open;
    they go out and (H)do not return to them.
