Job 39:13-17
English Standard Version
13 “The wings of the ostrich wave proudly,
but are they the pinions and plumage of love?[a]
14 For she leaves her eggs to the earth
and lets them be warmed on the ground,
15 forgetting that a foot may crush them
and that the wild beast may trample them.
16 She (A)deals cruelly with her young, as if they were not hers;
though her (B)labor be in vain, yet she has no fear,
17 because God has made her forget wisdom
and (C)given her no share in understanding.
