39 “Do you know the time when the mountain goats give birth?
    Do you watch when the doe bears fawns?
Can you count the months that they fulfill?
    Or do you know the time when they give birth?
They bow themselves. They bear their young.
    They end their labor pains.
Their young ones become strong.
    They grow up in the open field.
    They go out, and don’t return again.

    and deliver their offspring.

    then leave home and never return.
