“Who has sent out the wild donkey free?
    Or who has loosed the bands of the wild donkey,
whose home I have made the wilderness,
    and the barren land his dwelling?
He scorns the multitude in the city
    and does not regard the shouts of the driver.
The range of the mountains is his pasture,
    and he searches after every green thing.

“Will the wild ox be willing to serve you
    or spend the night by your manger?
10 Can you bind the wild ox in the furrow with ropes?
    Or will he plow the valleys behind you?
11 Will you trust him because his strength is great?
    Or will you leave your labor to him?
12 Will you trust him to bring home your grain
    and gather it into your barn?

12 Wilt thou believe him, that he will bring home the seed and gather it into thy barn?
