Ps 29.9
“Do you know when the mountain goats give birth?
Do you observe the calving of the deer?
2Can you number the months that they fulfill,
and do you know the time when they give birth,
3 #
1 Sam 4.19
when they crouch to give birth to their offspring
and are delivered of their young?
4Their young ones become strong; they grow up in the open;
they go forth and do not return to them.

Job 6.5; 11.12; 24.5 “Who has let the wild ass go free?
Who has loosed the bonds of the swift ass,

Job 24.5; Ps 107.34; Jer 2.24; Hos 8.9 to which I have given the steppe for its home,
the salt land for its dwelling place?
7It scorns the tumult of the city;
it does not hear the shouts of the driver.
8It ranges the mountains as its pasture,
and it searches after every green thing.
9 #
Num 23.22; Deut 33.17 “Is the wild ox willing to serve you?
Will it spend the night at your crib?
10Can you tie it in the furrow with ropes,
or will it harrow the valleys after you?
11Will you depend on it because its strength is great,
and will you hand over your labor to it?
12Do you have faith in it that it will return
and bring your grain to your threshing floor?#39.12 Heb your grain and your threshing floor
13“The ostrich’s wings flap wildly,
though its pinions lack plumage.#39.13 Meaning of Heb uncertain
14For it leaves its eggs to the earth
and lets them be warmed on the ground,
15forgetting that a foot may crush them
and that a wild animal may trample them.

though its labor should be in vain, yet it has no fear;
17 #
Job 35.11
because God has made it forget wisdom
and given it no share in understanding.
18When it spreads its plumes aloft,#39.18 Meaning of Heb uncertain

Its majestic snorting is terrible.
21 #
Jer 8.6
It paws#39.21 Gk Syr Vg: Heb they dig violently, exults mightily;
it goes out to meet the weapons.
22It laughs at fear and is not dismayed;
it does not turn back from the sword.
23Upon it rattle the quiver,
the flashing spear, and the javelin.

it cannot stand still at the sound of the trumpet.
25 #
Josh 6.5; Am 1.14; 2.2 When the trumpet sounds, it says ‘Aha!’
From a distance it smells the battle,
the thunder of the captains, and the shouting.

and spreads its wings toward the south?
27 #

and makes its nest on high?
28It lives on the rock and makes its home
in the fastness of the rocky crag.

From there it spies the prey;
its eyes see it from far away.

and where the slain are, there it is.”
