Jay P. Green's Literal Translation 1993
| 39:1 | Do you know the time when the wild goats of the rock bear? Do you observe the calving of deer? |
| 39:2 | Can you tell the months they fulfill; or do you know the time for their bearing, |
| 39:3 | when they crouch and bring forth; they send out their pangs? |
| 39:4 | Their young ones are strong; they multiply with grain; they go forth and do not return to them. |
| 39:5 | Who has sent out the wild ass free, or who has untied the bands of the wild ass? |
| 39:6 | To whom I have assigned the desert for his home, and the salt land for his dwellings? |
| 39:7 | He laughs at the turmoil of the city; he does not hear the driver's shouts; |
| 39:8 | he seeks out mountains for his pasture; and he searches after every green thing. |
| 39:9 | Will the wild ox consent to be your servant, or spend the night by your feed-trough? |
| 39:10 | Can you tie the wild ox in the furrow with his rope? Or will he harrow the valleys for you? |
| 39:11 | Will you trust him because his strength is great; or will you leave your labor to him? |
| 39:12 | Or will you have faith in him, that he will return your seed, and gather it to your grain-floor? |
| 39:13 | The wing of the ostriches flap joyously, though not like the stork's pinions for flight. |
| 39:14 | For she leaves her eggs to the earth, and lets them warm on the dust; |
| 39:15 | and forgets that a foot may crush it, or the beast of the field may trample it; |
| 39:16 | she treats her young roughly, as if not hers; for her labor is vanity without fear; |
| 39:17 | because God has made her forget wisdom; and He has not given to her a share in understanding. |
| 39:18 | At the time she lifts up on high, she laughs at the horse and its rider. |
| 39:19 | Have you given the horse its strength: have you clothed its neck with a mane |
| 39:20 | Can you make him leap like a locust; the majesty of his snorting is terrifying? |
| 39:21 | They paw in the valley and he rejoices in his strength; he goes out to meet the weapons; |
| 39:22 | he mocks at fear, and is not terrified; and he does not turn back from the sword. |
| 39:23 | The quiver rattles against him, the flashing spear and the javelin. |
| 39:24 | He swallows the ground with quivering and trembling, and he does not stand still for the sound of the ram's horn. |
| 39:25 | When the ram's horn sounds , he says, Aha! And he smells the battle from a distance, the thunder of the captains, and the shouting. |
| 39:26 | Does the hawk soar from your understanding? Will he spread his wings toward the south? |
| 39:27 | Or does the eagle mount up at your mouth, and make his nest on high? |
| 39:28 | He lives and stays on the rock, on the crag of the rock and the stronghold. |
| 39:29 | From there he seeks food; his eyes see afar off. |
| 39:30 | And his young brood also sucks up blood; and where the pierced ones are , there he is . |
