Job 39:13 in context

  1. 11Will you trust him, because his strength is great?
    Or will you leave to him your labor?
  2. 12Will you confide in him, that he will bring home your seed,
    and gather the grain of your threshing floor?
  3. 13“The wings of the ostrich wave proudly;
    but are they the feathers and plumage of love?
  4. 14For she leaves her eggs on the earth,
    warms them in the dust,
  5. 15and forgets that the foot may crush them,
    or that the wild animal may trample them.
