Job 39:10

The Scriptures 1998

O inhabitant of Laḵ

“The ploughers ploughed on my back, They made their furrows long.”

Would you play with him as with a bird? Or leash him for your young girls?

Who set the wild donkey free? Who loosed the bonds of the wild donkey,

And a messenger came to Iyoḇ

“Ě

Would the wild ox be pleased to serve you? Or spend the night by your feeding trough?

Would you rely on his great strength? Or would you leave your labour to him?
