New Living Translation (NLT)
Job 39
12 Can you rely on it to bring home your grain and deliver it to your threshing floor?
13 “The ostrich flaps her wings grandly, but they are no match for the feathers of the stork.
14 She lays her eggs on top of the earth, letting them be warmed in the dust.
15 She doesn’t worry that a foot might crush them or a wild animal might destroy them.
16 She is harsh toward her young, as if they were not her own. She doesn’t care if they die.
17 For God has deprived her of wisdom. He has given her no understanding.
18 But whenever she jumps up to run, she passes the swiftest horse with its rider.
19 “Have you given the horse its strength or clothed its neck with a flowing mane?
20 Did you give it the ability to leap like a locust? Its majestic snorting is terrifying!
21 It paws the earth and rejoices in its strength when it charges out to battle.
22 It laughs at fear and is unafraid. It does not run from the sword.
We pray that this ministry will be a blessing to you and your family.
