[2 ](/kjv/job/39/2) Canst thou number the months *that* they fulfil? or knowest thou the time when they bring forth? [3 ](/kjv/job/39/3) They bow themselves, they bring forth their young ones, they cast out their sorrows. [4 ](/kjv/job/39/4) Their young ones are in good liking, they grow up with corn; they go forth, and return not unto them. [5 ](/kjv/job/39/5) Who hath sent out the wild ass free? or who hath loosed the bands of the wild ass? [6 ](/kjv/job/39/6) Whose house I have made the wilderness, and the barren land his dwellings.* [7 ](/kjv/job/39/7) He scorneth the multitude of the city, neither regardeth he the crying of the driver.* [8 ](/kjv/job/39/8) The range of the mountains *is* his pasture, and he searcheth after every green thing. [9 ](/kjv/job/39/9) Will the unicorn be willing to serve thee, or abide by thy crib? [10 ](/kjv/job/39/10) Canst thou bind the unicorn with his band in the furrow? or will he harrow the valleys after thee? [11 ](/kjv/job/39/11) Wilt thou trust him, because his strength *is* great? or wilt thou leave thy labour to him? [12 ](/kjv/job/39/12) Wilt thou believe him, that he will bring home thy seed, and gather *it into* thy barn? [13 ](/kjv/job/39/13) *Gavest thou* the goodly wings unto the peacocks? or wings and feathers unto the ostrich?* [14 ](/kjv/job/39/14) Which leaveth her eggs in the earth, and warmeth them in dust, [15 ](/kjv/job/39/15) And forgetteth that the foot may crush them, or that the wild beast may break them. [16 ](/kjv/job/39/16) She is hardened against her young ones, as though *they were* not hers: her labour is in vain without fear; [17 ](/kjv/job/39/17) Because God hath deprived her of wisdom, neither hath he imparted to her understanding. [18 ](/kjv/job/39/18) What time she lifteth up herself on high, she scorneth the horse and his rider. [19 ](/kjv/job/39/19) Hast thou given the horse strength? hast thou clothed his neck with thunder? [20 ](/kjv/job/39/20) Canst thou make him afraid as a grasshopper? the glory of his nostrils *is* terrible.* [21 ](/kjv/job/39/21) He paweth in the valley, and rejoiceth in *his* strength: he goeth on to meet the armed men.** [Job 38](/kjv/job/38) [Job 40](/kjv/job/40) ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#website","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com","name":"Real Bible Believers","description":"RBB","publisher":{"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#/schema/person/e966585dde703268e7f6ae890ea98509"},"potentialAction":[{"@type":"SearchAction","target":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/search?q={search_term_string}","query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}],"inLanguage":"en-US"},{"@type":"ImageObject","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/kjv/job/39/1-18#primaryimage","inLanguage":"en-US","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/_app/immutable/assets/missing.C7wGMEZ6.jpg","contentUrl":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/_app/immutable/assets/missing.C7wGMEZ6.jpg","width":672,"height":448,"caption":"Real Bible Believers"},{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/kjv/job/39/1-18#webpage","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/kjv/job/39/1-18","name":"Job 39:1-18 KJV - \"Knowest thou the time when the wild go...\" | Real Bible Believers","isPartOf":{"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#website"},"primaryImageOfPage":{"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/kjv/job/39/1-18#primaryimage"},"author":{"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#/schema/person/e966585dde703268e7f6ae890ea98509"},"description":"\"Knowest thou the time when the wild goats of the rock bring forth? or canst thou mark when the hinds do calve?
