Job 39:4 Context
2Canst thou number the moneths that they fulfill? or knowest thou the time when they bring forth? 3They bowe themselues, they bring forth their young ones, they cast out their sorrowes. 4Their yong ones are in good liking, they grow vp with corne: they go forth, and returne not vnto them. 5Who hath sent out the wild asse free? or who hath looosed the bands of the wild asse? 6Whose house I haue made the wildernesse, and the barren lande his dwellings.
