Job 39

KJ3 Literal Translation — Chapter 39 of 42

1 ¶ Do you know the time of the bearing of the goats of the rock? Do you observe the travailing of deer?

2 Can you tell the months they fulfill; or do you know the time for their bearing,

3 when they crouch and bring forth; they send out their pangs?

4 Their sons become strong; they multiply with grain; they go forth and do not return to them.
