12 Can you rely on it to bring back your grainto gather into your threshing floor?
13 The ostrich’s wings flap joyously,but her wings and plumage are like a stork.
14 She leaves her eggs on the earth,lets them warm in the dust,
15 then forgets that a foot may crush themor a wild animal trample them.
16 She treats her young harshly as if they were not hers,without worrying that her labor might be in vain;
17 God didn’t endow her with sense,didn’t give her some good sense.
18 When she flaps her wings high,she laughs at horse and rider.
