12 Do you expect him to bring in your harvestand gather the grain from your threshing place?
13 How fast the wings of an ostrich beat!But no ostrich can fly like a stork.
14 The ostrich leaves her eggs on the groundfor the heat in the soil to warm them.
15 She is unaware that a foot may crush themor a wild animal break them.
16 She acts as if the eggs were not hers,and is unconcerned that her efforts were wasted.
17 It was I who made her foolishand did not give her wisdom.
18 But when she begins to run,she can laugh at any horse and rider.
