5 “Who gives the wild donkey its freedom?Who untied its ropes?
6 I have placed it in the wilderness;its home is the wasteland.
7 It hates the noise of the cityand has no driver to shout at it.
8 The mountains are its pastureland,where it searches for every blade of grass.
9 “Will the wild ox consent to being tamed?Will it spend the night in your stall?
10 Can you hitch a wild ox to a plow?Will it plow a field for you?
11 Given its strength, can you trust it?Can you leave and trust the ox to do your work?
