King James Version with Apocrypha
"Gavest thou the goodly wings unto the peacocks? or wings and feathers unto the ostrich?"
— Job 39:13, King James Version with Apocrypha
“Gavest thou the goodly wings unto the peacocks? or wings and feathers unto the ostrich?”
“ The wings of the ostrich wave proudly; But are they the pinions and plumage of love? ”
“"The wings of the ostrich wave proudly; but are they the feathers and plumage of love?”
““The wings of the ostrich flap with joy, but are they the pinions and plumage of a stork?”
“The wing of the ostrich is like the wings of the heron, and of the hawk.”
“Is the wing of the ostrich feeble, or is it because she has no feathers,”
Canst thou bind the unicorn with his band in the furrow? or will he harrow the valleys after thee?
Wilt thou trust him, because his strength is great? or wilt thou leave thy labour to him?
Wilt thou believe him, that he will bring home thy seed, and gather it into thy barn?
Gavest thou the goodly wings unto the peacocks? or wings and feathers unto the ostrich?
Which leaveth her eggs in the earth, and warmeth them in dust,
And forgetteth that the foot may crush them, or that the wild beast may break them.
She is hardened against her young ones, as though they were not hers: her labour is in vain without fear;
