11Wilt thou trust him, because his strength is great? Or wilt thou leave to him thy labor?

12Wilt thou confide in him, that he will bring home thy seed, And gather [the grain] of thy threshing-floor?

13The wings of the ostrich wave proudly; [But] are they the pinions and plumage of love?

14For she leaveth her eggs on the earth, And warmeth them in the dust,

15And forgetteth that the foot may crush them, Or that the wild beast may trample them.

16She dealeth hardly with her young ones, as if they were not hers: Though her labor be in vain, [she is] without fear;

17Because God hath deprived her of wisdom, Neither hath he imparted to her understanding.
