Job 39

Job 39:1

Knowest thou] Having spoken of the Lion, and of the Raven; Jehovah addes more in this Chapter of the wilde Goat; of the Hinde, ver. 1,—4. Of the wilde Asse, ver. 5,—8. Of the Unicorne, ver. 9,—12. Of the Peacock, and Ostrich, ver. 13,—18. Of the Horse, ver. 19,—25. Of the Hawk, ver. 26.

Of the Eagle, ver. 27,—30. God shewes his power in these; in making and ordering them; in his Provision for them, which men take no care for, nor cannot effect; in the extraordinary strength, and other qualities, which he hath bestowed upon them, in some whereof they farre excel men. In all which particulars Iobs weaknesse, and insufficiency doth more then sufficiently appear And will Iob then contend and debate his quarrel with God? this God? reprove him? or think to apprehend, or comprehend the invisible reasons of his proceedings?
