13. “The wings of the ostrich flap joyously, but are they the pinions and plumage of a stork?
14. For she leaves her eggs on the ground and lets them warm in the soil,
15. and forgets that a foot may crush them, that a wild beast may trample them.
16. She treats her young ones harshly, as if they were not hers; She is not concerned that her labor was in vain,
17. for God did not endow her with wisdom or give her a share of understanding.
18. When she lifts herself to flee she laughs at the horse and its rider.
19. “Do you give the horse its strength? Do you clothe his neck with a mane?
20. Do you cause him to leap like locust? His majestic snorting is terrifying!
21. He paws in the valley and exalting in his strength he charges into the fray.
22. He laughs at fear and is not dismayed; he does not recoil from the sword.
