Job 39:13
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
The wings of the ostrich flap joyfully, but cannot match the pinions and feathers of the stork.
In context
11 Can you rely on his great strength? Will you leave your hard work to him?
12 Can you trust him to bring in your grain and gather it to your threshing floor?
13 The wings of the ostrich flap joyfully, but cannot match the pinions and feathers of the stork.
14 For she leaves her eggs on the ground and lets them warm in the sand.
15 She forgets that a foot may crush them, or a wild animal may trample them.
