Job 39:16
“She deals harshly with her young ones, as if they were not hers. Though her labor is in vain, she is without fear,”
Verse in context — Job 39
14
For she leaves her eggs on the earth, warms them in the dust,
15
and forgets that the foot may crush them, or that the wild animal may trample them.
16
She deals harshly with her young ones, as if they were not hers. Though her labor is in vain, she is without fear,
17
because God has deprived her of wisdom, neither has he imparted to her understanding.
18
When she lifts up herself on high, she scorns the horse and his rider.
