¹³ “The wings of the ostrich flap joyfully,
    though they cannot compare
    with the wings and feathers of the stork.^(A)
14 She lays her eggs on the ground
    and lets them warm in the sand,
¹⁵ unmindful that a foot may crush them,
    that some wild animal may trample them.^(B)
16 She treats her young harshly,^(C) as if they were not hers;
    she cares not that her labor was in vain,
¹⁷ for God did not endow her with wisdom
    or give her a share of good sense.^(D)
18 Yet when she spreads her feathers to run,
    she laughs^(E) at horse and rider.

²⁶ “Does the hawk take flight by your wisdom
    and spread its wings toward the south?^(A)
27 Does the eagle soar at your command
    and build its nest on high?^(B)
