In context
5 Who has let the ass of the fields go free? or made loose the bands of the loud-voiced beast?
6 To whom I have given the waste land for a heritage, and the salt land as a living-place.
7 He makes sport of the noise of the town; the voice of the driver does not come to his ears;
8 He goes looking for his grass-lands in the mountains, searching out every green thing.
9 Will the ox of the mountains be your servant? or is his night's resting-place by your food-store?
10 Will he be pulling your plough with cords, turning up the valleys after you?
11 Will you put your faith in him, because his strength is great? will you give the fruit of your work into his care?
