In context
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.
16 She treats her young harshly, as if not her own, with no concern that her labor was in vain.
17 For God has deprived her of wisdom; He has not endowed her with understanding.
18 Yet when she proudly spreads her wings, she laughs at the horse and its rider.
19 Do you give strength to the horse or adorn his neck with a mane?
