Chapter 39 of Job—King James Version (KJV)

  1. ¶ Knowest thou the time when the wild goats of the rock bring forth? or canst thou mark when the hinds do calve?
  2. ¶ Canst thou number the months that they fulfil? or knowest thou the time when they bring forth?
  3. ¶ They bow themselves, they bring forth their young ones, they cast out their sorrows.
  4. ¶ Their young ones are in good liking, they grow up with corn; they go forth, and return not unto them.
  5. ¶ Who hath sent out the wild ass free? or who hath loosed the bands of the wild ass?
  6. ¶ Whose house I have made the wilderness, and the barren land his dwellings.
  7. ¶ He scorneth the multitude of the city, neither regardeth he the crying of the driver.
  8. ¶ The range of the mountains is his pasture, and he searcheth after every green thing.
  9. ¶ Will the unicorn be willing to serve thee, or abide by thy crib?
  10. ¶ Canst thou bind the unicorn with his band in the furrow? or will he harrow the valleys after thee?
  11. ¶ Wilt thou trust him, because his strength is great? or wilt thou leave thy labour to him?
  12. ¶ Wilt thou believe him, that he will bring home thy seed, and gather it into thy barn?
  13. Gavest thou the goodly wings unto the peacocks? or wings and feathers unto the ostrich?
  14. ¶ Which leaveth her eggs in the earth, and warmeth them in dust,
  15. ¶ And forgetteth that the foot may crush them, or that the wild beast may break them.
  16. ¶ She is hardened against her young ones, as though they were not hers: her labour is in vain without fear;
  17. ¶ Because God hath deprived her of wisdom, neither hath he imparted to her understanding.
  18. ¶ What time she lifteth up herself on high, she scorneth the horse and his rider.
  19. ¶ Hast thou given the horse strength? hast thou clothed his neck with thunder?
  20. ¶ Canst thou make him afraid as a grasshopper? the glory of his nostrils is terrible.
  21. ¶ He paweth in the valley, and rejoiceth in his strength: he goeth on to meet the armed men.
  22. ¶ He mocketh at fear, and is not affrighted; neither turneth he back from the sword.
  23. ¶ The quiver rattleth against him, the glittering spear and the shield.
  24. ¶ He swalloweth the ground with fierceness and rage: neither believeth he that it is the sound of the trumpet.
  25. ¶ He saith among the trumpets, Ha, ha; and he smelleth the battle afar off, the thunder of the captains, and the shouting.
  26. ¶ Doth the hawk fly by thy wisdom, and stretch her wings toward the south?
  27. ¶ Doth the eagle mount up at thy command, and make her nest on high?
  28. ¶ She dwelleth and abideth on the rock, upon the crag of the rock, and the strong place.
  29. ¶ From thence she seeketh the prey, and her eyes behold afar off.
  30. ¶ Her young ones also suck up blood: and where the slain are, there is she.

    When i do read some comments and seeing that its the same people that are supposed to be called believers but are talking ill of other denominations, it hurts. Let us all remember that We should judge not

      The bible tells us to test the spirits. Satan disguises himself as angel of light. So yes some denomination are not teaching the truth. You are responsible for judging which ones are not. You have to judge the truth at all times. this is what the bible teaches

    The NWT is a very good translation. Dr. Jason David BeDuhn PhD attests to that in his book Truth in Translation. drive.google.com/...5p16melHzg8/view

      The NWT is Satanic filth to its very core.

      The JW Cult is Satanic to its very core.

      Praise Yahweh I will never be a victim of JW brainwashing. If I burn in Hell for eternity or I am ultimately annihilated so be it

      May Yahweh's curse rest on the Watchtower Society and its Satanic leadership

      NWT is a false translation that takes away from the deity of Jesus !

    Thank you for taking the time to provide this service. I like seeing the NASB on your web page in the same format as I read on paper. On other sites, the text area is smaller, and so I have to keep scrolling down to read and sometimes I lose the context. So I really appreciate the format.

    As far as the NWT, you are certainly free to do whatever you think best with your own web pages. I'd suggest that you make a note anytime you have a translation that is associated with only one denomination or church, for example:
    New World Translation (Jehovah's Witness version).

    In Jesus' parable of the wheat and the tares. the main idea seems to be that you can't easily distinguish between God's people and not-God's people on this earth, so our Lord's response is to wait until they are shown to be the kind of people they are inside. But the NWT seems like false teaching to me. So I think the warning passages from Jesus' apostles are more applicable, as in 2 Peter 3:15-16, when he talks about Paul's writings:
    "There are some things in them that are hard to understand, which the ignorant and unstable twist to their own destruction, as they do the other Scriptures."
    And we also have the positive exhortations, as in 2 Timothy 2:15:
    "Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who has no need to be ashamed, rightly handling the word of truth."

      Your suggestion regarding the denominational flagging is duly noted. But I can’t help but wonder, wouldn’t a Catholic also want “Protestant versions” marked as well?

      As for the parable, I’m pretty sure the slaves were convinced in their own minds that they could tell the tares from the wheat. After all, aren’t they the ones who identified the problem in the first place? But the master obviously thought otherwise.

      Furthermore, even at the time when Jesus himself was walking the earth, not everybody who claimed fellowship actually followed him causing John to inquire at Mark 9:39, “Teacher, we saw someone casting out demons in Your name, and we tried to prevent him because he was not following us.” But Jesus said, “Do not hinder him . . . for he who is not against us is for us.”

    Hello, question.. why have you included the NWT with other legitimate bible translations? Or why have you not atleast included a warning to readers? Don't you fear that someone could be influenced by the Watchtower's intentional heresies? Thank you.

      Please site these intentional heresies. I am well versed in the watch tower outline and agree they are in many ways incorrect but i also bet i can point many out from EVERY established or main denomination. There is much to learn from them all as one who drinks milk?

      Judge not lest ye be judged, that is not to pass judgement on you either brother.

      I debate with scripture. I don't hold it to be true that Michael is Y'Shua HaMeshiach but I also firmly hold it to be true that our G-d and Heavenly Father are not the word encarnate and only begotten son.

      I love not seeing "lord" which i relate to baal. I feel the catholic church is a satanic establishment and I am aware a freemason started the hovies but there are evil in high places and our fight is also with principalities.

      What i'm saying is that in my darkest hours, those two were some of if not the only ones who would bring a Bible and eucharist and pray with me.

      We all fall short of the glory of G-d.

      Don't forget the NWT was recognized as the most accurate translation on Jeopardy.

      Lastly, this is different I noted than the NWT i have read and am very familiar with. Pull up the watchtower page and compare. I truly look forward to getting this one!
