Job 39:16-18
International Children’s Bible

16 The ostrich is cruel to her young, as if they were not even hers.
    She does not care that her work is for nothing.
17 This is because God did not give the ostrich wisdom.
    God did not give her a share of good sense.
18 But when the ostrich gets up to run, she is so fast
    that she laughs at the horse and its rider.

New International Version

16 She treats her young harshly,(A) 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.(B)
18 Yet when she spreads her feathers to run,
    she laughs(C) at horse and rider.
