Bible in Basic English
Previous Chapter Previous Verse Full Chapter Next Verse Next Chapter
1 Do you go after food for the she-lion, or get meat so that the young lions may have enough,
2 When they are stretched out in their holes, and are waiting in the brushwood?
3 Who gives in the evening the meat he is searching for, when his young ones are crying to God; when the young lions with loud noise go wandering after their food?
4 Have you knowledge of the rock-goats? or do you see the roes giving birth to their young?
5 Is the number of their months fixed by you? or is the time when they give birth ordered by you?
6 They are bent down, they give birth to their young, they let loose the fruit of their body.
7 Their young ones are strong, living in the open country; they go out and do not come back again.
