Job 39:16

39:16 She is harsh ¹  with her young,

as if they were not hers;

she is unconcerned

about the uselessness of her labor.

Job 39:18

39:18 But as soon as she springs up, ² 

she laughs at the horse and its rider.

Job 41:33

41:33 The likes of it is not on earth,

a creature ³  without fear.

[39:16]  ¹ sn This verb, “to deal harshly; to harden; to treat cruelly,” is used for hardening the heart elsewhere (see Isa 63:17).

[39:18]  ² tn The colon poses a slight problem here. The literal meaning of the Hebrew verb translated “springs up” (i.e., “lifts herself on high”) might suggest flight. But some of the proposals involve a reading about readying herself to run.

[41:33]  ³ tn Heb “one who was made.”
