Job 39:5-8

New Catholic Bible

⁵ “Who has given the wild donkey its freedom?
    Who has untied its ropes?
⁶ I gave it the wastelands as its home
    and the salt flats for its dwelling.
⁷ It scorns the noise of the city;
    it is not forced to obey a driver’s shouted order.
⁸ The mountains are the pasture over which it ranges
    in search of any green foliage.
