Job 39:8

⁶ I made the wilderness his home and the salt flats his dwelling.

⁷ He scorns the tumult of the city and never hears the shouts of a driver.

He roams the mountains for pasture, searching for any green thing.

⁹ Will the wild ox consent to serve you? Will he stay by your manger at night?

¹⁰ Can you hold him to the furrow with a harness? Will he plow the valleys behind you?
