³ An ox knows its owner,
And a donkey its master’s manger,
But Israel ^(A)does not know,
My people ^(B)do not understand.”

⁷ Even the stork in the sky
^(A)Knows her seasons;
And the ^(B)turtledove, the swallow, and the crane
Keep to the time of their ^[a]migration;
But ^(C)My people do not know
The judgment of the Lord.
