41 Who provides food for the raven when its young cry out to God and wander about for lack of food?
41 Who provideth for the raven his food? when his young ones cry unto God, they wander for lack of meat.
41 Who provides for the raven its prey, when its young ones cry to God for help, and wander about for lack of food?
41 And who sets out food for the ravens when their young cry to God, fluttering about because they have no food?
41 Who provides food for the raven, When its young ones cry to God, And wander about for lack of food?
41 Who provides food for the ravens when their young cry out to God and wander about in hunger?
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Job 38:41
Commentary on Job 38:25-41
(Read Job 38:25-41)
Hitherto God had put questions to Job to show him his ignorance; now God shows his weakness. As it is but little that he knows, he ought not to arraign the Divine counsels; it is but little he can do, therefore he ought not to oppose the ways of Providence. See the all-sufficiency of the Divine Providence; it has wherewithal to satisfy the desire of every living thing. And he that takes care of the young ravens, certainly will not be wanting to his people. This being but one instance of the Divine compassion out of many, gives us occasion to think how much good our God does, every day, beyond what we are aware of. Every view we take of his infinite perfections, should remind us of his right to our love, the evil of sinning against him, and our need of his mercy and salvation.
