Contextual Overview
7 "Why do the wicked still live, Continue on, also become very powerful? 8 "Their descendants are established with them in their sight, And their offspring before their eyes, 9 Their houses are safe from fear, And the rod of God is not on them. 10 "His ox mates without fail; His cow calves and does not abort.11 "They send forth their little ones like the flock, And their children skip about. 12 "They sing to the timbrel and harp And rejoice at the sound of the flute. 13 "They spend their days in prosperity, And suddenly they go down to Sheol. 14 "They say to God, 'Depart from us! We do not even desire the knowledge of Your ways. 15 'Who is the Almighty, that we should serve Him, And what would we gain if we entreat Him?' 16 "Behold, their prosperity is not in their hand; The counsel of the wicked is far from me.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Their bull gendereth, and faileth not,.... As the wicked man's prosperity is described before by the increase and comfortable settlement of his children and grandchildren, and by the peace and safety of all within doors; here it is further set forth by the increase of his cattle in the fields, one part being put for the whole, his oxen and asses, his camels and sheep, things in which the riches of men chiefly lay in those times and countries; and he was reckoned an happy man when these brought forth abundantly; see Psalms 144:13;
their cow calveth, and casteth not her calf; both male and female succeed in propagating their species, and so in increasing the wealth of their owner; this is sometimes promised as a temporal blessing,
Exodus 23:26.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Their bull gendereth - See Rosenmuller and Lee on this verse; comp Bochart, Hieroz. P. 1, Lib. ii. c. xxx. The general idea is, that the wicked were prospered as well as the pious. God did not interpose by a miracle to cut off their cattle, and to prevent their becoming rich.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Job 21:10. Their bull gendereth — עבר ibbar, passes over, i.e., on the cow, referring to the actions of the bull when coupling with the female. Their flocks multiply greatly, they bring forth in time, and none of them is barren.
