¹ Knowest thou the time whe the wylde goates bring foorth their young among the stonye rockes? or layest thou wayte when the hindes vse to calue? ² Canst thou number the monethes that they go with young? or knowest thou the time when they bring foorth? ³ They lye downe, they calue their young ones, and they are deliuered of their trauaile and paine: ⁴ Yet their young ones grow vp, and waxe fatte through good feeding with corne: They go foorth, and returne not againe vnto them. ⁵ Who letteth the wylde asse to go free? or who looseth the bondes of the wylde mule? ⁶ Euen I which haue geuen the wyldernesse to be their house, and the vntilled land to be their dwelling. ⁷ They force not for the multitude of people in the citie, neither regarde the crying of the driuer: ⁸ But seeke their pasture about the mountaines, and folowe the greene grasse. ⁹ Wyll the vnicorne do thee seruice, or abide still by thy cribbe? ¹⁰ Canst thou binde the yoke about the vnicorne in the forowe, to make him plowe after thee in the valleyes?

Gill's Notes on the Bible

The range of the mountains [is] his pasture,.... It ranges about the mountains for food; it looks about for it, as the word signifies, and tries first one place and then another to get some, it having short commons there;

and he searcheth after every green thing; herb or plant, be it what it will that is green, it seeks after; and which being scarce in deserts and mountains, it searches about for and feeds upon it, wherever it can find it; grass being the peculiar food of these creatures, see Job 6:5; and which is observed by naturalists x.

x Oppiani Cyneget. l. 3.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The range of the mountains is his pasture - The word rendered “range” יתור yâthûr, means properly a “searching out,” and then that which is obtained by search. The word “range” expresses the idea with sufficient exactness. The usual range of the wild ass is the mountains. Pallas, who has given a full description of the habits of the Onager, or wild ass, states, that it, especially loves desolate hills as its abode. “Acts of the Society of Sciences of Petersburg,” for the year 1777.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Job 39:8. The range of the mountains — The mountains and desert places are his peculiar places of pasture; and he lives on any thing that is green, or any kind of vegetable production.
