Job 39:4
Their young ones thrive and grow up in the open field; they leave and do not return.
BSB
ASV
Their young ones become strong, they grow up in the open field; They go forth, and return not again.
KJV
Their young ones are in good liking, they grow up with corn; they go forth, and return not unto them.
Their young ones are in good liking,.... Plump, fat, and sleek, as fawns are: they grow up with corn; by which they grow, or without in the field, as the word also signifies; and their growth and increase is very quick, as Aristotle observes (l); they go forth, and return not unto them: they go forth into the fields, and shift and provide for themselves, and trouble their dams no more; and return not to them, nor are they known by them. (l) Ib. (Aristot. Hist. Animal.) l. 6. c. 29.
In good liking - After the fawns have sucked for some time, the dam leads them to the pastures, where they feed on different kinds of herbage; but not on corn, for they are not born before harvest-time in Arabia and Palestine, and the stag does not feed on corn, but on grass, moss, and the shoots of the fir, beech, and other trees: therefore the word בר bar, here translated corn, should be translated the open field or country. See Parkhurst. Their nurslings bound away - Mr. Good.
Rare words are the text's own signal of a deliberate thread: the fewer the occurrences, the more the places it appears belong together.
