Contextual Overview
1 "Do you know when the mountain goats give birth? Do you watch when the deer gives birth to her fawn? 2 Do you count the months until they give birth and know the right time for them to give birth? 3 They lie down, their young are born, and then the pain of giving birth is over. 4 Their young ones grow big and strong in the wild country. Then they leave their homes and do not return. 5 "Who let the wild donkey go free? Who untied its ropes? 6 I am the one who gave the donkey the desert as its home; I gave it the desert lands as a place to live. 7 The wild donkey laughs at the confusion in the city, and it does not hear the drivers shout. 8 It roams the hills looking for pasture, looking for anything green to eat. 9 "Will the wild ox agree to serve you and stay by your feeding box at night? 10 Can you hold it to the plowed row with a harness so it will plow the valleys for you?

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Canst thou number the months [that] they fulfil?.... Which some understand both of wild goats and hinds. Common goats fulfil five months, they conceive in November, and bring forth in March, as Pliny f observes; but how many the wild goats of the rock fulfil is not said by him or any other I know of: the same writer says g of hinds, that they go eight months;
or knowest thou the time when they bring forth? naturalists h tell us, that the hinds conceive after the rise of the star Arcturus, which rises eleven days before the autumnal equinox; so that they conceive in September; and as they go eight months, they bring forth in April; but then the exact time to a day and hour is not known. Besides, who has fixed the time for their bringing forth, and carries them in it through so many dangers and difficulties? None but the Lord himself. Now if such common things in nature were not known perfectly by Job, how should he be able to search into and find out the causes and reasons of God's providential dealings with men, or what is in the womb of Providence?

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Canst thou number the months ... - That is, as they wander in the wilderness, as they live in inaccessible crags and cliffs of the rocks, it is impossible for man to be acquainted with their habits as he can with those of the domestic animals.
