Verse 5 is found in chapter 39 of Job. The divine questions focus on wild animals and creatures living beyond human control. Mountain goats, deer, wild donkeys, and wild oxen are mentioned. Creation includes forms of life whose behavior is not organized around human needs. This challenges any assumption that the universe can be understood solely from the human perspective.

Wer hat den Wildesel so frei lassen gehen, wer hat die Bande des Flüchtigen gelöst,
¿Quién echó libre al asno montés, y quién soltó sus ataduras?
¿Quién dejó libre al asno salvaje? ¿Quién soltó las ataduras del asno de la estepa,
Qui met en liberté l'âne sauvage, Et l'affranchit de tout lien?
Chi ne ha mandato libero l’asino salvatico, E chi ha sciolti i suoi legami?
Quem despediu livre o jumento montês, e quem soltou as prisões ao jumento bravo,
「誰放野驢自由? 誰解開快驢的繩索?
