“Who sent the (A)wild donkey out free?
And who opened the bonds of the swift donkey,
To whom I gave (B)the wilderness as his home,
And the salt land as his dwelling place?
He laughs at the turmoil of the city,
He does not hear the shouting of the taskmaster.
He explores the mountains of his pasture,
And searches after every green thing.

“Who let the wild donkey(A) go free?
    Who untied its ropes?
I gave it the wasteland(B) as its home,
    the salt flats(C) as its habitat.(D)
It laughs(E) at the commotion in the town;
    it does not hear a driver’s shout.(F)
It ranges the hills(G) for its pasture
    and searches for any green thing.
