Kol Dodi Dofek
[Did you know] [w]ho it is who darkens counsel by speaking words without knowledge? Gird up now your loins like a man, for I will demand of you and you shall declare unto Me.

Or can you mark when the hinds do calve? Can you number the months that they fulfill? Or do you know the time when they bring forth?"
