Because God has made her forget wisdom,First off, before anyone gets sexist, I want to clarify that the "her" in this passage is a female ostrich. So we're not denigrating humans here, this is about the wisdom (or folly) that God has given animals.
And has not given her a share of understanding.
Now, this is interesting in that it says God has specifically deprived ostriches of wisdom on how to care for their young. They lay their eggs, bury them down a bit maybe, and then leave. They don't protect their eggs, to prevent accidents or predators from getting to them. If they live they live, and if they die they die. God has made them foolish, perhaps specifically to give Job this example.
