donkey strong

Consider again how you translated donkey in the book of Genesis. See Gen 12:16; 16:12; 22:3, 5, 6; 24:35; 30:43; 32:5, 15; 34:28; 36:24; 42:26-27; 43:18, 24; 44:3, 13; 45:23; 47:17; 49:14. Alternate translation: “will be like a strong donkey”

רֹבֵ֖ץ

crouching

Alternate translation: “lying down resting”

בֵּ֥ין הַֽ⁠מִּשְׁפְּתָֽיִם

between the,sheepfolds

The Hebrew text is ambiguous here. It could mean: (1) “between two saddlebags/loads.” or (2) “between the two parts of a sheep pen.” Both interpretations imply that the donkey is lying down to rest after it worked hard.
