And Job answered and said, |
|
But I have understanding as well as you; I am not inferior to you: yea, who knoweth not such things as these? |
|
I am as one mocked of his neighbour, who calleth upon God, and he answereth him: the just upright man is laughed to scorn. |
|
He that is ready to slip with his feet is as a lamp despised in the thought of him that is at ease. |
|
The tabernacles of robbers prosper, and they that provoke God are secure; into whose hand God bringeth abundantly. |
|
But ask now the beasts, and they shall teach thee; and the fowls of the air, and they shall tell thee: |
|
Or speak to the earth, and it shall teach thee: and the fishes of the sea shall declare unto thee. |
|
Behold, he breaketh down, and it cannot be built again: he shutteth up a man, and there can be no opening. |
|
Behold, he withholdeth the waters, and they dry up: also he sendeth them out, and they overturn the earth. |
|
He discovereth deep things out of darkness, and bringeth out to light the shadow of death. |
|
He increaseth the nations, and destroyeth them: he enlargeth the nations, and straiteneth them again. |
|
He taketh away the heart of the chief of the people of the earth, and causeth them to wander in a wilderness where there is no way. |
