Job 12
dby@Job:12:1 @ And Job answered and said,
dby@Job:12:2 @ Truly ye are the people, and wisdom shall die with you!
dby@Job:12:3 @ I also have understanding as well as you; I am not inferior to you; and who knoweth not such things as these?
dby@Job:12:4 @ I am to be one that is a derision to his friend, I who call upon +God, and whom he will answer: a derision is the just upright [man].
dby@Job:12:5 @ He that is ready to stumble with the foot is a lamp despised in the thought of him that is at ease.
dby@Job:12:6 @ The tents of desolators are in peace, and they that provoke �God are secure; into whose hand +God bringeth.
dby@Job:12:7 @ But ask now the beasts, and they shall teach thee; and the fowl of the heavens, and they shall tell thee;
dby@Job:12:8 @ Or speak to the earth, and it shall teach thee; and the fishes of the sea shall declare unto thee.
dby@Job:12:9 @ Who knoweth not in all these, that the hand of Jehovah hath wrought this?
dby@Job:12:10 @ In whose hand is the soul of every living thing, and the spirit of all flesh of man.
dby@Job:12:11 @ Doth not the ear try words, as the palate tasteth food?
dby@Job:12:12 @ With the aged is wisdom, and in length of days understanding.
dby@Job:12:13 @ With him is wisdom and might; he hath counsel and understanding.
dby@Job:12:14 @ Behold, he breaketh down, and it is not built again; he shutteth up a man, and there is no opening.
dby@Job:12:15 @ Behold, he withholdeth the waters, and they dry up; and he sendeth them out, and they overturn the earth.
dby@Job:12:16 @ With him is strength and effectual knowledge; the deceived and the deceiver are his.
dby@Job:12:17 @ He leadeth counsellors away spoiled, and judges maketh he fools;
dby@Job:12:18 @ He weakeneth the government of kings, and bindeth their loins with a fetter;
dby@Job:12:19 @ He leadeth priests away spoiled, and overthroweth the mighty;
dby@Job:12:20 @ He depriveth of speech the trusty, and taketh away the judgment of the elders;
dby@Job:12:21 @ He poureth contempt upon nobles, and slackeneth the girdle of the mighty;
dby@Job:12:22 @ He discovereth deep things out of darkness, and bringeth out into light the shadow of death;
dby@Job:12:23 @ He increaseth the nations, and destroyeth them; he spreadeth out the nations, and bringeth them in;
dby@Job:12:24 @ He taketh away the understanding of the chiefs of the people of the earth, and causeth them to wander in a pathless waste.
dby@Job:12:25 @ They grope in the dark without light, and he maketh them to stagger like a drunkard.
