mkjv@Job:12:1 @ And Job answered and said,

mkjv@Job:12:2 @ For truly you [are] the people, and wisdom will die with you.

mkjv@Job:12:3 @ But I have understanding as well as you; I do not fall [short] of you; yes, who does not know such things as these?

mkjv@Job:12:4 @ I [am] a laughing-stock to his friends; who calls on God, and He answers him; the just, the upright one [is] a mockery;

mkjv@Job:12:5 @ a flaming brand despised in the thoughts of him who feels secure; [it is] ready for those with slipping feet.

mkjv@Job:12:6 @ The tents of robbers are at peace, and those who provoke God [are] secure, in whatever God brings to their hand.

mkjv@Job:12:7 @ But now ask the animals, and they shall teach you; and the birds of the air, and they shall tell you;

mkjv@Job:12:8 @ or speak to the earth, and it shall teach you; and the fish of the sea shall declare [it] to you;

mkjv@Job:12:9 @ who of all these does not know that the hand of the LORD has done this?

mkjv@Job:12:10 @ In whose hand [is] the soul of every living thing, and the breath of all flesh, [even] of man?

mkjv@Job:12:11 @ Does not the ear try words? And does not the mouth taste its food?

mkjv@Job:12:12 @ With the aged [is] wisdom, and understanding in length of days.

mkjv@Job:12:13 @ With Him [is] wisdom and strength; He has wisdom and understanding.

mkjv@Job:12:14 @ Behold, He breaks down, and it can not be built up again; He shuts up a man, and no one opens.

mkjv@Job:12:15 @ Behold, He withholds the waters, and they dry up; also He sends them out, and they overturn the earth.

mkjv@Job:12:16 @ With Him [is] strength and sound wisdom; the deceived and the deceiver [are] His.

mkjv@Job:12:17 @ He leads wise men away stripped, and makes the judges fools.

mkjv@Job:12:18 @ He cuts away the bonds of kings, and binds their loins with a girdle.

mkjv@Job:12:19 @ He leads priests away stripped, and overthrows the mighty.

mkjv@Job:12:20 @ [He] removes the speech of the men of trust, and takes away the understanding of the aged.

mkjv@Job:12:21 @ He pours scorn on princes, and unties the belt of the mighty.

mkjv@Job:12:22 @ He discovers deep things out of darkness, and brings the shadow of death to light.

mkjv@Job:12:23 @ He gives greatness to the nations, and destroys them. He spreads out the nations, and leads them away.

mkjv@Job:12:24 @ He takes away the heart of the chief of the people of the land, and causes them to wander in a wilderness [where there is] no path.

mkjv@Job:12:25 @ They grope in the dark without light, and He makes them to stagger like [a] drunkard.
