Job Replies: The LORD Has Done This
|
||||
|
||||
# Chapter 12
|
||||
1. Then Job answered and said:
|
||||
|
||||
2. "No doubt you are the people,
|
||||
and wisdom will die with you.
|
||||
|
||||
3. But I have understanding as well as you;
|
||||
I am not inferior to you.
|
||||
Who does not know such things as these?
|
||||
|
||||
4. I am a laughingstock to my friends;
|
||||
I, who called to God and he answered me,
|
||||
a just and blameless man, am a laughingstock.
|
||||
|
||||
5. In the thought of one who is at ease there is contempt for misfortune;
|
||||
it is ready for those whose feet slip.
|
||||
|
||||
6. The tents of robbers are at peace,
|
||||
and those who provoke God are secure,
|
||||
who bring their god in their hand.
|
||||
|
||||
7. "But ask the beasts, and they will teach you;
|
||||
the birds of the heavens, and they will tell you;
|
||||
|
||||
8. or the bushes of the earth, and they will teach you;
|
||||
and the fish of the sea will declare to you.
|
||||
|
||||
9. Who among all these does not know
|
||||
that the hand of the LORD has done this?
|
||||
|
||||
10. In his hand is the life of every living thing
|
||||
and the breath of all mankind.
|
||||
|
||||
11. Does not the ear test words
|
||||
as the palate tastes food?
|
||||
|
||||
12. Wisdom is with the aged,
|
||||
and understanding in length of days.
|
||||
|
||||
13. "With God are wisdom and might;
|
||||
he has counsel and understanding.
|
||||
|
||||
14. If he tears down, none can rebuild;
|
||||
if he shuts a man in, none can open.
|
||||
|
||||
15. If he withholds the waters, they dry up;
|
||||
if he sends them out, they overwhelm the land.
|
||||
|
||||
16. With him are strength and sound wisdom;
|
||||
the deceived and the deceiver are his.
|
||||
|
||||
17. He leads counselors away stripped,
|
||||
and judges he makes fools.
|
||||
|
||||
18. He looses the bonds of kings
|
||||
and binds a waistcloth on their hips.
|
||||
|
||||
19. He leads priests away stripped
|
||||
and overthrows the mighty.
|
||||
|
||||
20. He deprives of speech those who are trusted
|
||||
and takes away the discernment of the elders.
|
||||
|
||||
21. He pours contempt on princes
|
||||
and loosens the belt of the strong.
|
||||
|
||||
22. He uncovers the deeps out of darkness
|
||||
and brings deep darkness to light.
|
||||
|
||||
23. He makes nations great, and he destroys them;
|
||||
he enlarges nations, and leads them away.
|
||||
|
||||
24. He takes away understanding from the chiefs of the people of the earth
|
||||
and makes them wander in a trackless waste.
|
||||
|
||||
25. They grope in the dark without light,
|
||||
and he makes them stagger like a drunken man.
