Job 12 💬 📚 📜 📕 ↷

7 For ask the beasts, and they shall teach thee: and the fowls of the air, and they shall tell thee.

8 Speak to the earth, and it shall answer thee, and the fishes of the sea shall tell.

9 Who is ignorant that the hand of our Lord hath made all these things?

10 In whose hand is the soul of every living thing, and the spirit of all the flesh of man.

11 Doth not the ear discern words, and the jaws of him that eateth, the taste?

12 In the ancients is wisdom, and in long time prudence.

13 With him is wisdom and strength, he hath counsel and understanding.

14 If he shall destroy, there is no man that can build: if he shut up a man, there is none that can open.

15 If he hold in the waters, all things shall be dried: and if he send them forth, they shall overthrow the earth.

16 With him is strength and wisdom: he knoweth both the deceiver, and him that is deceived.
