[1]And JobH347 answeredH6030[H8799] H559and saidH8799
[2]No doubtH551 but ye are the peopleH5971, and wisdomH2451 shall dieH4191 with youH8799.
[3]ButH1571 I have understandingH3824 as well as you; I am not inferiorH5307[H8802] to you: yea, who knoweth not such things as theseH3644?
[4]I am as one mockedH7814 of his neighbourH7453, who callethH7121[H8802] upon GodH433, and he answerethH6030[H8799] him: the justH6662 uprightH8549 man is laughed to scornH7814.
[5]He that is readyH3559[H8737] to slipH4571[H8802] with his feetH7272 is as a lampH3940 despisedH937 in the thoughtH6248 of him that is at easeH7600.
[6]The tabernaclesH168 of robbersH7703[H8802] prosperH7951[H8799], and they that provokeH7264[H8688] GodH410 are secureH987; into whose handH3027 GodH433 bringethH935 abundantlyH8689.
[7]ButH199 askH7592[H8798] now the beastsH929, and they shall teachH3384[H8686] thee; and the fowlsH5775 of the airH8064, and they shall tellH5046 theeH8686:
[8]Or speakH7878[H8798] to the earthH776, and it shall teachH3384[H8686] thee: and the fishesH1709 of the seaH3220 shall declareH5608 unto theeH8762.
[9]Who knowethH3045[H8804] not in all these that the handH3027 of the LORDH3068 hath wroughtH6213 thisH8804?
[10]In whose handH3027 is the soulH5315 of every living thingH2416, and the breathH7307 of all mankindH376.[H1320]
[11]Doth not the earH241 tryH974[H8799] wordsH4405? and the mouthH2441 tasteH2938[H8799] his meatH400?
[12]With the ancientH3453 is wisdomH2451; and in lengthH753 of daysH3117 understandingH8394.
[13]With him is wisdomH2451 and strengthH1369, he hath counselH6098 and understandingH8394.
[14]Behold, he breaketh downH2040[H8799], and it cannot be built againH1129[H8735]: he shutteth upH5462[H8799] a manH376, and there can be no openingH6605.[H8735]
[15]Behold, he withholdethH6113[H8799] the watersH4325, and they dry upH3001[H8799]: also he sendeth them outH7971[H8762], and they overturnH2015[H8799] the earthH776.
[16]With him is strengthH5797 and wisdomH8454: the deceivedH7683[H8802] and the deceiverH7686 are hisH8688.
[17]He leadethH3212[H8688] counsellorsH3289[H8802] away spoiledH7758, and maketh the judgesH8199[H8802] foolsH1984.[H8779]
[18]He loosethH6605[H8765] the bondH4148 of kingsH4428, and girdethH631[H8799] their loinsH4975 with a girdleH232.
[19]He leadethH3212[H8688] princesH3548 away spoiledH7758, and overthrowethH5557[H8762] the mightyH386.
[20]He removeth awayH5493[H8688] the speechH8193 of the trustyH539[H8737], and taketh awayH3947[H8799] the understandingH2940 of the agedH2205.
[21]He pourethH8210[H8802] contemptH937 upon princesH5081, and weakenethH7503[H8765] the strengthH4206 of the mightyH650.
[22]He discoverethH1540[H8764] deep thingsH6013 out of darknessH2822, and bringeth outH3318[H8686] to lightH216 the shadow of deathH6757.
[23]He increasethH7679[H8688] the nationsH1471, and destroyethH6[H8762] them: he enlargethH7849[H8802] the nationsH1471, and straitenethH5148 them againH8686.
[24]He taketh awayH5493[H8688] the heartH3820 of the chiefH7218 of the peopleH5971 of the earthH776, and causeth them to wanderH8582[H8686] in a wildernessH8414 where there is no wayH1870.
[25]They gropeH4959[H8762] in the darkH2822 without lightH216, and he maketh them to staggerH8582[H8686] like a drunken manH7910.
