Job 12 WBS — Job 12

1 And Job answered and said, WBS — Job 12:1

2 No doubt but ye are the people, and wisdom shall die with you. WBS — Job 12:2

3 But I have understanding as well as you; I am not inferior to you: yes, who knoweth not such things as these? WBS — Job 12:3

4 I am as one mocked by his neighbor, who calleth upon God, and he answereth him: the just upright man is derided. WBS — Job 12:4

5 He that is ready to slip with his feet is as a lamp despised in the thought of him that is at ease. WBS — Job 12:5

6 The tabernacles of robbers prosper, and they that provoke God are secure; into whose hand God bringeth abundantly. WBS — Job 12:6

7 But ask now the beasts, and they shall teach thee; and the fowls of the air, and they shall tell thee: WBS — Job 12:7

8 Or speak to the earth, and it shall teach thee: and the fishes of the sea shall declare to thee. WBS — Job 12:8

9 Who knoweth not in all these that the hand of the LORD hath wrought this? WBS — Job 12:9

10 In whose hand is the soul of every living thing, and the breath of all mankind. WBS — Job 12:10

11 Doth not the ear try words? and the mouth taste its food? WBS — Job 12:11

12 With the ancient is wisdom; and in length of days understanding. WBS — Job 12:12

13 With him is wisdom and strength, he hath counsel and understanding. WBS — Job 12:13

14 Behold, he breaketh down, and it cannot be built again: he shutteth up a man, and there can be no opening. WBS — Job 12:14

15 Behold, he withholdeth the waters, and they dry up: also he sendeth them out, and they overturn the earth. WBS — Job 12:15

16 With him is strength and wisdom: the deceived and the deceiver are his. WBS — Job 12:16

17 He leadeth counselors away spoiled, and maketh the judges fools. WBS — Job 12:17

18 He looseth the bond of kings, and girdeth their loins with a girdle. WBS — Job 12:18

19 He leadeth princes away spoiled, and overthroweth the mighty. WBS — Job 12:19

20 He removeth away the speech of the trusty, and taketh away the understanding of the aged. WBS — Job 12:20

21 He poureth contempt upon princes, and weakeneth the strength of the mighty. WBS — Job 12:21

22 He revealeth deep things out of darkness, and bringeth to light the shades of death. WBS — Job 12:22

23 He increaseth nations, and destroyeth them: he enlargeth nations, and straiteneth them again. WBS — Job 12:23

24 He taketh away the heart of the chief of the people of the earth, and causeth them to wander in a wilderness where there is no way. WBS — Job 12:24
