KJB-1611 JOB Chapter 12
◄ JOB 12 ► ║ ═ ©
0 1 Iob mainteineth himselfe against his friends that reproue him. 7 He acknowledgeth the generall doctrine of Gods omnipotencie. XII ¶ And Iob answered, and sayd, 2 No doubt but ye are the people, and wisedome shall die with you. 3 [fn][fn][fn]But I haue vnderstanding as well as you, I am not inferiour to you: yea, who knoweth not such things as these? 4 I am as one mocked of his neighbour, who calleth vpon God, and he answereth him: the iust vpright man is laughed to scorne. 5 He that is ready to slippe with his feet, is as a lamp despised in the thought of him that is at ease. 6 The tabernacles of robbers prosper, and they that prouoke God are secure, into whose hand God bringeth abundantly. 7 But aske now the beasts, and they shall teach thee; and the foules of the aire, and they shall tell thee. 8 Or speake to the earth, and it shall teach thee; and the fishes of the sea shall declare vnto thee. 9 Who knoweth not in all these, that the hand of the LORD hath wrought this? 10 [fn][fn]In whose hand is the soule of euery liuing thing, and the breath of all mankinde. 11 [fn][fn]Doeth not the eare trie wordes? and the mouth taste his meate? 12 With the ancient is wisedome, and in length of dayes, vnderstanding. 13 [fn]With him is wisedome & strength, he hath counsell and vnderstanding. 14 [fn][fn][fn]Behold, he breaketh downe, and it cannot be built againe: hee shutteth vp a man, and there can be no opening. 15 Behold, hee withholdeth the waters, and they drie vp: also hee sendeth them out, and they ouerturne the earth. 16 With him is strength & wisedome: the deceiued, and the deceiuer, are his. 17 He leadeth counsellers away spoiled, and maketh the Iudges fooles. 18 He looseth the bond of kings, and girdeth their loines with a girdle. 19 He leadeth Princes away spoiled, and ouerthroweth the mightie. 20 [fn][fn]He remooueth away the speech of the trustie, and taketh away the vnderstanding of the aged. 21 [fn]He powreth contempt vpon princes, and weakeneth the strength of the mightie. 22 Hee discouereth deepe things out of darkenesse, and bringeth out to light the shadow of death. 23 [fn]He increaseth the nations, and destroyeth them: hee inlargeth the nations, and straiteneth them againe. 24 He taketh away the heart of the chiefe of the people of the earth, and causeth them to wander in a wildernes where there is no way. 25 [fn]They grope in the darke without light, and hee maketh them to stagger like a drunken man.
