American Standard Version
Job 12:7-16
7But ask now the beasts, and they shall teach thee;And the birds of the heavens, and they shall tell thee:8Or speak to the earth, and it shall teach thee;And the fishes of the sea shall declare unto thee.9Who knoweth not in all these,That the hand of Jehovah hath wrought this,10In whose hand is the soul of every living thing,And the breath of all mankind?11Doth not the ear try words,Even as the palate tasteth its food?12With aged men is wisdom,And in length of days understanding.13WithGodis wisdom and might;He hath counsel and understanding.14Behold, he breaketh down, and it cannot be built again;He shutteth up a man, and there can be no opening.15Behold, he withholdeth the waters, and they dry up;Again, he sendeth them out, and they overturn the earth.16With him is strength and wisdom;The deceived and the deceiver are his.
