English Standard Version
Job 12:17-25
17He leads counselors away stripped, and judges he makes fools.
18He looses the bonds of kings and binds a waistcloth on their hips.
19He leads priests away stripped and overthrows the mighty.
20He deprives of speech those who are trusted and takes away the discernment of the elders.
21He pours contempt on princes and loosens the belt of the strong.
22He uncovers the deeps out of darkness and brings deep darkness to light.
23He makes nations great, and he destroys them; he enlarges nations, and leads them away.
24He takes away understanding from the chiefs of the people of the earth and makes them wander in a trackless waste.
25They grope in the dark without light, and he makes them stagger like a drunken man.
