Job 12:16-22

16Yes, strength and wisdom are his; deceivers and deceived are both in his power.

17He leads counselors away, stripped of good judgment; wise judges become fools.

18He removes the royal robe of kings. They are led away with ropes around their waist.

19He leads priests away, stripped of status; he overthrows those with long years in power.

20He silences the trusted adviser and removes the insight of the elders.

21He pours disgrace upon princes and disarms the strong.

22“He uncovers mysteries hidden in darkness; he brings light to the deepest gloom.
