Job 12:7-10

New Living Translation

⁷ “Just ask the animals, and they will teach you.
    Ask the birds of the sky, and they will tell you.
⁸ Speak to the earth, and it will instruct you.
    Let the fish in the sea speak to you.
⁹ For they all know
    that my disaster^[a] has come from the hand of the Lord.

    and the breath of every human being.
