Job 12:7-12
Legacy Standard Bible
7 “But now ask the beasts, and let them instruct you;
And the birds of the sky, and let them tell you.
8 Or muse to the earth, and let it instruct you;
And let the fish of the sea recount it to you.
9 Who among all these does not know
That (A)the hand of Yahweh has done this,
10 (B)In whose hand is the life of every living thing,
And (C)the breath of all the flesh of man?
11 Does not (D)the ear test words,
As the palate [a]tastes its food?
12 Wisdom is with (E)aged men,
With [b]long life is discernment.
Job 12:7-12
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.
10 For the life of every living thing is in his hand,
and the breath of every human being.
11 The ear tests the words it hears
just as the mouth distinguishes between foods.
12 Wisdom belongs to the aged,
and understanding to the old.
