Job 12:7-12
New American Standard Bible
Job 12:7-12
New American Standard Bible
7 “But just ask the animals, and have them teach you;
And the birds of the sky, and have them tell you.
8 Or speak to the earth, and have it teach you;
And have the fish of the sea tell you.
9 Who among all these does not know
That (A)the hand of the Lord has done this,
10 (B)In whose hand is the life of every living thing,
And (C)the breath of all mankind?
11 Does (D)the ear not put words to the test,
As the palate [a]tastes its food?
12 Wisdom is with the (E)aged,
And with [b]long life comes understanding.
