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.

Job 12:7-12
English Standard Version
7 “But ask the beasts, and they will teach you;
the birds of the heavens, and they will tell you;
8 or the bushes of the earth, and they will teach you;[a]
and the fish of the sea will declare to you.
9 Who among all these does not know
that (A)the hand of the Lord has done this?
10 In (B)his hand is the life of every living thing
and the breath of all mankind.
11 Does not (C)the ear test words
as the palate tastes food?
12 Wisdom is with (D)the aged,
and understanding in length of days.
