Job 8:8-10
New Living Translation
8 “Just ask the previous generation.
Pay attention to the experience of our ancestors.
9 For we were born but yesterday and know nothing.
Our days on earth are as fleeting as a shadow.
10 But those who came before us will teach you.
They will teach you the wisdom of old.
Job 8:8-10
New American Standard Bible
8 “Please (A)inquire of past generations,
And consider the things searched out by their fathers.
9 For we are only of yesterday and know nothing,
Because (B)our days on earth are as a shadow.
10 Will they not teach you and tell you,
And bring forth words from their minds?
