Job 8:8-10
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
8 “For inquire now of bygone generations
and consider what their ancestors have found,(A)
9 for we are but of yesterday, and we know nothing,
for our days on earth are but a shadow.(B)
10 Will they not teach you and tell you
and utter words out of their understanding?
Job 8:8-10
International Standard Version
8 “Inquire of the previous generation, won’t you please?
Consider what their forefathers searched out.
9 Because we are of yesterday and we know nothing,
for our time on earth is only a shadow.
10 Won’t they instruct you, and tell you,
and bring out words from the heart?
