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
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.
