And JobH347 answeredH6030 and saidH559,
No doubtH551 but ye are the peopleH5971, and wisdomH2451 shall dieH4191 with you.
ButH1571 I have understandingH3824 as well as you; I am not inferiorH5307 to you: yea, who knoweth not such thingsH3644 as these? {understanding: Heb. an heart} {I am…: Heb. I fall not lower than you} {who…: Heb. with whom are not such as these?}
I am as one mockedH7814 of his neighbourH7453, who callethH7121 upon GodH433, and he answerethH6030 him: the justH6662 uprightH8549 man is laughed to scornH7814.
He that is readyH3559 to slipH4571 with his feetH7272 is as a lampH3940 despisedH937 in the thoughtH6248 of him that is at easeH7600.
The tabernaclesH168 of robbersH7703 prosperH7951, and they that provokeH7264 GodH410 are secureH987; into whose handH3027 GodH433 bringethH935 abundantly.
ButH199 askH7592 now the beastsH929, and they shall teachH3384 thee; and the fowlsH5775 of the airH8064, and they shall tellH5046 thee:
Or speakH7878 to the earthH776, and it shall teachH3384 thee: and the fishesH1709 of the seaH3220 shall declareH5608 unto thee.
Who knowethH3045 not in all these that the handH3027 of the LORDH3068 hath wroughtH6213 this?
In whose handH3027 is the soulH5315 of every living thingH2416, and the breathH7307 of all mankindH376+H1320. {soul: or, life} {all…: Heb. all flesh of man}
Doth not the earH241 tryH974 wordsH4405? and the mouthH2441 tasteH2938 his meatH400? {mouth: Heb. palate}
With the ancientH3453 is wisdomH2451; and in lengthH753 of daysH3117 understandingH8394.
With him is wisdomH2451 and strengthH1369, he hath counselH6098 and understandingH8394. {With…: that is, With God}
Behold, he breaketh downH2040, and it cannot be built againH1129: he shutteth upH5462 a manH376, and there can be no openingH6605. {up: Heb. upon}
Behold, he withholdethH6113 the watersH4325, and they dry upH3001: also he sendeth them outH7971, and they overturnH2015 the earthH776.
With him is strengthH5797 and wisdomH8454: the deceivedH7683 and the deceiverH7686 are his.
He leadethH3212 counsellorsH3289 away spoiledH7758, and maketh the judgesH8199 foolsH1984.
He loosethH6605 the bondH4148 of kingsH4428, and girdethH631 their loinsH4975 with a girdleH232.
He leadethH3212 princesH3548 away spoiledH7758, and overthrowethH5557 the mightyH386.
He removeth awayH5493 the speechH8193 of the trustyH539, and taketh awayH3947 the understandingH2940 of the agedH2205. {speech…: Heb. lip of the faithful}
He pourethH8210 contemptH937 upon princesH5081, and weakenethH7503 the strengthH4206 of the mightyH650. {weakeneth…: or, looseth the girdle of the strong}
He discoverethH1540 deep thingsH6013 out of darknessH2822, and bringeth outH3318 to lightH216 the shadow of deathH6757.
He increasethH7679 the nationsH1471, and destroyethH6 them: he enlargethH7849 the nationsH1471, and straitenethH5148 them again. {straiteneth: Heb. leadeth in}
He taketh awayH5493 the heartH3820 of the chiefH7218 of the peopleH5971 of the earthH776, and causeth them to wanderH8582 in a wildernessH8414 where there is no wayH1870.
They gropeH4959 in the darkH2822 without lightH216, and he maketh them to staggerH8582 like a drunkenH7910 man. {stagger: Heb. wander}

And they fellH5307 upon their facesH6440, and saidH559, O GodH410, the GodH430 of the spiritsH7307 of all fleshH1320, shall oneH259 manH376 sinH2398, and wilt thou be wrothH7107 with all the congregationH5712?

But hast lifted upH7313 thyself againstH5922 the LordH4756 of heavenH8065; and they have broughtH858 the vesselsH3984 of his houseH1005 beforeH6925 thee, and thouH607, and thy lordsH7261, thy wivesH7695, and thy concubinesH3904, have drunkH8355 wineH2562 in them; and thou hast praisedH7624 the godsH426 of silverH3702, and goldH1722, of brassH5174, ironH6523, woodH636, and stoneH69, which seeH2370 notH3809, norH3809 hearH8086, norH3809 knowH3046: and the GodH426 in whose handH3028 thy breathH5396 is, and whose are allH3606 thy waysH735, hast thou notH3809 glorifiedH1922:
If he setH7760 his heartH3820 upon man, if he gatherH622 unto himself his spiritH7307 and his breathH5397; {man: Heb. him}
NeitherG3761 is worshippedG2323 withG5259 men'sG444 handsG5495, as though he neededG4326 any thingG5100, seeing heG846 givethG1325 to allG3956 lifeG2222, andG2532 breathG4157, andG2596 all thingsG3956;
ForG1063 inG1722 himG846 we liveG2198, andG2532 moveG2795, andG2532 have our beingG2070; asG5613 certainG5100 alsoG2532 of yourG5209 ownG2596 poetsG4163 have saidG2046, ForG1063 we areG2070 alsoG2532 hisG5120 offspringG1085.

And, beholdH2009, IH589, even I, do bringH935 a floodH3999 of watersH4325 upon the earthH776, to destroyH7843 all fleshH1320, wherein is the breathH7307 of lifeH2416, from underH8478 heavenH8064; and every thingH3605 that is in the earthH776 shall dieH1478.
Thou hidestH5641 thy faceH6440, they are troubledH926: thou takest awayH622 their breathH7307, they dieH1478, and returnH7725 to their dustH6083.
