New Testament

Job 12:7-16 Common English Bible (CEB)

7. But ask Behemoth, and he will teach you,the birds in the sky, and they will tell you;

8. or talk to earth, and it will teach you;the fish of the sea will recount it for you.

9. Among all these, who hasn’t knownthat the Lord’s hand did this?

10. In whose grasp is the life of every thing,the breath of every person?

11. Doesn’t the ear test wordsand the palate taste food?

12. "In old age is wisdom;understanding in a long life."

13. With him are wisdom and power;counsel and understanding are his.

14. If he tears down, it can’t be rebuilt;if he ties a person up, he can’t be set free.

15. If he restricts water, they have drought;if he lets it loose, it overturns the land.

16. With him are might and success;the deceiver and the deceived are his.
