12:1 And
Iob
answered,
and
sayd,
12:2 No
doubt
but
ye
are
the
people,
and
wisedome
shall
die
with
you.
12:3 But
I
haue
vnderstanding
as
well
as
you,
I
am
not
inferiour
to
you:
yea,
who
knoweth
not
such
things
as
these
12:4 I
am
as
one
mocked
of
his
neighbour,
who
calleth
vpon
God,
and
he
answereth
him:
the
iust
vpright
man
is
laughed
to
scorne.
12:5 He
that
is
ready
to
slippe
with
his
feet,
is
as
a
lamp
despised
in
the
thought
of
him
that
is
at
ease.
12:6 The
tabernacles
of
robbers
prosper,
and
they
that
prouoke
God
are
secure,
into
whose
hand
God
bringeth
abundantly.
12:7 But
aske
now
the
beasts,
and
they
shall
teach
thee;
and
the
foules
of
the
aire,
and
they
shall
tell
thee.
12:8 Or
speake
to
the
earth,
and
it
shall
teach
thee;
and
the
fishes
of
the
sea
shall
declare
vnto
thee.
12:9 Who
knoweth
not
in
all
these,
that
the
hand
of
the
Lord
hath
wrought
this
12:10 In
whose
hand
is
the
soule
of
euery
liuing
thing,
and
the
breath
of
all
mankinde.
12:11 Doeth
not
the
eare
trie
wordes
And
the
mouth
taste
his
meate
12:12 With
the
ancient
is
wisedome,
and
in
length
of
dayes,
vnderstanding.
12:13 With
him
is
wisedome
&
strength,
he
hath
counsell
and
vnderstanding.
12:14 Behold,
he
breaketh
downe,
and
it
cannot
be
built
againe:
hee
shutteth
vp
a
man,
and
there
can
be
no
opening.
12:15 Behold,
hee
withholdeth
the
waters,
and
they
drie
vp:
also
hee
sendeth
them
out,
and
they
ouerturne
the
earth.
12:16 With
him
is
strength
&
wisedome:
the
deceiued,
and
the
deceiuer,
are
his.
12:17 He
leadeth
counsellers
away
spoiled,
and
maketh
the
Iudges
fooles.
12:18 He
looseth
the
bond
of
kings,
and
girdeth
their
loines
with
a
girdle.
12:19 He
leadeth
Princes
away
spoiled,
and
ouerthroweth
the
mightie.
12:20 He
remooueth
away
the
speech
of
the
trustie,
and
taketh
away
the
vnderstanding
of
the
aged.
12:21 He
powreth
contempt
vpon
princes,
and
weakeneth
the
strength
of
the
mightie.
12:22 Hee
discouereth
deepe
things
out
of
darkenesse,
and
bringeth
out
to
light
the
shadow
of
death.
12:23 He
increaseth
the
nations,
and
destroyeth
them:
hee
inlargeth
the
nations,
and
straiteneth
them
againe.
12:24 He
taketh
away
the
heart
of
the
chiefe
of
the
people
of
the
earth,
and
causeth
them
to
wander
in
a
wildernes
where
there
is
no
way.
12:25 They
grope
in
the
darke
without
light,
and
hee
maketh
them
to
stagger
like
a
drunken
man.
