AND Job answered and said,</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013597">2</a>. No doubt but ye are the people, and wisdom shall die with you.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013598">3</a>. But I have understanding as well as you; I am not inferior to you: yea, who knoweth not such things as these?</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013599">4</a>. I am as one mocked of his neighbour, who calleth upon God, and he answereth him: the just upright man is laughed to scorn.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013600">5</a>. He that is ready to slip with his feet is as a lamp despised in the thought of him that is at ease.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013601">6</a>. The tabernacles of robbers prosper, and they that provoke God are secure; into whose hand God bringeth abundantly.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013602">7</a>. But ask now the beasts, and they shall teach thee; and the fowls of the air, and they shall tell thee:</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013603">8</a>. Or speak to the earth, and it shall teach thee: and the fishes of the sea shall declare unto thee.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013604">9</a>. Who knoweth not in all these that the hand of the LORD hath wrought this?</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013605">10</a>. In whose hand is the soul of every living thing, and the breath of all mankind.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013606">11</a>. Doth not the ear try words?  and the mouth taste his meat?</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013607">12</a>. With the ancient is wisdom; and in length of days understanding.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013608">13</a>. With him is wisdom and strength, he hath counsel and understanding.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013609">14</a>. Behold, he breaketh down, and it cannot be built again: he shutteth up a man, and there can be no opening.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013610">15</a>. Behold, he withholdeth the waters, and they dry up: also he sendeth them out, and they overturn the earth.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013611">16</a>. With him is strength and wisdom: the deceived and the deceiver are his.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013612">17</a>. He leadeth counsellors away spoiled, and maketh the judges fools.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013613">18</a>. He looseth the bond of kings, and girdeth their loins with a girdle.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013614">19</a>. He leadeth princes away spoiled, and overthroweth the mighty.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013615">20</a>. He removeth away the speech of the trusty, and taketh away the understanding of the aged.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013616">21</a>. He poureth contempt upon princes, and weakeneth the strength of the mighty.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013617">22</a>. He discovereth deep things out of darkness, and bringeth out to light the shadow of death.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013618">23</a>. He increaseth the nations, and destroyeth them: he enlargeth the nations, and straiteneth them again.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013619">24</a>. He taketh away the heart of the chief of the people of the earth, and causeth them to wander in a wilderness where there is no way.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013620">25</a>. They grope in the dark without light, and he maketh them to stagger like a drunken man.</li>
