Job 12:10 - Forerunner Commentary

Job 12:10

8 Or speak to the earth, and it will teach you;
And the fish of the sea will explain to you.

9 Who among all these does not know
That the hand of the Lord has done this,

10 ^aIn whose hand is the¹ life of every living thing,
And the ^bbreath of all mankind?

11 Does not the ear test words
And the¹ mouth taste its food?

12 Wisdom is with aged men,
And with¹ length of days, understanding.
