Job 12:7 - Forerunner Commentary

Job 12:7

5 A¹ lamp is despised in the thought of one who is at ease;
It is made ready for ^athose whose feet slip.

6 ^aThe tents of robbers prosper,
And those who provoke God are secure—
In what God provides by His hand.

7 “But now ask the beasts, and they will teach you;
And the birds of the air, and they will tell you;

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.
