Job 12:18 - Forerunner Commentary

Job 12:18

16 With Him are strength and prudence.
The deceived and the deceiver are His.

17 He leads counselors away plundered,
And makes fools of the judges.

18 He loosens the bonds of kings,
And binds their waist with a belt.

19 He leads¹ princes away plundered,
And overthrows the mighty.

20 ^aHe deprives the trusted ones of speech,
And takes away the discernment of the elders.

21 ^aHe pours contempt on princes,
And¹ disarms the mighty.

22 He ^auncovers deep things out of darkness,
And brings the shadow of death to light.

23 ^aHe¹ makes nations great, and destroys them;
He enlarges nations, and guides them.
