Job 5:1-9

1 "Call now, is there anyone who will answer you? And to which of the holy ones will you turn?

2 "For anger slays the foolish man, And jealousy kills the simple.

3 "I have seen the foolish taking root, And I cursed his abode immediately.

4 "His sons are far from safety, They are even oppressed in the gate, And there is no deliverer.

5 "His harvest the hungry devour And take it to a place of thorns, And the schemer is eager for their wealth.

6 "For affliction does not come from the dust, Nor does trouble sprout from the ground,

7 For man is born for trouble, As sparks fly upward.

8 "But as for me, I would seek God, And I would place my cause before God;

9 Who does great and unsearchable things, Wonders without number.

Psalms 145:1-3

1 I will extol You, my God, O King, And I will bless Your name forever and ever.

2 Every day I will bless You, And I will praise Your name forever and ever.

3 Great is the LORD , and highly to be praised, And His greatness is unsearchable .

Romans 11:33-34

33 Oh, the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are His judgments and unfathomable His ways!

34 For WHO HAS KNOWN THE MIND OF THE LORD , OR WHO BECAME HIS COUNSELOR?

Job 11:1-9

1 Then Zophar the Naamathite answered,

2 "Shall a multitude of words go unanswered, And a talkative man be acquitted?

3 "Shall your boasts silence men? And shall you scoff and none rebuke?

4 "For you have said, 'My teaching is pure, And I am innocent in your eyes.'

5 "But would that God might speak, And open His lips against you,

6 And show you the secrets of wisdom! For sound wisdom has two sides. Know then that God forgets a part of your iniquity.

7 "Can you discover the depths of God? Can you discover the limits of the Almighty?

8 "They are high as the heavens, what can you do? Deeper than Sheol, what can you know?

9 "Its measure is longer than the earth And broader than the sea.

Job 15:7-9

7 "Were you the first man to be born, Or were you brought forth before the hills?

8 "Do you hear the secret counsel of God, And limit wisdom to yourself?

9 "What do you know that we do not know? What do you understand that we do not?
