Job 12

The Latin Vulgate VUL

1 respondens autem Iob dixit

2 ergo vos estis soli homines et vobiscum morietur sapientia

3 et mihi est cor sicut et vobis nec inferior vestri sum quis enim haec quae nostis ignorat

4 qui deridetur ab amico suo sicut ego invocabit Deum et exaudiet eum deridetur enim iusti simplicitas

5 lampas contempta apud cogitationes divitum parata ad tempus statutum

6 abundant tabernacula praedonum et audacter provocant Deum cum ipse dederit omnia in manibus eorum

7 nimirum interroga iumenta et docebunt te et volatilia caeli et indicabunt tibi

8 loquere terrae et respondebit tibi et narrabunt pisces maris

9 quis ignorat quod omnia haec manus Domini fecerit

10 in cuius manu anima omnis viventis et spiritus universae carnis hominis

11 nonne auris verba diiudicat et fauces comedentis saporem

12 in antiquis est sapientia et in multo tempore prudentia

13 apud ipsum est sapientia et fortitudo ipse habet consilium et intellegentiam

14 si destruxerit nemo est qui aedificet et si incluserit hominem nullus est qui aperiat

15 si continuerit aquas omnia siccabuntur et si emiserit eas subvertent terram

16 apud ipsum est fortitudo et sapientia ipse novit et decipientem et eum qui decipitur

17 adducit consiliarios in stultum finem et iudices in stuporem

18 balteum regum dissolvit et praecingit fune renes eorum

19 ducit sacerdotes inglorios et optimates subplantat

20 commutans labium veracium et doctrinam senum auferens

21 effundit despectionem super principes et eos qui oppressi fuerant relevans

22 qui revelat profunda de tenebris et producit in lucem umbram mortis

23 qui multiplicat gentes et perdet eas et subversas in integrum restituet

24 qui inmutat cor principum populi terrae et decipit eos ut frustra incedant per invium

25 palpabunt quasi in tenebris et non in luce et errare eos faciet quasi ebrios

New American Standard Bible NAS

1 Then Job responded ,

2 "Truly then you are the people, And with you wisdom will die!

3 "But I have intelligence as well as you; I am not inferior to you. And who does not know such things as these?

4 "I am a joke to my friends, The one who called on God and He answered him; The just and blameless man is a joke.

5 "He who is at ease holds calamity in contempt, As prepared for those whose feet slip.

6 "The tents of the destroyers prosper, And those who provoke God are secure, Whom God brings into their power.

7 "But now ask the beasts, and let them teach you; And the birds of the heavens, and let them tell you.

8 "Or speak to the earth, and let it teach you; And let the fish of the sea declare to you.

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

10 In whose hand is the life of every living thing, And the breath of all mankind ?

11 "Does not the ear test words, As the palate tastes its food?

12 "Wisdom is with aged men, With long life is understanding.

13 "With Him are wisdom and might; To Him belong counsel and understanding.

14 "Behold, He tears down, and it cannot be rebuilt; He imprisons a man, and there can be no release.

15 "Behold, He restrains the waters, and they dry up; And He sends them out, and they inundate the earth.

16 "With Him are strength and sound wisdom, The misled and the misleader belong to Him.

17 "He makes counselors walk barefoot And makes fools of judges.

18 "He loosens the bond of kings And binds their loins with a girdle.

19 "He makes priests walk barefoot And overthrows the secure ones.

20 "He deprives the trusted ones of speech And takes away the discernment of the elders.

21 "He pours contempt on nobles And loosens the belt of the strong.

22 "He reveals mysteries from the darkness And brings the deep darkness into light.

23 "He makes the nations great, then destroys them; He enlarges the nations, then leads them away.

24 "He deprives of intelligence the chiefs of the earth's people And makes them wander in a pathless waste.

25 "They grope in darkness with no light, And He makes them stagger like a drunken man.
