THE HOLY BIBLE Authorized King James

Job (Author Job and/or Moses)

12:7But ask now the beasts, and they shall teach thee; and the fowls of the air, and they shall tell thee:

12:8Or speak to the earth, and it shall teach thee: and the fishes of the sea shall declare unto thee.

12:9Who knoweth not in all these that the hand of the LORD hath wrought this?

12:10In whose hand is the soul of every living thing, and the breath of all mankind.

12:11Doth not the ear try words? and the mouth taste his meat?

12:12With the ancient is wisdom; and in length of days understanding.

12:13With him is wisdom and strength, he hath counsel and understanding.

12:14Behold, he breaketh down, and it cannot be built again: he shutteth up a man, and there can be no opening.

12:15Behold, he withholdeth the waters, and they dry up: also he sendeth them out, and they overturn the earth.

12:16With him is strength and wisdom: the deceived and the deceiver are his.

35:10But none saith, Where is God my maker, who giveth songs in the night;

35:11Who teacheth us more than the beasts of the earth, and maketh us wiser than the fowls of heaven?

35:12There they cry, but none giveth answer, because of the pride of evil men.

37:1At this also my heart trembleth, and is moved out of his place.

37:2Hear attentively the noise of his voice, and the sound that goeth out of his mouth.

37:3He directeth it under the whole heaven, and his lightning unto the ends of the earth.

37:4After it a voice roareth: he thundereth with the voice of his excellency; and he will not stay them when his voice is heard.

37:5God thundereth marvellously with his voice; great things doeth he, which we cannot comprehend.

37:6For he saith to the snow, Be thou on the earth; likewise to the small rain, and to the great rain of his strength.

37:7He sealeth up the hand of every man; that all men may know his work.

37:8Then the beasts go into dens, and remain in their places.

37:9Out of the south cometh the whirlwind: and cold out of the north.

37:10By the breath of God frost is given: and the breadth of the waters is straitened.

37:11Also by watering he wearieth the thick cloud: he scattereth his bright cloud:

37:12And it is turned round about by his counsels: that they may do whatsoever he commandeth them upon the face of the world in the earth.

37:13He causeth it to come, whether for correction, or for his land, or for mercy.

37:14Hearken unto this, O Job: stand still, and consider the wondrous works of God.

37:15Dost thou know when God disposed them, and caused the light of his cloud to shine?

37:16Dost thou know the balancings of the clouds, the wondrous works of him which is perfect in knowledge?

37:17How thy garments are warm, when he quieteth the earth by the south wind?

37:18Hast thou with him spread out the sky, which is strong, and as a molten looking glass?

37:19Teach us what we shall say unto him; for we cannot order our speech by reason of darkness.

37:20Shall it be told him that I speak? if a man speak, surely he shall be swallowed up.

37:21And now men see not the bright light which is in the clouds: but the wind passeth, and cleanseth them.

37:22Fair weather cometh out of the north: with God is terrible majesty.

37:23Touching the Almighty, we cannot find him out: he is excellent in power, and in judgment, and in plenty of justice: he will not afflict.

37:24Men do therefore fear him: he respecteth not any that are wise of heart.
