He undoes the chains of kings, and puts his band on them;

Truly, my eye has seen all this, word of it has come to my ear, and I have knowledge of it.

There is wealth in the tents of those who make destruction, and those by whom God is moved to wrath are safe; even those whose god is their strength.

Or to the things which go flat on the earth, and they will give you wisdom; and the fishes of the sea will give you news of it.

I will take my flesh in my teeth, and put my life in my hand.

But I would have talk with the Ruler of all, and my desire is to have an argument with God.

But you put a false face on things; all your attempts to put things right are of no value.

They go feeling about in the dark without light, wandering without help like those overcome with wine.

Then truly your face will be lifted up, with no mark of sin, and you will be fixed in your place without fear:

With him there is wisdom and strength; power and knowledge are his.

Job 12

If only you would keep quiet, it would be a sign of wisdom!

He will certainly put you right, if you have respect for persons in secret.

For your sorrow will go from your memory, like waters flowing away:

If you put far away the evil of your hands, and let no wrongdoing have a place in your tent;

The same things are in my mind as in yours; I am equal to you.

Are not words tested by the ear, even as food is tasted by the mouth?

And you will be safe because there is hope; after looking round, you will take your rest in quiet;

He takes away the wisdom of the wise guides, and makes judges foolish;

Give ear to the argument of my mouth, and take note of the words of my lips.

Will you have respect for God's person in this cause, and put yourselves forward as his supporters?

It seems that I am to be as one who is a cause of laughing to his neighbour, one who makes his prayer to God and is answered! the upright man who has done no wrong is to be made sport of!

And Job made answer and said,

In the thought of him who is in comfort there is no respect for one who is in trouble; such is the fate of those whose feet are slipping.

Keep quiet, and let me say what is in my mind, whatever may come to me.

He makes priests prisoners, overturning those in safe positions;

But I have a mind as well as you; I am equal to you: yes, who has not knowledge of such things as these?

Sleeping with no fear of danger; and men will be desiring to have grace in your eyes;

Will you say in God's name what is not right, and put false words into his mouth?

In whose hand is the soul of every living thing, and the breath of all flesh of man.
