Job 12:11-16

11Does not the ear test words as the tongue tastes food?

12Is not wisdom found among the aged? Does not long life bring understanding?

13“To God belong wisdom and power; counsel and understanding are his.

14What he tears down cannot be rebuilt; those he imprisons cannot be released.

15If he holds back the waters, there is drought; if he lets them loose, they devastate the land.

16To him belong strength and insight; both deceived and deceiver are his.
