Job 27:12
 Job 27:12 
New International Version (© 2011)
You have all seen this yourselves. Why then this meaningless talk?

King James Bible
Behold, all ye yourselves have seen it; why then are ye thus altogether vain?

American Standard Version
Behold, all ye yourselves have seen it; Why then are ye become altogether vain?

Young's Literal Translation
Lo, ye -- all of you -- have seen, And why is this -- ye are altogether vain?

Job 27:12 Additional Translations
Clarke's Commentary on the Bible

Ye yourselves have seen it - Your own experience and observation have shown you that the righteous are frequently in affliction, and the wicked in affluence.

Why then are ye thus altogether vain? - The original is very emphatical: הבל תהבלו hebel tehbalu, and well expressed by Mr. Good: "Why then should ye thus babble babblings!" It our language would allow it, we might say vanitize vanity.
