1 Then Job, answering, said: 2 Are you, therefore, alone among men, and will wisdom die with you? 3 And I have a heart just as you also do, and I am not inferior to you. For who is ignorant of these things, which you know? 4 He who is mocked by his friends as I am, will call upon God, and he will listen to him because it is the sincerity of the just that is being mocked. 5 The lamp that is despised in the thoughts of the rich is ready for the appointed time. 6 The tabernacles of robbers are numerous, and they provoke God boldly; whereas, it is he who has given all things into their hands. 7 In truth, ask the mules, and they will teach you, and the birds of the sky, and they will reveal to you. 8 Speak with the earth, and it will respond to you, and the fish of the sea will explain. 9 Who is ignorant that the hand of the Lord has made all these things?
