1 And Job will answer and say,

2 Verily that ye are the people, and shall wisdom die with you?

3 Also to me a heart like you; I fall not more than you: and with whom not like these?

4 I shall be he laughing at his neighbor, calling to God, and he will answer him: the just blameless one being laughed at.

5 To misfortune is contempt to the thoughts of him at ease, being prepared for the waverings of the foot.

6 The tents to those oppressing will be secure, and confidence to those provoking God to anger: whom God will bring into his hand.

7 But ask now the beasts and they shall teach thee; and the birds of the heavens, and they shall announce to thee:

8 Or speak to the earth and it shall teach thee; and the fishes of the sea shall recount to thee.

9 Who knew not in all these that the hand of God did this?
