King James Version
What Does Job 12:7 Mean?
“But ask now the beasts, and they shall teach thee; and the fowls of the air, and they shall tell thee:”
King James Version
“But ask now the beasts, and they shall teach thee; and the fowls of the air, and they shall tell thee:”
He that is ready to slip with his feet is as a lamp despised in the thought of him that is at ease.
The tabernacles of robbers prosper, and they that provoke God are secure; into whose hand God bringeth abundantly.
But ask now the beasts, and they shall teach thee; and the fowls of the air, and they shall tell thee:
Or speak to the earth, and it shall teach thee: and the fishes of the sea shall declare unto thee.
Who knoweth not in all these that the hand of the LORD hath wrought this?
