New King James Version (NKJV)
Job 11
19 You would also lie down, and no one would make you afraid; Yes, many would court your favor.
20 But the eyes of the wicked will fail, And they shall not escape, And their hope--loss of life!"
Job 12
1 Then Job answered and said:
2 "No doubt you are the people, And wisdom will die with you!
3 But I have understanding as well as you; I am not inferior to you. Indeed, who does not know such things as these?
4 "I am one mocked by his friends, Who called on God, and He answered him, The just and blameless who is ridiculed.
5 A lamp is despised in the thought of one who is at ease; It is made ready for those whose feet slip.
6 The tents of robbers prosper, And those who provoke God are secure-- In what God provides by His hand.
7 "But now ask the beasts, and they will teach you; And the birds of the air, and they will tell you;
8 Or speak to the earth, and it will teach you; And the fish of the sea will explain to you.
9 Who among all these does not know That the hand of the Lord has done this,
We pray that this ministry will be a blessing to you and your family.
