Job 12:6 in Context — Job 12

4 Yo soy uno de quien su amigo se mofa, que invoca á Dios, y él le responde: con todo, el justo y perfecto es escarnecido.

5 Aquel cuyos pies van á resbalar, [es como] una lámpara despreciada de aquel que está á sus anchuras.

6 Prosperan las tiendas de los ladrones, y los que provocan á Dios viven seguros; en cuyas manos él ha puesto [cuanto tienen].

7 Y en efecto, pregunta ahora á las bestias, que ellas te enseñarán; y á las aves de los cielos, que ellas te lo mostrarán:

8 O habla á la tierra, que ella te enseñará; los peces de la mar te [lo] declararán también.
