Job 12:7 in Context — Job 12

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.

9 ¿Qué cosa de todas estas no entiende que la mano de Jehová la hizo?
