Job 12:8 in Context — Job 12
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?
10 En su mano está el alma de todo viviente, y el espíritu de toda carne humana.
