1 Y RESPONDIÓ Job á Jehová, y dijo:
2 Yo conozco que todo lo puedes, y que no hay pensamiento que se esconda de ti.
3 ¿Quién es el que oscurece el consejo sin ciencia? por tanto yo denunciaba lo que no entendía; cosas que me eran ocultas, y que no las sabía.
4 Oye, te ruego, y hablaré: te preguntaré, y tú me enseñarás.
5 De oídas te había oído; mas ahora mis ojos te ven.
