Job 22:12 in Context — Job 22

10 C’est pour cela que tu es entouré de pièges, Et que la terreur t’a saisi tout à coup.

11 Ne vois-tu donc pas ces ténèbres, Ces eaux débordées qui t’envahissent?

12 Dieu n’est-il pas en haut dans les cieux? Regarde le sommet des étoiles, comme il est élevé!

13 Et tu dis: Qu’est-ce que Dieu sait? Peut-il juger à travers l’obscurité?

14 Les nuées l’enveloppent, et il ne voit rien; Il ne parcourt que la voûte des cieux.
