Job 5:12 in Context — Job 5
10 Il répand la pluie sur la terre, Et envoie l’eau sur les campagnes;
11 Il relève les humbles, Et délivre les affligés;
12 Il anéantit les projets des hommes rusés, Et leurs mains ne peuvent les accomplir;
13 Il prend les sages dans leur propre ruse, Et les desseins des hommes artificieux sont renversés:
14 Ils rencontrent les ténèbres au milieu du jour, Ils tâtonnent en plein midi comme dans la nuit.
