Job 12:16-22

¹⁶True wisdom and power belong to Him.

The deceived and the deceiver are His.

¹⁷He leads counselors away barefoot

and makes fools of judges.

¹⁸He loosens the bonds placed by kings

and fastens a belt around their waists.

¹⁹He leads priests away barefoot

and overthrows the established.

²⁰He deprives the trusted of speech

and takes away the discernment of elders.

²¹He pours out contempt on nobles

and disarms the mighty.

²²He reveals the deep things of darkness

and brings deep shadows into light.
