Job 12:20

Douay-Rheims version of The Bible - 1752 version

He changeth the speech of the true speakers, and taketh away the doctrine of the aged.

See the chapter Copy

They that are aged are not the wise men: neither do the ancients understand judgment.

Thou hast set their heart far from understanding: therefore they shall not be exalted.

He changeth the heart of the princes of the people of the earth, and deceiveth them, that they walk in vain where there is no way.

Lying lips are an abomination to the Lord: but they that deal faithfully please him.

The lip of truth shall be steadfast for ever: but he that is a hasty witness, frameth a lying tongue.

The lips of the just teach many: but they that are ignorant, shall die in the want of understanding.

For God hath deprived her of wisdom: neither hath he given her understanding.
