He discovereth deep things out of darkness, and bringeth out to light the shadow of death.
He increaseth the nations, and destroyeth them: he enlargeth the nations, and straiteneth them [again].
He taketh away the heart of the chief of the people of the earth, and causeth them to wander in a wilderness [where there is] no way.
They grope in the dark without light, and he maketh them to stagger like [a] drunken [man].
Lo, mine eye hath seen all [this], mine ear hath heard and understood it.
What ye know, [the same] do I know also: I [am] not inferior unto you.
Surely I would speak to the Almighty, and I desire to reason with God.
But ye [are] forgers of lies, ye [are] all physicians of no value.
O that ye would altogether hold your peace! and it should be your wisdom.
Hear now my reasoning, and hearken to the pleadings of my lips.
