Job 15:4-11
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 15
4Indeed, you do away with reverence, And hinder meditation before God. 5For your wrongdoing teaches your mouth, And you choose the language of the cunning. 6Your own mouth condemns you, and not I; And your own lips testify against you. 7'Were you the first person to be born, Or were you brought forth before the hills? 8Do you hear the secret discussion of God, And limit wisdom to yourself? 9What do you know that we do not know? What do you understand that we do not? 10Both the gray-haired and the aged are among us, Older than your father. 11Are the consolations of God too little for you, Or the word spoken gently to you?King James Version
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 15
4But you even undermine the fear of God and hinder meditation before him. 5Your iniquity teaches you what to say, and you choose the language of the crafty.
6Your own mouth condemns you, not I; your own lips testify against you.
7Were you the first human ever born, or were you brought forth before the hills?
8Do you listen in on the council of God, or have a monopoly on wisdom?
9What do you know that we don’t? What do you understand that is not clear to us?
10Both the gray-haired and the elderly are with us— older than your father.
11Are God’s consolations not enough for you, even the words that deal gently with you?
New Living Translation
Chapter 15
4Have you no fear of God, no reverence for him? 5Your sins are telling your mouth what to say. Your words are based on clever deception. 6Your own mouth condemns you, not I. Your own lips testify against you.
7'Were you the first person ever born? Were you born before the hills were made?
8Were you listening at God’s secret council? Do you have a monopoly on wisdom?
9What do you know that we don’t? What do you understand that we do not?
10On our side are aged, gray-haired men much older than your father!
English Standard Version
Chapter 15
4But you are doing away with the fear of God and hindering meditation before God. 5For your iniquity teaches your mouth, and you choose the tongue of the crafty. 6Your own mouth condemns you, and not I; your own lips testify against you. 7 "Are you the first man who was born? Or were you brought forth before the hills? 8Have you listened in the council of God? And do you limit wisdom to yourself? 9 What do you know that we do not know? What do you understand that is not clear to us? 10 Both the gray-haired and the aged are among us, older than your father. 11Are the comforts of God too small for you, or the word that deals gently with you?New International Version
Chapter 15
4But you even undermine piety and hinder devotion to God. 5Your sin prompts your mouth; you adopt the tongue of the crafty.
6Your own mouth condemns you, not mine; your own lips testify against you.
7"Are you the first man ever born? Were you brought forth before the hills?
8Do you listen in on God’s council? Do you have a monopoly on wisdom?
9What do you know that we do not know? What insights do you have that we do not have?
10The gray-haired and the aged are on our side, men even older than your father.
11Are God’s consolations not enough for you, words spoken gently to you?
