Job 12 · Grade 3
In God's Hand
Read the Story
Job answered Zophar. He said, I have understanding as well as you. He felt like a joke to his neighbor, even though he called on God and God answered him.
Job said, But ask the animals now, and they will teach you; the birds of the sky, and they will tell you. The earth and the fish of the sea will declare it too. They all know that Yahweh's hand has done this.
Job said that in God's hand is the life of every living thing, and the breath of all mankind. He said, With God is wisdom and might. He has counsel and understanding. God rules over kings, judges, and nations.
