job 12:13 With him is wisdom and strength, he hath counsel and understanding. - Free Bible Online

job 12:13 "With Him are wisdom and might; To Him belong counsel and understanding.


      13. In contrast to, "with the ancient is wisdom" (Job 12:12), Job quotes a saying of the ancients which suits his argument, "with Him (God) is (the true) wisdom" (Pr 8:14); and by that "wisdom and strength" "He breaketh down," &c., as an absolute Sovereign, not allowing man to penetrate His mysteries; man's part is to bow to His unchangeable decrees (Job 1:21). The Mohammedan saying is, "if God will, and how God will."

JFB.
