Job 12:18-20
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
18 He loosens the belt of kings,
ties a waistcloth on their loins.[a]
19 He sends priests away barefoot,
leads the powerful astray.
20 He silences the trusted adviser,
takes discretion from the elders.
Footnotes
- 12:18 He reduces kings to the condition of slaves, who wear only a cloth wrapped about the waist.
