Job 12:22-24

Lexham English Bible

²² “He uncovers mysteries out of darkness,
and he brings deep shadow to the light.
²³ He makes the nations great, then^[a] he destroys them;
he expands the nations, then^[b] he guides them.
²⁴ He strips away the insight of the heads of the earth’s people,
and he makes them wander in a pathless wasteland.^[c]
