— Job 12:19, Catholic Public Domain Version
“He leadeth princes away spoiled, and overthroweth the mighty.”
“He leadeth priests away stripped, And overthroweth the mighty. ”
“He leads priests away stripped, and overthrows the mighty.”
“He leads priests away stripped and overthrows the potentates.”
“He leadeth away priests without glory, and overthroweth nobles.”
“He makes priests prisoners, overturning those in safe positions;”
“He leadeth princes away spoiled, and overthroweth the mighty.”
With him is strength and wisdom; he knows both the deceiver and he who is deceived.
He leads advisors to a foolish end and judges to stupidity.
He removes the belt of kings and encircles their waist with a rope.
He leads away priests in dishonor and displaces nobles,
altering the lips of those who speak the truth and sweeping away the teaching of the aged.
He pours disdain upon the leaders, relieving those who had been oppressed.
He reveals the depths of the darkness, and he brings the shadow of death into the light.
