King James Version
"For enquire, I pray thee, of the former age, and prepare thyself to the search of their fathers:"
— Job 8:8, King James Version
“ For inquire, I pray thee, of the former age, And apply thyself to that which their fathers have searched out ”
“"Please inquire of past generations. Find out about the learning of their fathers.”
““For inquire now of the former generation, and pay attention to the findings of their ancestors;”
“For inquire of the former generation, and search diligently into the memory of the fathers:”
“Put the question now to the past generations, and give attention to what has been searched out by their fathers:”
“For enquire, I pray thee, of the former age, and prepare thyself to the search of their fathers:”
If thou wouldest seek unto God betimes, and make thy supplication to the Almighty;
If thou wert pure and upright; surely now he would awake for thee, and make the habitation of thy righteousness prosperous.
Though thy beginning was small, yet thy latter end should greatly increase.
For enquire, I pray thee, of the former age, and prepare thyself to the search of their fathers:
(For we are but of yesterday, and know nothing, because our days upon earth are a shadow:)
Shall not they teach thee, and tell thee, and utter words out of their heart?
Can the rush grow up without mire? can the flag grow without water?
