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, I pray thee, of the former generation, and attend to the researches of their fathers;”
“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?
