Job 12:23

Guds makt og styring

21 He pours out contempt on nobles and disarms the mighty.

22 He reveals the deep things of darkness and brings deep shadows into light.

He makes nations great and destroys them; He enlarges nations, then disperses them.

24 He deprives the earth’s leaders of reason and makes them wander in a trackless wasteland.

25 They grope in the darkness without light; He makes them stagger like drunkards.
