“Lest ye should say, We have found out wisdom: God thrusteth him down, not man.”
King James Version (KJV)
32:13 Left - God thus left you to your own weakness, lest you should ascribe the conquering or silencing of Job to your own wisdom. God - This is alleged by Elihu, in the person of Job's three friends; the sense is, the judgments which are upon Job, have not been brought upon him by man originally, but by the hand of God, for his gross, though secret sins: but, saith Elihu, this argument doth not satisfy me, and therefore bear with me if I seek for better.
Lest ye should say, We haue found out wisdom: God thrusteth him down, not man.
