Job answers with biting irony that his friends are not the only wise ones and that even the beasts know what they claim to teach. He then delivers a magnificent meditation on the sovereign power of God, who holds the life of every creature, who leads counselors away stripped, overthrows the mighty, and pours contempt on princes: a wisdom and power that govern all, for good and for judgment.
