Job 12:11

The ear scrutinizes speech just as the palate tastes food."

Since the ear tests words like a palate tastes food,

Have I said anything that's unjust? I can discern evil, can't I?"

I am talking to sensible people. Apply what I am saying to yourselves.

so that you may be able to choose what is best and be pure and blameless until the day when the Messiah returns,

But solid food is for mature people, whose minds are trained by practice to distinguish good from evil.

Surely you have tasted that the Lord is good!
