Job 18:3

Why are we regarded as cattle,
as stupid in your sight?

I was stupid and didn’t understand;
I was an unthinking animal toward You.

But ask the animals, and they will instruct you;
ask the birds of the sky, and they will tell you.

You have closed their minds to understanding,
therefore You will not honor them.

But come back and try again, all of you.
I will not find a wise man among you.

I said to myself, “This happens concerning people, so that God may test them and they may see for themselves that they are like animals.”

Show family affection to one another with brotherly love. Outdo one another in showing honor.

Wherefore are we counted as beasts, and reputed vile in your sight?

But ask the animals, and they will instruct you;
ask the birds of the sky, and they will tell you.

You have closed their minds to understanding,
therefore You will not honor them.

I was stupid and didn’t understand;
I was an unthinking animal toward You.

I said to myself, “This happens concerning people, so that God may test them and they may see for themselves that they are like animals.”

Show family affection to one another with brotherly love. Outdo one another in showing honor.
