Job 5:27

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

Lo this, we have searched it, so it is; hear it, and know thou it for thy good.

"For inquire now of the former generation, and pay attention to the findings of their ancestors;

"Without a doubt you are the people, and wisdom will die with you.

What do you know that we don't know? What do you understand that we don't understand?

Look, I waited for you to speak; I listened closely to your wise thoughts,while you were searching for words.

The Lord's deeds are great, eagerly awaited by all who desire them.

indeed, if you call out for discernment -- raise your voice for understanding --

"Is it to God that a strong man is of benefit? Is it to him that even a wise man is profitable?

and to keep the Lord's commandments and statutes that I am giving you today for your own good?

If you are wise, you are wise to your own advantage, but if you are a mocker, you alone must bear it.
