"With God is wisdom and might. He has counsel and understanding.
14
Behold, he breaks down, and it can`t be built again; He imprisons a man, and there can be no release.
15
Behold, he withholds the waters, and they dry up; Again, he sends them out, and they overturn the earth.
16
With him is strength and wisdom; The deceived and the deceiver are his.
17
He leads counselors away stripped. He makes judges fools.
18
He loosens the bond of kings, He binds their loins with a belt.
19
He leads priests away stripped, And overthrows the mighty.
20
He removes the speech of those who are trusted, And takes away the understanding of the elders.
21
He pours contempt on princes, And loosens the belt of the strong.
22
He uncovers deep things out of darkness, And brings out to light the shadow of death.
23
He increases the nations, and he destroys them. He enlarges the nations, and he leads them captive.
24
He takes away understanding from the chiefs of the people of the earth, And causes them to wander in a wilderness where there is no way.
25
They grope in the dark without light. He makes them stagger like a drunken man.
