Job 12:15-18 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

15. He holds back the waters and there is drought;he sends them forth and they overwhelm the land.

16. With him are strength and prudence;the misled and the misleaders are his.

17. He sends counselors away barefoot,makes fools of judges.

18. He loosens the belt of kings,ties a waistcloth on their loins.
