Job 12:10-12

Amplified Bible

¹⁰ 
In whose hand is the life of every living thing,
And the breath of all mankind?
¹¹ 
“Does the ear not put words to the test,
Just as the palate tastes its food [distinguishing between the desirable and the undesirable]?
¹² 
“With the aged [you say] is wisdom,
And with ^[a]long life is understanding.
