Job 12:15
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
If He holds back the waters, they dry up, and if He releases them, they overwhelm the land.
In context
13 Wisdom and strength belong to God; counsel and understanding are His.
14 What He tears down cannot be rebuilt; the man He imprisons cannot be released.
15 If He holds back the waters, they dry up, and if He releases them, they overwhelm the land.
16 True wisdom and power belong to Him. The deceived and the deceiver are His.
17 He leads counselors away barefoot and makes fools of judges.
