Job 11:12

Full Chapter

September 23, 2025

KJV

For vain man would be wise, though man be born [like] a wild ass’s colt.

BSB

But a witless man can no more become wise than the colt of a wild donkey can be born a man!

WEB

An empty-headed man becomes wise when a man is born as a wild donkey’s colt.

YLT

And empty man is bold, And the colt of a wild ass man is born.

F.O.G MSG

¹²But the witless person will get understanding
when a wild donkey’s colt is born a human being!”ᶜ

Footnotes:

¹²ᶜ Wild donkey’s colt born a human: Zophar uses this impossible scenario to emphasize that Job gaining true understanding is equally unlikely—a harsh insult suggesting Job’s ignorance is permanent.
