5 In the thought of him who is at ease there is contempt for misfortune, It is ready for them whose foot slips.
6 The tents of robbers prosper, Those who provoke God are secure; Who carry their God in their hands.
7 "But ask the animals, now, and they shall teach you; The birds of the sky, and they shall tell you.
8 Or speak to the earth, and it shall teach you; The fish of the sea shall declare to you.
9 Who doesn`t know that in all these, The hand of Yahweh has done this,
10 In whose hand is the life of every living thing, The breath of all mankind?
11 Doesn`t the ear try words, Even as the palate tastes its food?
