Verse 15 is found in chapter 12 of Job. Job describes God as possessing absolute wisdom and power, able to overthrow and raise nations, undo plans, and alter the conditions of rulers and peoples. Divine sovereignty is not in dispute; what remains unresolved is how that sovereignty should be understood when it produces or permits circumstances that appear unjust.
