Job 12:7-8

But ask now the beasts, and they shall teach thee; and the fowls of the air, and they shall tell thee:

Ask now the beasts ... and the fowls ... and the fish. Beasts birds, fish, and plants, reasons Job, teach that the violent live the most securely (Job 12:6). The vulture lives more securely than the dove, the lion than the ox, the shark than the dolphin, the thorn which tears it than the rose.

Speak to the earth, х siyach (H7878)] - either 'meditate upon' or "speak to the earth" - i:e., the animals of the earth.
