Job 21
- 1 And Job answereth and saith: --
- 2 Hear ye diligently my word, And this is your consolation.
- 3 Bear with me, and I speak, And after my speaking--ye may deride.
-
4 I--to man
is my complaint? and if so , wherefore May not my temper become short? - 5 Turn unto me, and be astonished, And put hand to mouth.
- 6 Yea, if I have remembered, then I have been troubled. And my flesh hath taken fright.
- 7 Wherefore do the wicked live? They have become old, Yea, they have been mighty in wealth.
- 8 Their seed is established, Before their face with them, And their offspring before their eyes.
-
9 Their houses
are peace without fear, Nor is a rod of God upon them. - 10 His bullock hath eaten corn, and doth not loath. His cow bringeth forth safely, And doth not miscarry.
- 11 They send forth as a flock their sucklings, And their children skip,
-
12 They lift
themselves up at timbrel and harp, And rejoice at the sound of an organ. -
13 They wear out in good their days, And in a moment
to Sheol go down. - 14 And they say to God, `Turn aside from us, And the knowledge of Thy ways We have not desired.
-
15 What
is the Mighty One that we serve Him? And what do we profit when we meet with Him?' -
16 Lo, not in their hand
is their good, (The counsel of the wicked Hath been far from me.) - 17 How oft is the lamp of the wicked extinguished, And come on them doth their calamity? Pangs He apportioneth in His anger.
- 18 They are as straw before wind, And as chaff a hurricane hath stolen away,
- 19 God layeth up for his sons his sorrow, He giveth recompense unto him--and he knoweth.
- 20 His own eyes see his destruction, And of the wrath of the Mighty he drinketh.
-
21 For what
is his delight in his house after him, And the number of his months cut off? -
22 To God doth
one teach knowledge, And He the high doth judge? -
23 This
one dieth in his perfect strength, Wholly at ease and quiet. - 24 His breasts have been full of milk, And marrow his bones doth moisten.
-
25 And this
one dieth with a bitter soul, And have not eaten with gladness. - 26 Together--on the dust they lie down, And the worm doth cover them over.
- 27 Lo, I have known your thoughts, And the devices against me ye do wrongfully.
-
28 For ye say, `Where
is the house of the noble? And where the tent--The tabernacles of the wicked?' - 29 Have ye not asked those passing by the way? And their signs do ye not know?
- 30 That to a day of calamity is the wicked spared. To a day of wrath they are brought.
-
31 Who doth declare to his face his way? And
for that which he hath done, Who doth give recompence to him? - 32 And he--to the graves he is brought. And over the heap a watch is kept.
- 33 Sweet to him have been the clods of the valley, And after him every man he draweth, And before him there is no numbering.
-
34 And how do ye comfort me
with vanity, And in your answers hath been left trespass?
