JOB-21:1 But Job answered and said, JOB-21:2 Hear diligently my speech, and let this be your consolations. JOB-21:3 Suffer me that I may speak; and after that I have spoken, mock on. JOB-21:4 As for me, [is] my complaint to man? and if [it were so], why should not my spirit be troubled? JOB-21:5 Mark me, and be astonished, and lay [your] hand upon [your] mouth. JOB-21:6 Even when I remember I am afraid, and trembling taketh hold on my flesh. JOB-21:7 Wherefore do the wicked live, become old, yea, are mighty in power? JOB-21:8 Their seed is established in their sight with them, and their offspring before their eyes. JOB-21:9 Their houses [are] safe from fear, neither [is] the rod of God upon them. JOB-21:10 Their bull gendereth, and faileth not; their cow calveth, and casteth not her calf. JOB-21:11 They send forth their little ones like a flock, and their children dance. JOB-21:12 They take the timbrel and harp, and rejoice at the sound of the organ. JOB-21:13 They spend their days in wealth, and in a moment go down to the grave. JOB-21:14 Therefore they say unto God, Depart from us; for we desire not the knowledge of thy ways. JOB-21:15 What [is] the Almighty, that we should serve him? and what profit should we have, if we pray unto him? JOB-21:16 Lo, their good [is] not in their hand: the counsel of the wicked is far from me. JOB-21:17 How oft is the candle of the wicked put out! and [how oft] cometh their destruction upon them! [God] distributeth sorrows in his anger. JOB-21:18 They are as stubble before the wind, and as chaff that the storm carrieth away. JOB-21:19 God layeth up his iniquity for his children: he rewardeth him, and he shall know [it]. JOB-21:20 His eyes shall see his destruction, and he shall drink of the wrath of the Almighty. JOB-21:21 For what pleasure [hath] he in his house after him, when the number of his months is cut off in the midst? JOB-21:22 Shall [any] teach God knowledge? seeing he judgeth those that are high. JOB-21:23 One dieth in his full strength, being wholly at ease and quiet. JOB-21:24 His breasts are full of milk, and his bones are moistened with marrow. JOB-21:25 And another dieth in the bitterness of his soul, and never eateth with pleasure. JOB-21:26 They shall lie down alike in the dust, and the worms shall cover them. JOB-21:27 Behold, I know your thoughts, and the devices [which] ye wrongfully imagine against me. JOB-21:28 For ye say, Where [is] the house of the prince? and where [are] the dwelling places of the wicked? JOB-21:29 Have ye not asked them that go by the way? and do ye not know their tokens, JOB-21:30 That the wicked is reserved to the day of destruction? they shall be brought forth to the day of wrath. JOB-21:31 Who shall declare his way to his face? and who shall repay him [what] he hath done? JOB-21:32 Yet shall he be brought to the grave, and shall remain in the tomb. JOB-21:33 The clods of the valley shall be sweet unto him, and every and shall draw after him, as [there are] innumerable before him. JOB-21:34 How then comfort ye me in vain, seeing in your answers there remaineth falsehood?  ~~~~~~
