Chapter 21
Job AB 21:2  Listen, listen to my words, that I may not have this consolation from you.
Job AB 21:3  Raise me, and I will speak; then you shall not laugh me to scorn.
Job AB 21:4  What! Is my reproof from man? And why should I not be angry?
Job AB 21:5  Look upon me and wonder, laying your hand upon your cheek.
Job AB 21:6  For even when I remember, I am alarmed, and pains seize my flesh.
Job AB 21:7  Why do the ungodly live, and grow old even in wealth?
Job AB 21:8  Their seed is according to their desire, and their children are in their sight.
Job AB 21:9  Their houses are prosperous, and safe from fear, neither is the rod of the Lord upon them.
Job AB 21:10  Their cow does not cast her calf, and their beast with young is safe, and does not miscarriage.
Job AB 21:11  And they remain as an unfailing flock, and their children play before them, taking up the psaltery and harp;
Job AB 21:13  And they spend their days in wealth, and fall asleep in the rest of the grave.
Job AB 21:14  Yet such a man says to the Lord, Depart from me; I desire not to know Your ways.
Job AB 21:15  What is the Mighty One, that we should serve Him? And what profit is there that we should approach Him?
Job AB 21:16  For their good things were in their hands, but He regards not the works of the ungodly.
Job AB 21:17  Nevertheless, the lamp of the ungodly also shall be put out, and destruction shall come upon them, and pangs of vengeance shall seize them.
Job AB 21:18  And they shall be as chaff before the wind, or as dust which the storm has taken up.
Job AB 21:19  Let his substance fail to supply his children: God shall recompense him, and he shall know it.
Job AB 21:20  Let his eyes see his own destruction, and let him not be saved by the Lord.
Job AB 21:21  For his desire is in his house with him, and the number of his months has been suddenly cut off.
Job AB 21:22  Is it not the Lord who teaches understanding and knowledge? And does He not judge murders?
Job AB 21:23  One shall die in his perfect strength, and wholly at ease and prosperous;
Job AB 21:24  and his inwards are full of fat, and his marrow is diffused throughout him.
Job AB 21:25  And another dies in bitterness of soul, not eating any good thing.
Job AB 21:26  But they lie down in the dust together, and corruption covers them.
Job AB 21:27  So I know you, that you presumptuously attack me,
Job AB 21:28  so that you will say, Where is the house of the prince? And where is the covering of the tabernacles of the ungodly?
Job AB 21:29  Ask those that go by the way, and do not disown their tokens.
Job AB 21:30  For the wicked hastens to the day of destruction: they shall be led away for the day of His vengeance.
Job AB 21:31  Who will tell him his way to his face, since he has done it? Who shall recompense him?
Job AB 21:32  And he has been led away to the tombs, and he has watched over the heaps.
Job AB 21:33  The stones of the valley have been sweet to him, and every man shall depart after him, and there are innumerable ones before him.
Job AB 21:34  How then do you comfort me in vain? Since I have no rest from your molestation.
