Job 21:16-18

Common English Bible

¹⁶ Look, isn’t their well-being the work of their own hands?
    A sinner’s logic is beyond me.

¹⁷ How often does the lamp of the wicked flicker
    or disaster come upon them,
    with its fury inflicting pain on them?
¹⁸ Let them be like straw in the wind,
    like dry grass stolen by a storm.
