Job 22:12-20
New American Standard Bible
12 “Is God not (A)in the height of heaven?
Look also at the [a]highest stars, how high they are!
13 But you say, ‘(B)What does God know?
Can He judge through the thick darkness?
14 (C)Clouds are a hiding place for Him, so that He cannot see;
And He walks on the [b]vault of heaven.’
15 Will you keep to the ancient path
Which (D)wicked people have walked,
16 Who were snatched away (E)before their time,
Whose (F)foundations were [c]washed away by a river?
17 They (G)said to God, ‘Go away from us!’
And ‘What can [d]the Almighty do to them?’
18 Yet He (H)filled their houses with good things;
But (I)the advice of the wicked is far from me.
19 The (J)righteous see and are glad,
And the innocent mock them, saying,
20 ‘Truly our enemies are eliminated,
And (K)fire has consumed their [e]abundance.’
