約伯記 24:19-21

Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)

¹⁹陰間吞噬犯罪之人，
如同乾熱吞噬融雪。
²⁰他們的生母忘記他們，
蟲子在他們身上飽餐。
沒有人再記得他們，
惡人像樹木一樣折斷。
²¹他們惡待不育的婦人，
毫不善待寡婦。

Job 24:19-21

New International Version

¹⁹As heat and drought snatch away the melted snow,^(A)
    so the grave^(B) snatches away those who have sinned.
²⁰The womb forgets them,
    the worm^(C) feasts on them;^(D)
the wicked are no longer remembered^(E)
    but are broken like a tree.^(F)
²¹They prey on the barren and childless woman,
    and to the widow they show no kindness.^(G)

Job 24:19-21

New King James Version

¹⁹As drought and heat ^[a]consume the snow waters,
So ^[b]the grave consumes those who have sinned.
²⁰The womb should forget him,
The worm should feed sweetly on him;
^(A)He should be remembered no more,
And wickedness should be broken like a tree.
²¹For he ^[c]preys on the barren who do not bear,
And does no good for the widow.
