Job 34:28-30

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

²⁸ So that they caused the cry of the poor to come to Him, and He heard the cry of the afflicted.^(A)

²⁹ When He gives quietness (peace and security from oppression), who then can condemn? When He hides His face [withdrawing His favor and help], who then can behold Him [and make Him gracious], whether it be a nation or a man by himself?—

³⁰ That the godless man may not reign, that there be no one to ensnare the people.
