Job 21:15-17
International Children’s Bible

15 Who is God All-Powerful that we should serve him?
    We would gain nothing by praying to him.’
16 But the wicked think they succeed by their own strength.
    Their way of thinking is not godly.
17 Yet how often is the lamp of evil people turned off?
    How often does trouble come to them?
    How often do they suffer the punishment God plans in his anger?

    so I stand aloof from the plans of the wicked.(B)

17 “Yet how often is the lamp of the wicked snuffed out?(C)
    How often does calamity(D) come upon them,
    the fate God allots in his anger?(E)
