Job 21:22-26
New Living Translation
22 “But who can teach a lesson to God,
since he judges even the most powerful?
23 One person dies in prosperity,
completely comfortable and secure,
24 the picture of good health,
vigorous and fit.
25 Another person dies in bitter poverty,
never having tasted the good life.
26 But both are buried in the same dust,
both eaten by the same maggots.
Job 21:22-26

since he judges even the highest?(B)

completely secure and at ease,(D)
24 well nourished(E) in body,[a]
bones(F) rich with marrow.(G)
25 Another dies in bitterness of soul,(H)
never having enjoyed anything good.
26 Side by side they lie in the dust,(I)
and worms(J) cover them both.(K)

Job 21:22-26
King James Version
22 Shall any teach God knowledge? seeing he judgeth those that are high.
23 One dieth in his full strength, being wholly at ease and quiet.
24 His breasts are full of milk, and his bones are moistened with marrow.
25 And another dieth in the bitterness of his soul, and never eateth with pleasure.
26 They shall lie down alike in the dust, and the worms shall cover them.
