Job 21:33-34

New Living Translation

³³A great funeral procession goes to the cemetery.
Many pay their respects as the body is laid to rest,
and the earth gives sweet repose.

³⁴“How can your empty clichés comfort me?
All your explanations are lies!”

Job 21:33-34

New International Version

³³The soil in the valley is sweet to them;^(A)
everyone follows after them,
and a countless throng goes^[a] before them.^(B)

³⁴“So how can you console me^(C) with your nonsense?
Nothing is left of your answers but falsehood!”^(D)

³³The clods of the valley shall be sweet unto him, and every man shall draw after him, as there are innumerable before him.

³⁴How then comfort ye me in vain, seeing in your answers there remaineth falsehood?
