Job 21:7-13
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
7 Why do the wicked live on,
reach old age, and grow mighty in power?(A)
8 Their children are established in their presence
and their offspring before their eyes.(B)
9 Their houses are safe from fear,
and no rod of God is upon them.(C)
10 Their bull breeds without fail;
their cow calves and never miscarries.(D)
11 They send out their little ones like a flock,
and their children dance around.
12 They sing to the tambourine and the lyre
and rejoice to the sound of the pipe.(E)
13 They spend their days in prosperity,
and in peace they go down to Sheol.(F)
