Job 22:4-11

Job 22:4-11
New American Standard Bible
4 Is it because of your [a]reverence that He punishes you,
That He (A)enters into judgment against you?
5 Is (B)your wickedness not abundant,
And is there no end to your guilty deeds?
6 For you have (C)seized pledges from your brothers without cause,
And [b](D)stripped people naked.
7 You have (E)given the weary no water to drink,
And you have (F)withheld bread from the hungry.
8 But the earth (G)belongs to the (H)powerful man,
And (I)the one who is honorable dwells on it.
9 You have sent (J)widows away empty,
And the [c]strength of (K)orphans has been crushed.
10 Therefore (L)traps surround you,
And sudden (M)dread terrifies you,
11 Or (N)darkness, so that you cannot see,
And a (O)flood of water covers you.

Job 22:4-11
Christian Standard Bible
4 Does he correct you and take you to court
because of your piety?(A)
5 Isn’t your wickedness abundant
and aren’t your iniquities endless?
6 For you took collateral(B) from your brothers without cause,
stripping off their clothes and leaving them naked.
7 You gave no water to the thirsty
and withheld food from the famished,(C)
8 while the land belonged to a powerful man
and an influential man lived on it.
9 You sent widows away empty-handed,
and the strength of the fatherless(D) was[a] crushed.
10 Therefore snares surround you,
and sudden dread terrifies(E) you,
11 or darkness, so you cannot see,
and a flood of water covers you.(F)

New International Version
4 “Is it for your piety that he rebukes you
and brings charges against you?(A)
5 Is not your wickedness great?
Are not your sins(B) endless?(C)
6 You demanded security(D) from your relatives for no reason;(E)
you stripped people of their clothing, leaving them naked.(F)
7 You gave no water(G) to the weary
and you withheld food from the hungry,(H)
8 though you were a powerful man, owning land(I)—
an honored man,(J) living on it.(K)
9 And you sent widows(L) away empty-handed(M)
and broke the strength of the fatherless.(N)
10 That is why snares(O) are all around you,(P)
why sudden peril terrifies you,(Q)
11 why it is so dark(R) you cannot see,
and why a flood of water covers you.(S)
