Job 22:4-11
New International Version
Job 22:4-11
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)

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)

King James Version
Job 22:4-11
King James Version
4 Will he reprove thee for fear of thee? will he enter with thee into judgment?
5 Is not thy wickedness great? and thine iniquities infinite?
6 For thou hast taken a pledge from thy brother for nought, and stripped the naked of their clothing.
7 Thou hast not given water to the weary to drink, and thou hast withholden bread from the hungry.
8 But as for the mighty man, he had the earth; and the honourable man dwelt in it.
9 Thou hast sent widows away empty, and the arms of the fatherless have been broken.
10 Therefore snares are round about thee, and sudden fear troubleth thee;
11 Or darkness, that thou canst not see; and abundance of waters cover thee.
