Job 24:18-25
New American Standard Bible
Job 24:18-25
New American Standard Bible
18 “They are [a](A)insignificant on the surface of the water;
Their plot of land on the earth is (B)cursed.
They do not turn [b]toward the (C)vineyards.
19 Dryness and heat (D)snatch away the snow waters,
As [c](E)Sheol snatches those who have sinned.
20 A [d](F)mother will forget him;
The (G)maggot feeds sweetly until he is (H)no longer remembered.
And injustice will be broken (I)like a tree.
21 He wrongs the [e]infertile woman,
And does no good for (J)the widow.
22 But He drags off the mighty by (K)His power;
He rises, but (L)no one has assurance of life.
23 He provides them (M)with security, and they are supported;
And His (N)eyes are on their ways.
24 They are exalted a (O)little while, then they are gone;
Moreover, they are (P)brought low, and like everything they are gathered up;
Like the heads of grain they wither.
25 Now if it is not so, (Q)who can prove me a liar,
And make my speech worthless?”
Job 24:18-25
Revised Standard Version
Job 24:18-25
Revised Standard Version
18 “You say, ‘They are swiftly carried away upon the face of the waters;
their portion is cursed in the land;
no treader turns toward their vineyards.
19 Drought and heat snatch away the snow waters;
so does Sheol those who have sinned.
20 The squares of the town[a] forget them;
their name[b] is no longer remembered;
so wickedness is broken like a tree.’
21 “They feed on the barren childless woman,
and do no good to the widow.
22 Yet God[c] prolongs the life of the mighty by his power;
they rise up when they despair of life.
23 He gives them security, and they are supported;
and his eyes are upon their ways.
24 They are exalted a little while, and then are gone;
they wither and fade like the mallow;[d]
they are cut off like the heads of grain.
25 If it is not so, who will prove me a liar,
and show that there is nothing in what I say?”
Job 24:18-25

New International Version
18 “Yet they are foam(A) on the surface of the water;(B)
their portion of the land is cursed,(C)
so that no one goes to the vineyards.(D)
19 As heat and drought snatch away the melted snow,(E)
so the grave(F) snatches away those who have sinned.
20 The womb forgets them,
the worm(G) feasts on them;(H)
the wicked are no longer remembered(I)
but are broken like a tree.(J)
21 They prey on the barren and childless woman,
and to the widow they show no kindness.(K)
22 But God drags away the mighty by his power;(L)
though they become established,(M) they have no assurance of life.(N)
23 He may let them rest in a feeling of security,(O)
but his eyes(P) are on their ways.(Q)
24 For a little while they are exalted, and then they are gone;(R)
they are brought low and gathered up like all others;(S)
they are cut off like heads of grain.(T)
25 “If this is not so, who can prove me false
and reduce my words to nothing?”(U)
