Job 20:29
New King James Version
29 (A)This is the portion from God for a wicked man,
The heritage appointed to him by God.”
Job 20:5
New King James Version
5 (A)That the triumphing of the wicked is short,
And the joy of the hypocrite is but for a (B)moment?
Job 15:20-35
New King James Version
20 The wicked man writhes with pain all his days,
(A)And the number of years is hidden from the oppressor.
21 [a]Dreadful sounds are in his ears;
(B)In prosperity the destroyer comes upon him.
22 He does not believe that he will (C)return from darkness,
For a sword is waiting for him.
23 He (D)wanders about for bread, saying, ‘Where is it?’
He knows (E)that a day of darkness is ready at his hand.
24 Trouble and anguish make him afraid;
They overpower him, like a king ready for [b]battle.
25 For he stretches out his hand against God,
And acts defiantly against the Almighty,
26 Running stubbornly against Him
With his strong, embossed shield.
27 “Though(F) he has covered his face with his fatness,
And made his waist heavy with fat,
28 He dwells in desolate cities,
In houses which no one inhabits,
Which are destined to become ruins.
29 He will not be rich,
Nor will his wealth (G)continue,
Nor will his possessions overspread the earth.
30 He will not depart from darkness;
The flame will dry out his branches,
And (H)by the breath of His mouth he will go away.
31 Let him not (I)trust in futile things, deceiving himself,
For futility will be his reward.
32 It will be accomplished (J)before his time,
And his branch will not be green.
33 He will shake off his unripe grape like a vine,
And cast off his blossom like an olive tree.
34 For the company of hypocrites will be barren,
And fire will consume the tents of bribery.
35 (K)They conceive trouble and bring forth futility;
Their womb prepares deceit.”
Job 8:3-6
New King James Version
3 (A)Does God subvert judgment?
Or does the Almighty pervert justice?
4 If (B)your sons have sinned against Him,
He has cast them away [a]for their transgression.
5 (C)If you would earnestly seek God
And make your supplication to the Almighty,
6 If you were pure and upright,
Surely now He would [b]awake for you,
And prosper your rightful dwelling place.
Job 5:3-5
New King James Version
3 (A)I have seen the foolish taking root,
But suddenly I cursed his dwelling place.
4 His sons are (B)far from safety,
They are crushed in the gate,
And (C)there is no deliverer.
5 Because the hungry eat up his harvest,
[a]Taking it even from the thorns,
[b]And a snare snatches their [c]substance.
Job 4:8-11
New King James Version
8 Even as I have seen,
(A)Those who plow iniquity
And sow trouble reap the same.
9 By the blast of God they perish,
And by the breath of His anger they are consumed.
10 The roaring of the lion,
The voice of the fierce lion,
And (B)the teeth of the young lions are broken.
11 (C)The old lion perishes for lack of prey,
And the cubs of the lioness are scattered.
