22 Can anyone (A)teach God knowledge,
In that He (B)judges those on high?
23 One (C)dies in his full strength,
Being wholly carefree and at ease;
24 His [a]sides are filled out with fat,
And the (D)marrow of his bones is moist,
25 But another dies with a bitter soul,
Never even eats anything good.
26 Together they (E)lie down in the dust,
And (F)worms cover them.

Footnotes

  1. Job 21:24 As in Syr; Heb uncertain; some Heb mss render as his pails are full of milk

22 Shall any teach God knowledge,
Seeing he judgeth those that are high?
23 One dieth in his full strength,
Being wholly at ease and quiet:
24 His pails are full of milk,
And the marrow of his bones is moistened.
25 And another dieth in bitterness of soul,
And never tasteth of good.
26 They lie down alike in the dust,
And the worm covereth them.
