Job 21:22-26
New International Version
22 “Can anyone teach knowledge to God,(A)
since he judges even the highest?(B)
23 One person dies in full vigor,(C)
completely secure and at ease,(D)
24 well nourished(E) in body,[a]
bones(F) rich with marrow.(G)
25 Another dies in bitterness of soul,(H)
never having enjoyed anything good.
26 Side by side they lie in the dust,(I)
and worms(J) cover them both.(K)

Job 21:22-26
Common English Bible
A common fate
22 Will they instruct God—
he who judges the most powerful?
23 Someone dies in wonderful health,
completely comfortable and well,
24 their buckets full of milk,
their bones marrow-filled and sound.
25 Another dies in bitter spirit,
never having tasted the good things.
26 They lie together in the dust
and worms cover them.
