22 “Shall any teach God knowledge,
    since he judges those who are high?
23 One dies in his full strength,
    being wholly at ease and quiet.
24 His pails are full of milk.
    The marrow of his bones is moistened.
25 Another dies in bitterness of soul,
    and never tastes of good.
26 They lie down alike in the dust.
    The worm covers them.

22 “Can(A) anyone teach God knowledge,
Since He judges those on high?
23 One dies in his full strength,
Being wholly at ease and secure;
24 His [a]pails are full of milk,
And the marrow of his bones is moist.
25 Another man dies in the bitterness of his soul,
Never having eaten with pleasure.
26 They (B)lie down alike in the dust,
And worms cover them.
