Job 21:27-33
Amplified Bible
27
“Behold, I know your thoughts,
And the plots by which you would wrong me.
28
“For you say, ‘Where is the house of the noble man?
And where is the tent, the dwelling place of the wicked?’
29
“Have you not asked those who travel this way,
And do you not recognize their witness?
30
“That evil men are [now] reserved for the day of disaster and destruction,
They will be led away on the day of [God’s] wrath?
31
“But who will confront him with his actions and rebuke him face to face,
And who will repay him for what he has done?
32
“When he is carried to his grave,
A guard will keep watch over his tomb.
33
“The [dirt] clods of the valley are sweet to him [and gently cover him],
Moreover, all men will follow after him [to a grave],
While countless ones go before him.
Job 21:27-33
New American Standard Bible
27 “Behold, I know your thoughts,
And the plots you devise against me.
28 For you say, ‘Where is the house of (A)the nobleman,
And where is the (B)tent, the dwelling places of the wicked?’
29 Have you not asked travelers,
And do you not examine their [a]evidence?
30 For the (C)wicked person is spared [b]a day of disaster;
They [c]are led away from (D)a day of fury.
31 Who [d]confronts him with his actions,
And who repays him for what he has done?
32 When he is carried to the grave,
People will keep watch over his tomb.
33 The (E)clods of the valley will [e]gently cover him;
Moreover, (F)all mankind will [f]follow after him,
While countless others go before him.
