Job 21:27-33

Common English Bible

²⁷ Look, I know your thoughts;
    your plans harm me.
²⁸ You say, “Where is the official’s house?
    Where is the tent, the dwelling of the wicked?”
²⁹ Haven’t you asked travelers
    or paid attention to their reports?
³⁰ On the day of disaster the wicked are spared;
    on the day of fury they are rescued.
³¹ Who can criticize their behavior to their faces;
    they act, and who can avenge them?
³² They are carried to their graves;
    someone keeps guard over their tombs.
³³ The soil near the desert streambed is sweet to them;
    everyone marches after them—
    those before them, beyond counting.
