Job 21:27-33
Evangelical Heritage Version
27 Oh, I know your thoughts
and your schemes to harm me.
28 For you say, “Where is the nobleman’s house,
and where is the tent, which was the dwelling of the wicked?”
29 Why don’t you question those who travel the roads?
Why don’t you acknowledge the lessons they learned?[a]
30 They say that the wicked man is spared from the day of disaster,
and that he escapes the day of raging fury.
31 Who denounces him to his face for the way he has lived?
Who repays him for what he has done?
32 When he is carried to the tombs,
when a vigil is kept at his burial mound,
33 the clods of dirt from the streambed are sweet to him.
Everyone follows his funeral procession.
A crowd of people marches ahead of it.[b]
Job 21:27-33
Lexham English Bible
27 “Look, I know your[a] thoughts
and the schemes you devise against me.
28 For you say, ‘Where is the nobleman’s house,
and where are the tents in which the wicked dwell?’[b]
29 Do you not ask those traveling the roads,
and do you not take notice of their accounts?
30 Indeed, the wicked is spared from the day of disaster;
he is delivered from the day of wrath.
31 Who denounces his way to his face?
And who repays him for what he has done?
32 When[c] he is brought to the grave,
then[d] someone stands guard over the tomb.
33 The clods of the valley are sweet to him;
everyone will follow after him,
and before[e] him they are innumerable.[f]
