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.
Job 21:27-33
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
27 “Oh, I know your thoughts
and your schemes to wrong me.
28 For you say, ‘Where is the house of the prince?
Where is the tent in which the wicked lived?’(A)
29 Have you not asked those who travel the roads,
and do you not accept their testimony,
30 that the wicked are spared in the day of calamity
and are rescued in the day of wrath?(B)
31 Who declares their way to their face,
and who repays them for what they have done?
32 When they are carried to the grave,
a watch is kept over their tomb.
33 The clods of the valley are sweet to them;
everyone will follow after,
and those who went before are innumerable.(C)
