Job 22:21-30
Christian Standard Bible
21 Come to terms with God and be at peace;(A)
in this way[a] good will come to you.
22 Receive instruction from his mouth,(B)
and place his sayings(C) in your heart.
23 If you return(D) to the Almighty, you will be renewed.
If you banish injustice from your tent
24 and consign your gold to the dust,
the gold of Ophir(E) to the stones in the wadis,
25 the Almighty will be your gold
and your finest silver.
26 Then you will delight(F) in the Almighty
and lift up your face to God.(G)
27 You will pray to him, and he will hear you,(H)
and you will fulfill your vows.
28 When you make a decision, it will be carried out,[b]
and light will shine on your ways.(I)
29 When others are humiliated and you say, “Lift them up,”
God will save the humble.[c](J)
30 He will even rescue the guilty one,
who will be rescued by the purity of your hands.(K)
Job 22:21-30
New Living Translation
21 “Submit to God, and you will have peace;
then things will go well for you.
22 Listen to his instructions,
and store them in your heart.
23 If you return to the Almighty, you will be restored—
so clean up your life.
24 If you give up your lust for money
and throw your precious gold into the river,
25 the Almighty himself will be your treasure.
He will be your precious silver!
26 “Then you will take delight in the Almighty
and look up to God.
27 You will pray to him, and he will hear you,
and you will fulfill your vows to him.
28 You will succeed in whatever you choose to do,
and light will shine on the road ahead of you.
29 If people are in trouble and you say, ‘Help them,’
God will save them.
30 Even sinners will be rescued;
they will be rescued because your hands are pure.”
