Job 24:21-23
English Standard Version
21 “They wrong the barren, childless woman,
and do no good to the widow.
22 Yet God[a] prolongs the life of the mighty by his power;
they rise up when they despair of life.
23 He gives them security, and they are supported,
and his (A)eyes are upon their ways.

21 They prey on the barren and childless woman,
and to the widow they show no kindness.
22 But God drags away the mighty by his power;
though they become established, they have no assurance of life.
23 He may let them rest in a feeling of security,
but his eyes are on their ways.
