Job 24:21-23
Lexham English Bible

21 He feeds on the barren, who does not have a child,
and does no good to the widow.
22 Yet[a] he[b] carries off the tyrants by his strength;
if he rises up, then[c] he[d] cannot be certain of life.[e]
23 He[f] gives security to him, and he is[g] supported,
but[h] his eyes are upon their ways.

Job 24:21-23
King James Version

21 He evil entreateth the barren that beareth not: and doeth not good to the widow.

22 He draweth also the mighty with his power: he riseth up, and no man is sure of life.

23 Though it be given him to be in safety, whereon he resteth; yet his eyes are upon their ways.
