Job 34:21-30
New American Standard Bible
21 “For (A)His eyes are upon the ways of a person,
And He sees all his steps.
22 There is (B)no darkness or deep shadow
Where the workers of injustice can hide themselves.
23 For He does not (C)need to consider a person further,
That he should go before God in judgment.
24 He breaks in pieces the (D)mighty without investigation,
And sets others in their place.
25 Therefore He (E)knows their deeds,
And (F)He overthrows them in the night,
And they are crushed.
26 He (G)strikes them like the wicked
[a]In a public place,
27 Because they (H)turned aside from following Him,
And (I)had no regard for any of His ways,
28 So that they caused (J)the cry of the poor to come to Him,
And that He would (K)hear the cry of the afflicted—
29 When He keeps quiet, who can condemn?
And when He hides His face, who then can look at Him,
That is, regarding both nation and a person?—
30 So that (L)godless people would not rule,
Nor be snares for the people.

- Job 34:26 Lit In the place of the ones seeing
Job 34:21-30
International Standard Version
21 Yes, Job,[a] his eyes constantly watch the behavior of human beings;
he carefully observes their every step.
22 There’s no such thing as darkness to him—
not even deep darkness—
that can conceal those who practice evil.
23 He won’t examine mankind further,
that they would go before God to judgment.
24 He shatters valiant men without a need to investigate,
and he raises others in their place.
25 Thus he acknowledges their behavior, and overcomes them;
when night time comes, they are crushed.
26 “He strikes[b] the wicked among them
in a place where they can be seen
27 because they’ve abandoned their pursuit of him
and had no respect for any of his ways.
28 As a result, the cries of the poor have reached him
and he has heard the cry of the afflicted.
29 “If he remains silent, who will condemn him?
If he conceals his face, who can see him?
He watches over both nation and individual alike,
30 to keep the godless man from reigning
or laying a snare for the people.”
