Job 36:5-12
Legacy Standard Bible
5 Behold, God is mighty but does not (A)reject;
He is (B)mighty in the power of His heart.
6 He does not (C)keep the wicked alive,
But gives justice to (D)the afflicted.
7 He does not (E)withdraw His eyes from the righteous;
But (F)with kings on the throne
He has seated them forever, and they are exalted.
8 And if they are bound in fetters,
And are caught in the cords of (G)affliction,
9 Then He declares to them their work
And their transgressions, that they have (H)magnified themselves.
10 (I)He opens their ear to discipline,
And (J)says that they return from wickedness.
11 If they hear and serve Him,
They will (K)end their days in prosperity
And their years in (L)pleasures.
12 But if they do not hear, they shall pass away (M)by a weapon
And they will (N)breathe their last without knowledge.
