Job 4:7-11
New American Standard Bible
7 “Remember now, (A)who ever perished being innocent?
Or where were the upright destroyed?
8 According to what I have seen, (B)those who [a]plow wrongdoing
And those who sow trouble harvest it.
9 By (C)the breath of God they perish,
And (D)by the [b]blast of His anger they come to an end.
10 The (E)roaring of the lion and the voice of the fierce lion,
And the teeth of the young lions are broken out.
11 The (F)lion perishes for lack of prey,
And the (G)cubs of the lioness are scattered.
Job 4:7-11
International Standard Version
7 Now please think:
Who has ever perished when they’re innocent?
Where have the upright been destroyed?
8 It’s been my experience that those who plow the soil of[a] iniquity
and those who sow the seed of[b] trouble will reap their harvest![c]
9 They perish by the breath of God;
they are consumed by the storm that is[d] his anger.[e]
10 “The lioness may roar,
and the lion cub may growl;
but even the ivory teeth of the full grown lion are broken.
11 Full grown lions die when they cannot find prey;
that’s when the lion cubs are scattered.
