Job 4:7-11
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
7 “Think now, who that was innocent ever perished?
Or where were the upright cut off?(A)
8 As I have seen, those who plow iniquity
and sow trouble reap the same.(B)
9 By the breath of God they perish,
and by the blast of his anger they are consumed.(C)
10 The roar of the lion, the voice of the fierce lion,
and the teeth of the young lions are broken.(D)
11 The strong lion perishes for lack of prey,
and the whelps of the lioness are scattered.(E)
Job 4:7-11
New Living Translation
7 “Stop and think! Do the innocent die?
When have the upright been destroyed?
8 My experience shows that those who plant trouble
and cultivate evil will harvest the same.
9 A breath from God destroys them.
They vanish in a blast of his anger.
10 The lion roars and the wildcat snarls,
but the teeth of strong lions will be broken.
11 The fierce lion will starve for lack of prey,
and the cubs of the lioness will be scattered.
