Job 22:12-20
New International Version
12 “Is not God in the heights of heaven?(A)
And see how lofty are the highest stars!
13 Yet you say, ‘What does God know?(B)
Does he judge through such darkness?(C)
14 Thick clouds(D) veil him, so he does not see us(E)
as he goes about in the vaulted heavens.’(F)
15 Will you keep to the old path
that the wicked(G) have trod?(H)
16 They were carried off before their time,(I)
their foundations(J) washed away by a flood.(K)
17 They said to God, ‘Leave us alone!
What can the Almighty do to us?’(L)
18 Yet it was he who filled their houses with good things,(M)
so I stand aloof from the plans of the wicked.(N)
19 The righteous see their ruin and rejoice;(O)
the innocent mock(P) them, saying,
20 ‘Surely our foes are destroyed,(Q)
and fire(R) devours their wealth.’
Job 22:12-20
Holman Christian Standard Bible
12 Isn’t God as high as the heavens?
And look at the highest stars—how lofty they are!
13 Yet you say: “What does God know?
Can He judge through thick darkness?(A)
14 Clouds(B) veil Him so that He cannot see,
as He walks on the circle of the sky.”
15 Will you continue on the ancient path
that wicked men have walked?
16 They were snatched away before their time,
and their foundations(C) were washed away by a river.
17 They were the ones who said to God, “Leave us alone!”
and “What can the Almighty do to us?”[a](D)
18 But it was He who filled their houses with good things.
The counsel of the wicked is far from me!
19 The righteous see this and rejoice;
the innocent mock them, saying,(E)
20 “Surely our opponents are destroyed,
and fire has consumed what they left behind.”(F)
