Job 22:4-11
World English Bible
4 Is it for your piety that he reproves you,
that he enters with you into judgment?
5 Isn’t your wickedness great?
Neither is there any end to your iniquities.
6 For you have taken pledges from your brother for nothing,
and stripped the naked of their clothing.
7 You haven’t given water to the weary to drink,
and you have withheld bread from the hungry.
8 But as for the mighty man, he had the earth.
The honorable man, he lived in it.
9 You have sent widows away empty,
and the arms of the fatherless have been broken.
10 Therefore snares are around you.
Sudden fear troubles you,
11 or darkness, so that you can not see,
and floods of waters cover you.
Job 22:4-11
New American Standard Bible
4 Is it because of your [a]reverence that He punishes you,
That He (A)enters into judgment against you?
5 Is (B)your wickedness not abundant,
And is there no end to your guilty deeds?
6 For you have (C)seized pledges from your brothers without cause,
And [b](D)stripped people naked.
7 You have (E)given the weary no water to drink,
And you have (F)withheld bread from the hungry.
8 But the earth (G)belongs to the (H)powerful man,
And (I)the one who is honorable dwells on it.
9 You have sent (J)widows away empty,
And the [c]strength of (K)orphans has been crushed.
10 Therefore (L)traps surround you,
And sudden (M)dread terrifies you,
11 Or (N)darkness, so that you cannot see,
And a (O)flood of water covers you.
