Job 34:10-20
Lexham English Bible
10 “Therefore, listen to me, people who have sense:[a]
far be it from God that he should commit wickedness[b]
and that Shaddai should do wrong.[c]
11 Indeed, he will repay according to a human being’s deeds,
and according to a man’s way he will let it happen to him.
12 What’s more, God truly does not act wickedly,
and Shaddai does not pervert justice.
13 Who gave him charge over the earth?
Or[d] who laid on him the whole world?
14 If he should set his heart to it,
and he should gather his spirit and his breath to himself,
15 all flesh would perish together,
and humankind would return to dust.
16 “But[e] if you have understanding, hear this;
listen to what I say.[f]
17 Shall he who hates justice really govern?
Or will you[g] declare the Righteous One, the Mighty, guilty?—
18 the one who says to a king,
‘You worthless man,’ to noblemen, ‘You wicked man,’
19 who shows no partiality to officials[h]
and who does not take note of the noble more than of the insignificant,[i]
for all of them are the work of his hands?
20 In a moment they die,
and in the middle of the night the people are shaken, and they pass away,
and they take away the mighty effortlessly.[j]

Job 34:10-20
New American Standard Bible
10 “Therefore, listen to me, you men of understanding.
Far be it from God to (A)do evil,
And from the Almighty to do wrong.
11 For He repays a person for (B)his work,
And lets things happen in correspondence to a man’s [a]behavior.
12 (C)God certainly will not act wickedly,
And the Almighty will not pervert justice.
13 Who (D)gave Him authority over the earth?
And who (E)has placed the whole world on Him?
14 If He were to [b]determine to do so,
If He were to (F)gather His [c]spirit and His breath to Himself,
15 [d](G)Humanity would perish together,
And mankind would (H)return to dust.
16 “But if you have understanding, hear this;
Listen to the sound of my words.
17 Shall (I)one who hates justice rule?
And (J)will you condemn the righteous mighty One,
18 Who says to a king, ‘You worthless one,’
To nobles, ‘You wicked one’;
19 Who shows no (K)partiality to the prominent,
Nor regards the rich as above the poor,
Since they are all the (L)work of His hands?
20 In a moment they die, and (M)at midnight
People are shaken and pass away,
And (N)the powerful are taken away without a hand.
