Job 4:7-11
Lexham English Bible

7 “Think[a] now, who has perished who is innocent?
Or[b] where are the upright destroyed?
8 Just as I have seen, plowers of mischief
and sowers of trouble will reap it.
9 By[c] the breath of God they perish,
and by[d] the blast of his anger they come to an end.
10 The roar of the lion and the voice of a lion in its prime,
and the teeth of the young lions are broken.
11 The lion is perishing without[e] prey,
and the lion’s whelps 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.
