JOB 21:1–21:34 ©

The Book of Job 21

21And Job answered and said,

2“Hearing, hear my words,

and let this be your consolation.

3Tolerate me and I will speak,

and after I have spoken, you may mock.

4As for me, is my complaint to a man?

And if, why may my breath not be short?

5Look at me and wonder,

and lay the hand upon the mouth.

6For when I remember, then I am terrified,

and trembling seizes my flesh.

7Why do the wicked live,

grow old, and become mighty in power?

8Their seed is established with them to their faces,

and their descendants to their eyes.

9Their houses are peace, without fear,

and the rod of God is not upon them.

10His bull breeds and it does not fail;

his cow calves and it does not miscarry.

11They send out their babes like a flock,

and their children dance.

12They lift up the tambourine and the harp,

and they rejoice to the sound of the flute.

13They spend their days in prosperity,

and they go down to Sheol in a moment.

14They say to God, ‘Turn away from us,

for we do not desire knowledge of your ways.

15Who is Shaddai, that we should serve him?

And how will we profit, that we should pray to him?’

16Behold, their prosperity is not in their hand!

May the counsel of the wicked be far from me!

17How often does the lamp of the wicked go out,

or does their calamity come upon them?

How often, in his nose, does he distribute pains?

18How often are they like stubble to the face of the wind

or like chaff that a storm carries away?

19‘God lays up his guilt for his sons.’

Let him repay to him, and he will know!

20Let his eyes see his destruction,

and from the wrath of Shaddai let him drink.

21For what is his interest in his house after him

when the number of his months is cut off?

22Will one teach knowledge to God,

since he judges the ones being high?

23This one dies in the bone of his perfection;

all of him is tranquil and secure.

24His pails are full of milk,

and the marrow of his bones is moistened.

25But that one dies in the soul of bitterness,

and he has not eaten the good.

26They lie down alike in the dust,

and the worm covers over them.

27Behold, I know your thoughts

and the notions you wrest against me.

28For you say, ‘Where is the house of the tyrant?

Where is the tent of the habitation of the wicked?’

29Have you not asked travelers of the way?

Or do you not acknowledge their signs,

30that the wicked is spared in the day of calamity;

in the day of wrath they are brought forth?

31Who will denounce his way to his face?

And what he has done, who will repay to him?

32Indeed, he will be brought forth to the grave,

and one will watch over the burial mound.

33The clods of the torrent will be sweet to him,

and every man will extend after him,

and to his face there is not numbering.

34So how do you comfort me in vain?

And falsehood is left in your answers!”
