21:1 But Job [H347] answered [H6030] and said [H559] ,

21:2 Hear [H8085] diligently [H8085] my speech [H4405] , and let this be your consolations [H8575] .

21:3 Suffer [H5375] me that I may speak [H1696] ; and after [H310] that I have spoken [H1696] , mock on [H3932] .

21:4 As for me, [is] my complaint [H7879] to man [H120] ? and if [it were so], why should not my spirit [H7307] be troubled [H7114] ?(troubled: Heb. shortened?)

21:5 Mark [H6437] me, and be astonished [H8074] , and lay [H7760] [your] hand [H3027] upon [your] mouth [H6310] .(Mark: Heb. Look unto me)

21:6 Even when I remember [H2142] I am afraid [H926] , and trembling [H6427] taketh hold on [H270] my flesh [H1320] .

21:7 Wherefore do the wicked [H7563] live [H2421] , become old [H6275] , yea, are mighty [H1396] in power [H2428] ?

21:8 Their seed [H2233] is established [H3559] in their sight [H6440] with them, and their offspring [H6631] before their eyes [H5869] .

21:9 Their houses [H1004] [are] safe [H7965] from fear [H6343] , neither [is] the rod [H7626] of God [H433] upon them.(safe: Heb. peace from)

21:10 Their bull [H7794] gendereth [H5674] , and faileth [H1602] not; their cow [H6510] calveth [H6403] , and casteth not her calf [H7921] .

21:11 They send forth [H7971] their little ones [H5759] like a flock [H6629] , and their children [H3206] dance [H7540] .

21:12 They take [H5375] the timbrel [H8596] and harp [H3658] , and rejoice [H8055] at the sound [H6963] of the organ [H5748] .

21:13 They spend [H3615] [H1086] their days [H3117] in wealth [H2896] , and in a moment [H7281] go down [H2865] [H5181] to the grave [H7585] .(in wealth: or, in mirth)

21:14 Therefore they say [H559] unto God [H410] , Depart [H5493] from us; for we desire [H2654] not the knowledge [H1847] of thy ways [H1870] .

21:15 What [is] the Almighty [H7706] , that we should serve [H5647] him? and what profit [H3276] should we have, if we pray [H6293] unto him?

21:16 Lo, their good [H2898] [is] not in their hand [H3027] : the counsel [H6098] of the wicked [H7563] is far [H7368] from me.

21:17 How oft is the candle [H5216] of the wicked [H7563] put out [H1846] ! and [how oft] cometh [H935] their destruction [H343] upon them! [God] distributeth [H2505] sorrows [H2256] in his anger [H639] .(candle: or, lamp)

21:18 They are as stubble [H8401] before [H6440] the wind [H7307] , and as chaff [H4671] that the storm [H5492] carrieth away [H1589] .(carrieth: Heb. stealeth)

21:19 God [H433] layeth up [H6845] his iniquity [H205] for his children [H1121] : he rewardeth [H7999] him, and he shall know [H3045] [it].(his iniquity: that is, the punishment of his iniquity)

21:20 His eyes [H5869] shall see [H7200] his destruction [H3589] , and he shall drink [H8354] of the wrath [H2534] of the Almighty [H7706] .

21:21 For what pleasure [H2656] [hath] he in his house [H1004] after [H310] him, when the number [H4557] of his months [H2320] is cut off in the midst [H2686] ?

21:22 Shall [any] teach [H3925] God [H410] knowledge [H1847] ? seeing he judgeth [H8199] those that are high [H7311] .

21:23 One dieth [H4191] in his full [H8537] strength [H6106] , being wholly at ease [H7946] and quiet [H7961] .(his: Heb. his very, or, the strength of, his perfection)

21:24 His breasts [H5845] are full [H4390] of milk [H2461] , and his bones [H6106] are moistened [H8248] with marrow [H4221] .(breasts: or, milk pails)

21:25 And another dieth [H4191] in the bitterness [H4751] of his soul [H5315] , and never eateth [H398] with pleasure [H2896] .

21:26 They shall lie down [H7901] alike [H3162] in the dust [H6083] , and the worms [H7415] shall cover [H3680] them.

21:27 Behold, I know [H3045] your thoughts [H4284] , and the devices [H4209] [which] ye wrongfully imagine [H2554] against me.

21:28 For ye say [H559] , Where [is] the house [H1004] of the prince [H5081] ? and where [are] the dwelling [H4908] places [H168] of the wicked [H7563] ?(the dwelling: Heb. the tent of the tabernacles)

21:29 Have ye not asked [H7592] them that go [H5674] by the way [H1870] ? and do ye not know [H5234] their tokens [H226] ,

21:30 That the wicked [H7451] is reserved [H2820] to the day [H3117] of destruction [H343] ? they shall be brought forth [H2986] to the day [H3117] of wrath [H5678] .(wrath: Heb. wraths)

21:31 Who shall declare [H5046] his way [H1870] to his face [H6440] ? and who shall repay [H7999] him [what] he hath done [H6213] ?

21:32 Yet shall he be brought [H2986] to the grave [H6913] , and shall remain [H8245] in the tomb [H1430] .(grave: Heb. graves)(remain: Heb. watch in the heap)

21:33 The clods [H7263] of the valley [H5158] shall be sweet [H4985] unto him, and every man [H120] shall draw [H4900] after [H310] him, as [there are] innumerable [H4557] before [H6440] him.

21:34 How then comfort [H5162] ye me in vain [H1892] , seeing in your answers [H8666] there remaineth [H7604] falsehood [H4604] ?(falsehood: Heb. transgression?)
