Job 21:26-30
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 21
26Together they lie down in the dust, And maggots cover them. 27'Behold, I know your thoughts, And the plots you devise against me. 28For you say, ‘Where is the house of the nobleman, And where is the tent, the dwelling places of the wicked?’ 29Have you not asked travelers, And do you not examine their evidence? 30For the wicked person is spared a day of disaster; They are led away from a day of fury.King James Version
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 21
26But they both lie in the dust, and worms cover them. 27I know your thoughts very well, the schemes by which you would wrong me. 28For you say, "Where now is the nobleman’s house?" and "Where are the tents the wicked lived in?" 29Have you never consulted those who travel the roads? Don’t you accept their reports? 30Indeed, the evil person is spared from the day of disaster, rescued from the day of wrath.New Living Translation
27'Look, I know what you’re thinking. I know the schemes you plot against me.
28You will tell me of rich and wicked people whose houses have vanished because of their sins.
29But ask those who have been around, and they will tell you the truth.
30Evil people are spared in times of calamity and are allowed to escape disaster.
English Standard Version
Chapter 21
26They lie down alike in the dust, and the worms cover them. 27"Behold, I know your thoughts and your schemes to wrong me. 28For you say, ‘Where is the house of the prince? Where is the tent in which the wicked lived?’ 29Have you not asked those who travel the roads, and do you not accept their testimony 30that the evil man is spared in the day of calamity, that he is rescued in the day of wrath?New International Version
Chapter 21
26Side by side they lie in the dust, and worms cover them both. 27"I know full well what you are thinking, the schemes by which you would wrong me. 28You say, ‘Where now is the house of the great, the tents where the wicked lived?’ 29Have you never questioned those who travel? Have you paid no regard to their accounts— 30that the wicked are spared from the day of calamity, that they are delivered from the day of wrath?New King James Version
