Job 29:17-21
New American Standard Bible

Chapter 29

17I broke the jaws of the wicked And rescued the prey from his teeth. 18Then I thought, ‘I will die with my family, And I will multiply my days as the sand. 19My root is spread out to the waters, And dew lies on my branch all night. 20My glory is ever new with me, And my bow is renewed in my hand.’ 21'To me they listened and waited, And they kept silent for my advice.
King James Version

Chapter 29

17And I brake the jaws of the wicked, and plucked the spoil out of his teeth. 18Then I said, I shall die in my nest, and I shall multiply my days as the sand.
19My root was spread out by the waters, and the dew lay all night upon my branch.
20My glory was fresh in me, and my bow was renewed in my hand. 21Unto me men gave ear, and waited, and kept silence at my counsel.
Christian Standard Bible

Chapter 29

17I shattered the fangs of the unjust and snatched the prey from his teeth. 18So I thought, "I will die in my own nest and multiply my days as the sand. 19My roots will have access to water, and the dew will rest on my branches all night.
20My whole being will be refreshed within me, and my bow will be renewed in my hand." 21Men listened to me with expectation, waiting silently for my advice.
New Living Translation

Chapter 29

17I broke the jaws of godless oppressors and plucked their victims from their teeth.
18'I thought, ‘Surely I will die surrounded by my family after a long, good life. 19For I am like a tree whose roots reach the water, whose branches are refreshed with the dew. 20New honors are constantly bestowed on me, and my strength is continually renewed.’
21'Everyone listened to my advice. They were silent as they waited for me to speak.
English Standard Version

17I broke the fangs of the wicked and snatched the victims from their teeth. 18"I thought, ‘I will die in my own house, my days as numerous as the grains of sand. 19My roots will reach to the water, and the dew will lie all night on my branches.
20My glory will not fade; the bow will be ever new in my hand.’ 21"People listened to me expectantly, waiting in silence for my counsel.
