Verse
Job - ch 21 v 21 - 34
- For what interest has he in his house after him, when the number of his months is ended?
- Is anyone able to give teaching to God? for he is the judge of those who are on high.
- One comes to his end in complete well-being, full of peace and quiet:
- His buckets are full of milk, and there is no loss of strength in his bones.
- And another comes to his end with a bitter soul, without ever tasting good.
- Together they go down to the dust, and are covered by the worm.
- See, I am conscious of your thoughts, and of your violent purposes against me;
- For you say, Where is the house of the ruler, and where is the tent of the evil-doer?
- Have you not put the question to the travellers, and do you not take note of their experience?
- How the evil man goes free in the day of trouble, and has salvation in the day of wrath?
- Who will make his way clear to his face? and if he has done a thing, who gives him punishment for it?
- He is taken to his last resting-place, and keeps watch over it.
- The earth of the valley covering his bones is sweet to him, and all men come after him, as there were unnumbered before him.
- Why then do you give me comfort with words in which there is no profit, when you see that there is nothing in your answers but deceit?
