Job 21 AKJV — Job 21

1 But Job answered and said, AKJV — Job 21:1

2 Hear diligently my speech, and let this be your consolations. AKJV — Job 21:2

3 Suffer me that I may speak; and after that I have spoken, mock on. AKJV — Job 21:3

4 As for me, is my complaint to man? and if it were so, why should not my spirit be troubled? AKJV — Job 21:4

5 Mark me, and be astonished, and lay your hand on your mouth. AKJV — Job 21:5

6 Even when I remember I am afraid, and trembling takes hold on my flesh. AKJV — Job 21:6

7 Why do the wicked live, become old, yes, are mighty in power? AKJV — Job 21:7

8 Their seed is established in their sight with them, and their offspring before their eyes. AKJV — Job 21:8

9 Their houses are safe from fear, neither is the rod of God on them. AKJV — Job 21:9

10 Their bull engenders, and fails not; their cow calves, and casts not her calf. AKJV — Job 21:10

11 They send forth their little ones like a flock, and their children dance. AKJV — Job 21:11

12 They take the tambourine and harp, and rejoice at the sound of the organ. AKJV — Job 21:12

13 They spend their days in wealth, and in a moment go down to the grave. AKJV — Job 21:13

14 Therefore they say to God, Depart from us; for we desire not the knowledge of your ways. AKJV — Job 21:14

15 What is the Almighty, that we should serve him? and what profit should we have, if we pray to him? AKJV — Job 21:15

16 See, their good is not in their hand: the counsel of the wicked is far from me. AKJV — Job 21:16

17 How oft is the candle of the wicked put out! and how oft comes their destruction on them! God distributes sorrows in his anger. AKJV — Job 21:17

18 They are as stubble before the wind, and as chaff that the storm carries away. AKJV — Job 21:18

19 God lays up his iniquity for his children: he rewards him, and he shall know it. AKJV — Job 21:19

20 His eyes shall see his destruction, and he shall drink of the wrath of the Almighty. AKJV — Job 21:20

21 For what pleasure has he in his house after him, when the number of his months is cut off in the middle? AKJV — Job 21:21

22 Shall any teach God knowledge? seeing he judges those that are high. AKJV — Job 21:22

23 One dies in his full strength, being wholly at ease and quiet. AKJV — Job 21:23

24 His breasts are full of milk, and his bones are moistened with marrow. AKJV — Job 21:24

25 And another dies in the bitterness of his soul, and never eats with pleasure. AKJV — Job 21:25

26 They shall lie down alike in the dust, and the worms shall cover them. AKJV — Job 21:26

27 Behold, I know your thoughts, and the devices which you wrongfully imagine against me. AKJV — Job 21:27

28 For you say, Where is the house of the prince? and where are the dwelling places of the wicked? AKJV — Job 21:28

29 Have you not asked them that go by the way? and do you not know their tokens, AKJV — Job 21:29

30 That the wicked is reserved to the day of destruction? they shall be brought forth to the day of wrath. AKJV — Job 21:30

31 Who shall declare his way to his face? and who shall repay him what he has done? AKJV — Job 21:31

32 Yet shall he be brought to the grave, and shall remain in the tomb. AKJV — Job 21:32

33 The clods of the valley shall be sweet to him, and every man shall draw after him, as there are innumerable before him. AKJV — Job 21:33

34 How then comfort you me in vain, seeing in your answers there remains falsehood? AKJV — Job 21:34
