rotherham@Job:21:1 @ Then responded Job, and said:

rotherham@Job:21:2 @ Hear ye patiently my words, and let this be your consolation:

rotherham@Job:21:3 @ Suffer me, that, I, may speak, and, after I have spoken, thou canst mock!

rotherham@Job:21:4 @ Did, I, unto man, make my complaint? Wherefore, then, should my spirit not be impatient?

rotherham@Job:21:5 @ Turn round to me, and be astonished, and lay hand on mouth!

rotherham@Job:21:6 @ When I call to mind, then am I dismayed, and there seizeth my flesh a shuddering:

rotherham@Job:21:7 @ Wherefore do, lawless men, live, advance in years, even wax mighty in power?

rotherham@Job:21:8 @ Their seed, is established in their sight, along with them, yea their offspring, before their eyes;

rotherham@Job:21:9 @ Their houses, are at peace, without dread, neither is, the rod of GOD, upon them;

rotherham@Job:21:10 @ His bull, covereth, and causeth not aversion, His cow safely calveth, and casteth not her young;

rotherham@Job:21:11 @ They send forthlike a flocktheir young ones, and, their children, skip about for joy;

rotherham@Job:21:12 @ They rejoice aloud as timbrel and lyre, and make merry to the sound of the pipe;

rotherham@Job:21:13 @ They complete, in prosperity, their days, and, in a moment to hades, they sink down.

rotherham@Job:21:14 @ Yet they said unto GOD, Depart from us, and, In the knowledge of thy ways, find we no pleasure.

rotherham@Job:21:15 @ What is the Almighty, that we should serve him? Or what shall we profit, that we should urge him?

rotherham@Job:21:16 @ Lo! not in their own hand, is their welfare, The counsel of lawless men, is far from me!

rotherham@Job:21:17 @ How oft, the lamp of the lawless, goeth out, and their calamity, cometh upon them, Sorrows, apportioneth he in his anger;

rotherham@Job:21:18 @ They become as straw before the wind, and as chaff, which the storm stealeth away.

rotherham@Job:21:19 @ Shall, GOD, reserve, for his children, his sorrow? Let him recompense him so that he may know it;

rotherham@Job:21:20 @ His own eyes, shall see his misfortune, and, the wrath of the Almighty, shall he drink.

rotherham@Job:21:21 @ For what shall be his pleasure in his house after him, when, the number of his months, is cut in twain?

rotherham@Job:21:22 @ Is it, to GOD, one can teach knowledge, seeing that, he, shall judge, them who are on high?

rotherham@Job:21:23 @ This, man dieth, in the very perfection of his prosperity, wholly tranquil and secure;

rotherham@Job:21:24 @ His veins, are filled with nourishment, and, the marrow of his bones, is fresh;

rotherham@Job:21:25 @ Whereas, this other man, dieth, in bitterness of soul, and hath never tasted good fortune:

rotherham@Job:21:26 @ Together, in the dust, they lie down, and, the worm, spreadeth a covering over them.

rotherham@Job:21:27 @ Lo! I know your plans, and the devices, wherewith ye would do me violence!

rotherham@Job:21:28 @ For ye say, Where is the house of the noble-minded? And where the dwelling-tent of the lawless?

rotherham@Job:21:29 @ Have ye not asked the passers-by in the way? And, their signs, can ye not recognise?

rotherham@Job:21:30 @ That, to the day of calamity, is the wicked reserved, to the day of indignant visitation, are they led.

rotherham@Job:21:31 @ Who can declareto his facehis way? And, what, he, hath done, who shall recompense to him?

rotherham@Job:21:32 @ Yet, he, to the graves, is borne, and, over the tomb, one keepeth watch;

rotherham@Job:21:33 @ Pleasant to him are the mounds of the torrent-bed, and, after him, doth every man march, as, before him, there were without number.

rotherham@Job:21:34 @ How then should ye comfort me with vanity, since, as for your replies, there lurketh,
