Job 21:16

21:16 But their prosperity is not their own doing. ¹ 

The counsel of the wicked is far from me! ² 

[21:16]  ¹ tn Heb “is not in their hand.”

[21:16]  ² sn Even though their life seems so good in contrast to his own plight, Job cannot and will not embrace their principles – “far be from me their counsel.”
