Job 21:17-26

How oft is the candle
<05216>
of the wicked
<07563>
put out
<01846> (8799)_!
and [how oft] cometh
<0935> (8799)
their destruction
<0343>
upon them! [God] distributeth
<02505> (8762)
sorrows
<02256>
in his anger
<0639>_.
{candle: or, lamp}
They are as stubble
<08401>
before
<06440>
the wind
<07307>_,
and as chaff
<04671>
that the storm
<05492>
carrieth away
<01589> (8804)_.
{carrieth: Heb. stealeth}
God
<0433>
layeth up
<06845> (8799)
his iniquity
<0205>
for his children
<01121>_:
he rewardeth
<07999> (8762)
him, and he shall know
<03045> (8799)
[it]. {his iniquity: that is, the punishment of his iniquity}
His eyes
<05869>
shall see
<07200> (8799)
his destruction
<03589>_,
and he shall drink
<08354> (8799)
of the wrath
<02534>
of the Almighty
<07706>_.
For what pleasure
<02656>
[hath] he in his house
<01004>
after
<0310>
him, when the number
<04557>
of his months
<02320>
is cut off in the midst
<02686> (8795)_?
Shall [any] teach
<03925> (8762)
God
<0410>
knowledge
<01847>_?
seeing he judgeth
<08199> (8799)
those that are high
<07311> (8802)_.
One dieth
<04191> (8799)
in his full
<08537>
strength
<06106>_,
being wholly at ease
<07946>
and quiet
<07961>_.
{his...: Heb. his very, or, the strength of, his perfection}
His breasts
<05845>
are full
<04390> (8804)
of milk
<02461>_,
and his bones
<06106>
are moistened
<08248> (8792)
with marrow
<04221>_.
{breasts: or, milk pails}
And another dieth
<04191> (8799)
in the bitterness
<04751>
of his soul
<05315>_,
and never eateth
<0398> (8804)
with pleasure
<02896>_.
They shall lie down
<07901> (8799)
alike
<03162>
in the dust
<06083>_,
and the worms
<07415>
shall cover
<03680> (8762)
them.
