Job 24:19-25

Third Millennium Bible TMB

19 Drought and heat consume the snow waters; so doth the grave those who have sinned.

20 The womb shall forget him, the worm shall feed sweetly on him; he shall be no more remembered, and wickedness shall be broken as a tree.

21 He evilly treateth the barren that beareth not, and doeth not good to the widow.

22 He draweth also the mighty with his power; he riseth up, and no man is sure of life.

23 Though it be given him to be in safety whereon he resteth, yet his eyes are upon their ways.

24 They are exalted for a little while, but are gone and brought low; they are taken out of the way as all others, and cut off as the tops of the ears of corn.

25 And if it be not so now, who will make me a liar and make my speech worth nothing?"

New International Version NIV

19 As heat and drought snatch away the melted snow, so the grave snatches away those who have sinned.

20 The womb forgets them, the worm feasts on them; the wicked are no longer remembered but are broken like a tree.

21 They prey on the barren and childless woman, and to the widow they show no kindness.

22 But God drags away the mighty by his power; though they become established, they have no assurance of life.

23 He may let them rest in a feeling of security, but his eyes are on their ways.

24 For a little while they are exalted, and then they are gone; they are brought low and gathered up like all others; they are cut off like heads of grain.

25 “If this is not so, who can prove me false and reduce my words to nothing?”
