15. Are you determined to walk in the pathsthat evil people have always followed?
16. Even before their time had come,they were washed away by a flood.
17. These are the ones who rejected Godand believed that he could do nothing to them.
18. And yet it was God who made them prosperous —I can't understand the thoughts of the wicked.
19. Good people are glad and the innocent laughwhen they see the wicked punished.
20. All that the wicked own is destroyed,and fire burns up anything that is left.
21. Now, Job, make peace with Godand stop treating him like an enemy;if you do, then he will bless you.
