New Testament

Job 36:6-13 Modern English Version (MEV)

6. He does not preserve the life of the wicked,but gives justice to the poor.

7. He does not withdraw His eyes from the righteous;but they are on the throne with kings,for He establishes them forever, and they are exalted.

8. If they are bound in chainsand held in cords of affliction,

9. then He shows them their work,and their transgressions that they have exceeded;

10. and He opens their ear to discipline,and commands that they turn from iniquity.

11. If they obey and serve Him,they will spend their days in prosperityand their years in pleasures.

12. But if they do not obey,they will perish by the sword,and they will die without knowledge.

13. “But the hypocrites in heart heap up wrath;they do not cry out when He binds them.
