New Testament

Job 21:4-11 New English Translation (NET)

4. Is my complaint against a man?If so, why should I not be impatient?

5. Look at me and be appalled;put your hands over your mouths.

6. For, when I think about this, I am terrifiedand my body feels a shudder.

7. “Why do the wicked go on living,grow old, even increase in power?

8. Their children are firmly established in their presence,their offspring before their eyes.

9. Their houses are safe and without fear;and no rod of punishment from God is upon them.

10. Their bulls breed without fail;their cows calve and do not miscarry.

11. They allow their children to run like a flock;their little ones dance about.
