New Testament

Job 36:16-20 New International Version (NIV)

16. “He is wooing you from the jaws of distress to a spacious place free from restriction, to the comfort of your table laden with choice food.

17. But now you are laden with the judgment due the wicked; judgment and justice have taken hold of you.

18. Be careful that no one entices you by riches; do not let a large bribe turn you aside.

19. Would your wealth or even all your mighty efforts sustain you so you would not be in distress?

20. Do not long for the night, to drag people away from their homes.
