Job 34:21-33 World Messianic Bible British Edition (WMBBE)

21. “For his eyes are on the ways of a man.He sees all his goings.

22. There is no darkness, nor thick gloom,where the workers of iniquity may hide themselves.

23. For he doesn’t need to consider a man further,that he should go before God in judgement.

24. He breaks in pieces mighty men in ways past finding out,and sets others in their place.

25. Therefore he takes knowledge of their works.He overturns them in the night, so that they are destroyed.

26. He strikes them as wicked menin the open sight of others;

27. because they turned away from following him,and wouldn’t pay attention to any of his ways,

28. so that they caused the cry of the poor to come to him.He heard the cry of the afflicted.

29. When he gives quietness, who then can condemn?When he hides his face, who then can see him?Alike whether to a nation, or to a man,

30. that the godless man may not reign,that there be no one to ensnare the people.

31. “For has any said to God,‘I am guilty, but I will not offend any more.

32. Teach me that which I don’t see.If I have done iniquity, I will do it no more’?

33. Shall his recompense be as you desire, that you refuse it?For you must choose, and not I.Therefore speak what you know.
