Job 36:13-20 English Standard Version (ESV)

13. “The godless in heart cherish anger;they do not cry for help when he binds them.

14. They die in youth,and their life ends among the cult prostitutes.

15. He delivers the afflicted by their afflictionand opens their ear by adversity.

16. He also allured you out of distressinto a broad place where there was no cramping,and what was set on your table was full of fatness.

17. “But you are full of the judgment on the wicked;judgment and justice seize you.

18. Beware lest wrath entice you into scoffing,and let not the greatness of the ransom turn you aside.

19. Will your cry for help avail to keep you from distress,or all the force of your strength?

20. Do not long for the night,when peoples vanish in their place.
