God's Word Translation

Job 36:13-20 God's Word Translation (GW)

13. But those who have godless hearts remain angry.They don’t even call for help when he chains them up.

14. They die while they’re young,or they live on as male prostitutes in the temples of idols.

15. He rescues suffering people through their suffering,and he opens their ears through distress.

16. “Yes, he lured you away from the jaws of troubleinto an open area where you were not restrained,and your table was covered with rich foods.

17. But you are given the judgment evil people deserve.A fair judgment will be upheld.

18. Be careful that you are not led astray with riches.Don’t let a large bribe turn you ⌊to evil ways⌋.

19. Will your riches save you from having to suffer?Will all your mighty strength help you?

20. Don’t look forward to the night,when people disappear from their places.
