Good News Bible

Job 21:27-33 Good News Bible (GNB)

27. I know what spiteful thoughts you have.

28. You ask, “Where are the houses of great people now,those who practised evil?”

29. Haven't you talked with people who travel?Don't you know the reports they bring back?

30. On the day God is angry and punishes,it is the wicked who are always spared.

31. There is no one to accuse the wickedor pay them back for all they have done.

32. When they are carried to the graveyard,to their well-guarded tombs,

33. thousands join the funeral procession,and even the earth lies gently on their bodies.
