Holman Christian Standard Bible

Job 24:18-23 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

18. They float on the surface of the water.Their section of the land is cursed,so that they never go to their vineyards.

19. As dry ground and heat snatch away the melted snow,so Sheol steals those who have sinned.

20. The womb forgets them;worms feed on them;they are remembered no more.So injustice is broken like a tree.

21. They prey on the childless woman who is unable to conceive,and do not deal kindly with the widow.

22. Yet God drags away the mighty by His power;when He rises up, they have no assurance of life.

23. He gives them a sense of security, so they can rely on it, but His eyes watch over their ways.
