Job 15:17-23 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

17. “Job, listen to me, and I will tell you about it.I will tell you what I have seen.

18. These are things wise men have told.Their ancestors told them these things, and they have hidden nothing.

19. (The land was given to their fathers only.No foreigner lived among them.)

20. The evil man suffers pain all his life.The cruel man suffers during all the years saved up for him.

21. Terrible sounds fill his ears.When things seem to be going well, robbers attack him.

22. The evil person gives up trying to escape from the darkness.It has been decided that he will die by the sword.

23. He wanders around. He will become food for vultures.He knows death will soon come.
