Jubilee Bible

Job 21:11-25 Jubilee Bible (JUB)

11. They send forth their little ones like a flock of sheep, and their children dance.

12. They jump at the sound of the timbrel and harp and rejoice at the sound of the organ.

13. They spend their days in pleasure and in a moment go down to Sheol.

14. Therefore, they say unto God, Depart from us; for we do not desire the knowledge of thy ways.

15. Who is the Almighty that we should serve him? And what profit should we have if we pray unto him?

16. Behold that their good is not in their hands; the counsel of the wicked is far from me.

17. How often is the lamp of the wicked put out and their destruction comes upon them, and God distributes sorrows upon them in his anger.

18. They shall be as stubble before the wind and as chaff taken up by the whirlwind.

19. God shall lay up his violence for their sons; and he will reward him so that he shall know it.

20. His eyes shall see his destruction, and he shall drink of the wrath of the Almighty.

21. For what delight shall he have in his house after him, being cut off in the number of his months?

22. Shall he teach God knowledge, seeing he judges those that are high?

23. This one shall die in the full strength of his beauty, being completely at ease and quiet.

24. His breasts are full of milk, and his bones are moistened with marrow.

25. And another dies in the bitterness of his soul, never having eaten with pleasure.
