Job 36:13-20 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

13. And the godless of heart cherish anger; they do not cry for help when he binds them.

14. They die in their youth, and their life ends among the male shrine prostitutes.

15. He delivers the afflicted by his misery, and he opens their ears by the adversity.

16. And what’s more, he allured you out of distress into a broad place, where in place of it was no constraint; and what was set on your table is full of fatness.

17. But you are obsessed with the judgment of the wicked; judgment and justice take hold of you.

18. Yes, it is wrath, so that it will not incite you into mockery; and do not let the ransom’s greatness turn you aside.

19. Will your cry for help sustain you without distress, or all the efforts of your strength?

20. You must not long for the night, to cut off people in their place.
