Job 21:21-29 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

21. For what interest has he in his family after him,when the number of his months is finished?

22. Can anyone teach God knowledge,seeing that he judges those on high?

23. One dies in his full vigor,wholly at ease and content;

24. His figure is full and nourished,his bones are moist with marrow.

25. Another dies with a bitter spirit,never having tasted happiness.

26. Alike they lie down in the dust,and worms cover them both.

27. See, I know your thoughts,and the arguments you plot against me.

28. For you say, “Where is the house of the great,and where the dwelling place of the wicked?”

29. Have you not asked the wayfarersand do you not acknowledge the witness they give?
