New Century Version

Job 4:4-9 New Century Version (NCV)

4. Your words have comforted those who fell,and you have strengthened those who could not stand.

5. But now trouble comes to you, and you are discouraged;trouble hits you, and you are terrified.

6. You should have confidence because you respect God;you should have hope because you are innocent.

7. “Remember that the innocent will not die;honest people will never be destroyed.

8. I have noticed that people who plow eviland plant trouble, harvest it.

9. God’s breath destroys them,and a blast of his anger kills them.
