Job 22:5-11 New English Translation (NET)

5. Is not your wickedness greatand is there no end to your iniquity?

6. “For you took pledges from your brothers for no reason,and you stripped the clothing from the naked.

7. You gave the weary no water to drinkand from the hungry you withheld food.

8. Although you were a powerful man, owning land,an honored man living on it,

9. you sent widows away empty-handed,and the arms of the orphans you crushed.

10. That is why snares surround you,and why sudden fear terrifies you,

11. why it is so dark you cannot see,and why a flood of water covers you.
