Job 11:16-20 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

16. You can be sure you will forget your troubles. They will be like water that has flowed on by.

17. Life will be brighter than the sun at noon. And darkness will become like morning.

18. You will be secure, because there is hope. You will look around you and find a safe place to rest.

19. You will lie down, and no one will make you afraid. Many people will want you to show them your favor.

20. But sinful people won't find what they are looking for. They won't be able to escape. All they can hope for is to die."
