Job 9:22-24
New King James Version
22 It is all one thing;
Therefore I say, (A)‘He destroys the blameless and the wicked.’
23 If the scourge slays suddenly,
He laughs at the plight of the innocent.
24 The earth is given into the hand of the wicked.
He covers the faces of its judges.
If it is not He, who else could it be?
Job 9:22-24
English Standard Version
22 It is all one; therefore I say,
‘He (A)destroys both the blameless and the wicked.’
23 When (B)disaster brings sudden death,
he mocks at the calamity[a] of the innocent.
24 (C)The earth is given into the hand of the wicked;
he (D)covers the faces of its judges—
(E)if it is not he, who then is it?
