Job 34:16-30
16If you have understanding, hear this; listen to my words.17Could one who hates justice govern? Will you condemn the just and mighty One,18who says to kings, ‘You are worthless!’ and to nobles, ‘You are wicked,’19who is not partial to princes and does not favor rich over poor? For they are all the work of His hands.20They die in an instant, in the middle of the night. The people convulse and pass away; the mighty are removed without human hand.
21For His eyes are on the ways of a man,and He sees his every step.22There is no darkness or deep shadowwhere the workers of iniquity can hide.23For God need not examine a man furtheror have him approach for judgment.24He shatters the mighty without inquiryand sets up others in their place.25Therefore, He recognizes their deeds;He overthrows them in the night and they are crushed.26He strikes them for their wickednessin full view,27because they turned aside from Himand had no regard for any of His ways.28They caused the cry of the poor to come before Him,and He heard the outcry of the afflicted.29But when He remains silent, who can condemn Him?When He hides His face, who can see Him?Yet He watches over both man and nation,30that godless men should not ruleor lay snares for the people.
