King James Version

Job 34:16-22

16If now thou hast understandingH998, hearH8085 this: hearkenH238 to the voiceH6963 of my wordsH4405.

17Shall even he that hatethH8130 rightH4941 governH2280? and wilt thou condemnH7561 him that is mostH3524 justH6662?1

18Is it fit to sayH559 to a kingH4428, Thou art wickedH1100? and to princesH5081, Ye are ungodlyH7563?

19How much less to him that acceptethH5375 not the personsH6440 of princesH8269, nor regardethH5234 the richH7771 more thanH6440 the poorH1800? for they all are the workH4639 of his handsH3027.

20In a momentH7281 shall they dieH4191, and the peopleH5971 shall be troubledH1607 at midnightH3915H2676, and pass awayH5674: and the mightyH47 shall be taken awayH5493 without handH3027.2

21For his eyesH5869 are upon the waysH1870 of manH376, and he seethH7200 all his goingsH6806.

22There is no darknessH2822, nor shadow of deathH6757, where the workersH6466 of iniquityH205 may hideH5641 themselves.
