Job 21:17-19
New Living Translation
Job 21:17-19
New Living Translation
17 “Yet the light of the wicked never seems to be extinguished.
Do they ever have trouble?
Does God distribute sorrows to them in anger?
18 Are they driven before the wind like straw?
Are they carried away by the storm like chaff?
Not at all!
19 “‘Well,’ you say, ‘at least God will punish their children!’
But I say he should punish the ones who sin,
so that they understand his judgment.

like chaff(D) swept away(E) by a gale?(F)

Let him repay the wicked, so that they themselves will experience it!(H)
