Job 21:7-17

Wherefore do the wicked
<07563>
live
<02421> (8799)_,
become old
<06275> (8804)_,
yea, are mighty
<01396> (8804)
in power
<02428>_?
Their seed
<02233>
is established
<03559> (8737)
in their sight
<06440>
with them, and their offspring
<06631>
before their eyes
<05869>_.
Their houses
<01004>
[are] safe
<07965>
from fear
<06343>_,
neither [is] the rod
<07626>
of God
<0433>
upon them. {safe...: Heb. peace from}
Their bull
<07794>
gendereth
<05674> (8765)_,
and faileth
<01602> (8686)
not; their cow
<06510>
calveth
<06403> (8762)_,
and casteth not her calf
<07921> (8762)_.
They send forth
<07971> (8762)
their little ones
<05759>
like a flock
<06629>_,
and their children
<03206>
dance
<07540> (8762)_.
They take
<05375> (8799)
the timbrel
<08596>
and harp
<03658>_,
and rejoice
<08055> (8799)
at the sound
<06963>
of the organ
<05748>_.
They spend
<03615> (8762) (8675) <01086> (8762)
their days
<03117>
in wealth
<02896>_,
and in a moment
<07281>
go down
<02865> (8735) (8676) <05181> (8799)
to the grave
<07585>_.
{in wealth: or, in mirth}
Therefore they say
<0559> (8799)
unto God
<0410>_,
Depart
<05493> (8798)
from us; for we desire
<02654> (8804)
not the knowledge
<01847>
of thy ways
<01870>_.
What [is] the Almighty
<07706>_,
that we should serve
<05647> (8799)
him? and what profit
<03276> (8686)
should we have, if we pray
<06293> (8799)
unto him?
Lo, their good
<02898>
[is] not in their hand
<03027>_:
the counsel
<06098>
of the wicked
<07563>
is far
<07368> (8804)
from me.
How oft is the candle
<05216>
of the wicked
<07563>
put out
<01846> (8799)_!
and [how oft] cometh
<0935> (8799)
their destruction
<0343>
upon them! [God] distributeth
<02505> (8762)
sorrows
<02256>
in his anger
<0639>_.
{candle: or, lamp}
