Job 21:17-19

Evangelical Heritage Version

¹⁷ How often is the lamp of the wicked extinguished?
How often does the disaster they deserve come upon them?
How often does God in his anger dole out their fair share of pain?
¹⁸ How often are they like straw blown by the wind,
like chaff that a windstorm whisks away?

¹⁹ People say, “God stores up a man’s punishment for his children,”
but he should repay the man himself so that he experiences it!
