Job 24:20-22
1599 Geneva Bible
20 [a]The pitiful man shall forget him: the worm shall feel his sweetness: he shall be no more remembered, and the wicked shall be broken like a tree.
21 He [b]doth evil entreat the barren that doth not bear, neither doeth he good to the widow.
22 He draweth also the [c]mighty by his power, and when he riseth up, none is sure of life.

20 The womb forgets them,
the worm(A) feasts on them;(B)
the wicked are no longer remembered(C)
but are broken like a tree.(D)
21 They prey on the barren and childless woman,
and to the widow they show no kindness.(E)
22 But God drags away the mighty by his power;(F)
though they become established,(G) they have no assurance of life.(H)
