Job 22:16-18

New International Reader's Version

¹⁶ They were carried off even before they died.
    Their foundations were washed away by a flood.
¹⁷ They said to God, ‘Leave us alone!
    What can you do to us, you Mighty One?’
¹⁸ But he was the one who filled their houses with good things.
    So I don’t pay any attention to the plans of evil people.
