Job 21:8 · BSB

Job 21:8 in context

The verses around it, from Job 21.

4 Is my complaint against a man? Then why should I not be impatient?

5 Look at me and be appalled; put your hand over your mouth.

6 When I remember, terror takes hold, and my body trembles in horror.

7 Why do the wicked live on, growing old and increasing in power?

8 Their descendants are established around them, and their offspring before their eyes.

9 Their homes are safe from fear; no rod of punishment from God is upon them.

10 Their bulls breed without fail; their cows bear calves and do not miscarry.

11 They send forth their little ones like a flock; their children skip about,

12 singing to the tambourine and lyre and making merry at the sound of the flute.
