Bible verse
while the land belonged to a mighty man, and a man of honor lived on it.
Job 22:8 · BSB
The verses around it, from Job 22.
4 Is it for your reverence that He rebukes you and enters into judgment against you?
5 Is not your wickedness great? Are not your iniquities endless?
6 For you needlessly demanded security from your brothers and deprived the naked of their clothing.
7 You gave no water to the weary and withheld food from the famished,
8 while the land belonged to a mighty man, and a man of honor lived on it.
9 You sent widows away empty-handed, and the strength of the fatherless was crushed.
10 Therefore snares surround you, and sudden peril terrifies you;
11 it is so dark you cannot see, and a flood of water covers you.
12 Is not God as high as the heavens? Look at the highest stars, how lofty they are!
KJV
But [as for] the mighty man, he had the earth; and the honourable man dwelt in it.
ASV
But as for the mighty man, he had the earth; And the honorable man, he dwelt in it.
ERV
But as for the mighty man, he had the earth; and the honourable man, he dwelt in it.
