  • Job 18:5-9 : 5 Indeed, the light of the wicked will be extinguished, and the flame of his fire will not shine. 6 The light in his tent will grow dark, and the lamp above him will be extinguished. 7 His vigorous steps will be restricted, and his own counsel will cast him down. 8 For his feet are cast into a net, and he wanders into its mesh. 9 A trap seizes him by the heel; a snare holds him tight. 10 His rope lies hidden in the ground, and his trap is set along the path. 11 Terrors frighten him on every side and chase him at his heels. 12 Hunger consumes his strength, and calamity is ready at his side. 13 It devours parts of his skin; death's firstborn consumes his limbs. 14 He is uprooted from the security of his tent and marched off to the king of terrors. 15 What does not belong to him will dwell in his tent; burning sulfur will be scattered over his dwelling. 16 His roots below will dry up, and his branches above will wither. 17 His memory perishes from the earth, and he has no name in the public square. 18 He is driven from light into darkness and chased out of the world. 19 He has no offspring or posterity among his people, nor any survivor where he once lived. 20 Those who come after are appalled at his fate, and those before are seized with horror. 21 Surely these are the dwellings of the wicked, and this is the place of one who does not know God.
  • Job 21:27-34 : 27 Behold, I know your thoughts and the schemes you plot against me. 28 For you say, 'Where is the house of the noble? Where is the tent of the dwellings of the wicked? 29 Have you not asked those who travel the road, and did you not recognize their testimonies? 30 That the wicked are spared in the day of calamity, that they are brought forth in the day of wrath? 31 Who will confront him with his conduct? Who repays him for what he has done? 32 He is carried to the graves, and a watch is kept over his tomb. 33 The clods of the valley are sweet to him; everyone follows after him, and countless go before him. 34 So how can you comfort me with empty words, since your answers remain falsehoods?
  • Job 22:6-9 : 6 For you have taken pledges from your brothers without cause, and stripped the naked of their clothing. 7 You have not given water to the weary to drink, and you have withheld bread from the hungry. 8 But the powerful man owns the land, and the honored man dwells in it. 9 You sent widows away empty-handed, and the arms of the fatherless were crushed. 10 That is why snares are all around you, and sudden terror overwhelms you. 11 It is so dark you cannot see, and a flood of waters covers you. 12 Is not God in the height of heaven? Look at the distant stars; how high they are! 13 But you say, 'What does God know? Can He judge through such thick darkness?' 14 Clouds cover Him so He cannot see as He walks on the circle of the heavens. 15 Will you keep to the ancient path that wicked men have walked? 16 They were snatched away before their time, and their foundation was swept away by a flood. 17 They said to God, 'Depart from us! What can the Almighty do to us?' 18 Yet it was He who filled their houses with good things, though the counsel of the wicked is far from me. 19 The righteous see it and are glad; the innocent mock them. 20 Surely our enemies are destroyed, and fire has consumed their wealth. 21 Be reconciled with God now, and at peace with Him; this will bring good to you. 22 Accept instruction from His mouth and place His words in your heart. 23 If you return to the Almighty, you will be restored. If you remove injustice far from your tent, 24 and assign your gold to the dust, and the gold of Ophir to the rocks in the ravines, 25 then the Almighty will be your gold and your precious silver. 26 For then you will take delight in the Almighty and lift up your face to God. 27 You will pray to Him, and He will hear you, and you will fulfill your vows. 28 Whatever you decide will succeed, and light will shine on your ways. 29 When people are humbled and you say, 'Lift them up,' God will save the downcast. 30 He will even deliver one who is not innocent, who will be delivered through the cleanness of your hands.

  • Job 5:1-5 : 1 Call now—will anyone answer you?
