  • Job 5:3-5 : 3 I have seen the foolish taking root: but suddenly I cursed his dwelling place. 4 His children are far from safety, and they are crushed in the gate, and there is none to deliver them. 5 Whose harvest the hungry devour, and take it even out of the thorns, and the thief swallows up their substance.
  • Job 8:3-6 : 3 Does God pervert judgment, or does the Almighty pervert justice? 4 If your children have sinned against Him, and He has cast them away for their transgression; 5 If you would seek God earnestly, and make your supplication to the Almighty; 6 If you were pure and upright, surely now He would awaken for you, and make the dwelling of your righteousness prosperous.
  • Job 15:20-35 : 20 The wicked man writhes in pain all his days, and the number of years is hidden from the oppressor. 21 A dreadful sound is in his ears; in prosperity the destroyer shall come upon him. 22 He does not believe that he shall return out of darkness, and he is marked for the sword. 23 He wanders abroad for bread, saying, 'Where is it?' He knows that the day of darkness is ready at his hand. 24 Trouble and anguish make him afraid; they prevail against him, as a king ready for battle. 25 For he stretches out his hand against God, and strengthens himself against the Almighty. 26 He runs upon Him, even on his neck, upon the thick bosses of his shields. 27 Because he covers his face with his fatness, and makes collops of fat on his flanks. 28 And he dwells in desolate cities, and in houses which no one inhabits, which are ready to become heaps. 29 He shall not be rich, nor shall his wealth continue, nor shall he prolong the perfection of it upon the earth. 30 He shall not depart out of darkness; the flame shall dry up his branches, and by the breath of his mouth he shall go away. 31 Let not him who is deceived trust in vanity, for emptiness shall be his recompense. 32 It shall be accomplished before his time, and his branch shall not be green. 33 He shall shake off his unripe grape as the vine, and cast off his flower as the olive. 34 For the congregation of hypocrites shall be desolate, and fire shall consume the tents of bribery. 35 They conceive mischief, and bring forth vanity, and their belly prepares deceit.
