Job 24Job Complains of Violence on the Earth

1

and why do those who know him never see his days?

2 remove landmarks;

they seize flocks and pasture them.

3 they press out oil;

they tread the winepresses but suffer thirst.

12 the childless woman

and do no good to the widow.

22 prolongs the life of the mighty by his power;

they rise up when they despair of life.

23

they are cut off like the heads of grain.

25If it is not so, who will prove me a liar

and show that there is nothing in what I say?”
