Job 21:15
Verse 15 of 34. The 21st of 42 chapters in Job, in Poetry and Wisdom.
11They send out their little ones like a flock. Their children dance.
12They sing to the tambourine and harp, and rejoice at the sound of the pipe.
13They spend their days in prosperity. In an instant they go down to Sheol.
14They tell God, ‘Depart from us, for we don’t want to know about your ways.
15What is the Almighty, that we should serve him? What profit should we have, if we pray to him?’
16Behold, their prosperity is not in their hand. The counsel of the wicked is far from me.
17“How often is it that the lamp of the wicked is put out, that their calamity comes on them, that God distributes sorrows in his anger?
18How often is it that they are as stubble before the wind, as chaff that the storm carries away?
19You say, ‘God lays up his iniquity for his children.’ Let him recompense it to himself, that he may know it.
