Job 34:14
Verse 14 of 37. The 34th of 42 chapters in Job, in Poetry and Wisdom.
10“Therefore listen to me, you men of understanding: far be it from God, that he should do wickedness, from the Almighty, that he should commit iniquity.
11For the work of a man he will give to him, and cause every man to find according to his ways.
12Yes surely, God will not do wickedly, neither will the Almighty pervert justice.
13Who put him in charge of the earth? Or who has appointed him over the whole world?
14If he set his heart on himself, if he gathered to himself his spirit and his breath,
15all flesh would perish together, and man would turn again to dust.
16“If now you have understanding, hear this. Listen to the voice of my words.
17Should even one who hates justice govern? Will you condemn him who is righteous and mighty,
18who says to a king, ‘Vile!’ or to nobles, ‘Wicked!’?
