Job 36:16
Verse 16 of 33. The 36th of 42 chapters in Job, in Poetry and Wisdom.
12But if they don’t listen, they will perish by the sword; they will die without knowledge.
13“But those who are godless in heart lay up anger. They don’t cry for help when he binds them.
14They die in youth. Their life perishes among the unclean.
15He delivers the afflicted by their affliction, and opens their ear in oppression.
16Yes, he would have allured you out of distress, into a wide place, where there is no restriction. That which is set on your table would be full of fatness.
17“But you are full of the judgment of the wicked. Judgment and justice take hold of you.
18Don’t let riches entice you to wrath, neither let the great size of a bribe turn you aside.
19Would your wealth sustain you in distress, or all the might of your strength?
20Don’t desire the night, when people are cut off in their place.
