Job 36:21

Verse 21 of 33. The 36th of 42 chapters in Job, in Poetry and Wisdom.

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.

21Take heed, don’t regard iniquity; for you have chosen this rather than affliction.

22Behold, God is exalted in his power. Who is a teacher like him?

23Who has prescribed his way for him? Or who can say, ‘You have committed unrighteousness’?

24“Remember that you magnify his work, about which men have sung.

25All men have looked on it. Man sees it afar off.
