Job 21:18

Job's Seventh Speech: A Response To Zophar

¹⁷ How oft, the lamp of the lawless, goeth out, and their calamity, cometh upon them, Sorrows, apportioneth he in his anger; ¹⁸ They become as straw before the wind, and as chaff, which the storm stealeth away. ¹⁹ Shall, GOD, reserve, for his children, his sorrow? Let him recompense him so that he may know it;
