Job 15:12-23
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 15
12
Why does your heart take you away?
And why do your eyes wink,
13
That you can turn your spirit against God
And produce
such
words from your mouth?
14
What is man, that he would be pure,
Or he who is born of a woman, that he would be righteous?
15
Behold, He has no trust in His holy ones,
And the heavens are not pure in His sight;
16
How much less one who is detestable and corrupt:
A person who drinks malice like water!
17
'I will tell you, listen to me;
And what I have seen I will also declare;
18
What wise people have told,
And have not concealed from their fathers,
19
To whom alone the land was given,
And no stranger passed among them.
20
The wicked person writhes in pain all
his
days,
And the years reserved for the ruthless are numbered.
21
Sounds of terror are in his ears;
While he is
at peace the destroyer comes upon him.
22
He does not believe that he will return from darkness,
And he is destined for the sword.
23
He wanders about for food,
saying,
‘Where
is it?
’
He knows that a day of darkness is at hand.
King James Version
Chapter 15
12
Why doth thine heart carry thee away? and what do thy eyes wink at,
13
That thou turnest thy spirit against God, and lettest such words go out of thy mouth?
14
What is man, that he should be clean? and he which is born of a woman, that he should be righteous?
15
Behold, he putteth no trust in his saints; yea, the heavens are not clean in his sight.
16
How much more abominable and filthy is man, which drinketh iniquity like water?
17
I will shew thee, hear me; and that which I have seen I will declare;
18
Which wise men have told from their fathers, and have not hid it:
19
Unto whom alone the earth was given, and no stranger passed among them.
20
The wicked man travaileth with pain all his days, and the number of years is hidden to the oppressor.
21
A dreadful sound is in his ears: in prosperity the destroyer shall come upon him.
22
He believeth not that he shall return out of darkness, and he is waited for of the sword.
23
He wandereth abroad for bread, saying, Where is it? he knoweth that the day of darkness is ready at his hand.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 15
12
Why has your heart misled you,
and why do your eyes flash
13
as you turn your anger against God
and allow such words to leave your mouth?
14
What is a mere human, that he should be pure,
or one born of a woman, that he should be righteous?
15
If God puts no trust in his holy ones
and the heavens are not pure in his sight,
16
how much less one who is revolting and corrupt,
who drinks injustice like water?
17
Listen to me and I will inform you.
I will describe what I have seen,
18
what the wise have declared and not concealed,
that came from their ancestors,
19
to whom alone the land was given
when no foreigner passed among them.
20
A wicked person writhes in pain all his days,
throughout the number of years reserved for the ruthless.
21
Dreadful sounds fill his ears;
when he is at peace, a robber attacks him.
22
He doesn’t believe he will return from darkness;
he is destined for the sword.
23
He wanders about for food, asking, "Where is it?"
He knows the day of darkness is at hand.
New Living Translation
Chapter 15
12
What has taken away your reason?
What has weakened your vision,
13
that you turn against God
and say all these evil things?
14
Can any mortal be pure?
Can anyone born of a woman be just?
15
Look, God does not even trust the angels.
Even the heavens are not absolutely pure in his sight.
16
How much less pure is a corrupt and sinful person
with a thirst for wickedness!
17
'If you will listen, I will show you.
I will answer you from my own experience.
18
And it is confirmed by the reports of wise men
who have heard the same thing from their fathers —
19
from those to whom the land was given
long before any foreigners arrived.
20
'The wicked writhe in pain throughout their lives.
Years of trouble are stored up for the ruthless.
21
The sound of terror rings in their ears,
and even on good days they fear the attack of the destroyer.
22
They dare not go out into the darkness
for fear they will be murdered.
23
They wander around, saying, ‘Where can I find bread?’
They know their day of destruction is near.

Chapter 15
12
Why does your heart carry you away,
and why do your eyes flash,
13
that you turn your spirit against God
and bring such words out of your mouth?
14
What is man, that he can be pure?
Or he who is born of a woman, that he can be righteous?
15
Behold, God puts no trust in his holy ones,
and the heavens are not pure in his sight;
16
how much less one who is abominable and corrupt,
a man who drinks injustice like water!
17
"I will show you; hear me,
and what I have seen I will declare
18
(what wise men have told,
without hiding it from their fathers,
19
to whom alone the land was given,
and no stranger passed among them).
20
The wicked man writhes in pain all his days,
through all the years that are laid up for the ruthless.
21
Dreadful sounds are in his ears;
in prosperity the destroyer will come upon him.
22
He does not believe that he will return out of darkness,
and he is marked for the sword.
23
He wanders abroad for bread, saying, ‘Where is it?’
He knows that a day of darkness is ready at his hand;
New International Version
Chapter 15
12
Why has your heart carried you away,
and why do your eyes flash,
13
so that you vent your rage against God
and pour out such words from your mouth?
14
"What are mortals, that they could be pure,
or those born of woman, that they could be righteous?
15
If God places no trust in his holy ones,
if even the heavens are not pure in his eyes,
16
how much less mortals, who are vile and corrupt,
who drink up evil like water!
17
"Listen to me and I will explain to you;
let me tell you what I have seen,
18
what the wise have declared,
hiding nothing received from their ancestors
19
(to whom alone the land was given
when no foreigners moved among them):
20
All his days the wicked man suffers torment,
the ruthless man through all the years stored up for him.
21
Terrifying sounds fill his ears;
when all seems well, marauders attack him.
22
He despairs of escaping the realm of darkness;
he is marked for the sword.
23
He wanders about for food like a vulture;
he knows the day of darkness is at hand.
New King James Version
Chapter 15
12
Why does your heart carry you away,
And what do your eyes wink at,
13
That you turn your spirit against God,
And let
such
words go out of your mouth?
14
“What
is
man, that he could be pure?
And
he who is
born of a woman, that he could be righteous?
15
If
God
puts no trust in His saints,
And the heavens are not pure in His sight,
16
How much less man,
who is
abominable and filthy,
Who drinks iniquity like water!
17
“I will tell you, hear me;
What I have seen I will declare,
18
What wise men have told,
Not hiding
anything received
from their fathers,

The wicked man writhes with pain all
his
days,
And the number of years is hidden from the oppressor.

Dreadful sounds
are
in his ears;
In prosperity the destroyer comes upon him.

He does not believe that he will return from darkness,
For a sword is waiting for him.

He wanders about for bread,
saying,
‘Where
is it?
’
He knows that a day of darkness is ready at his hand.
