Job 18:13-14
Job 18:13-14 New Living Translation (NLT)
Disease eats their skin; death devours their limbs. They are torn from the security of their homes and are brought down to the king of terrors.
Job 18:5-21 The Message (MSG)
“Here’s the rule: The light of the wicked is put out. Their flame dies down and is extinguished. Their house goes dark— every lamp in the place goes out. Their strong strides weaken, falter; they stumble into their own traps. They get all tangled up in their own red tape, Their feet are grabbed and caught, their necks in a noose. They trip on ropes they’ve hidden, and fall into pits they’ve dug themselves. Terrors come at them from all sides. They run dazed and confused. The hungry grave is ready to gobble them up for supper, To lay them out for a gourmet meal, a treat for ravenous Death. They are snatched from their home sweet home and marched straight to the death house. Their lives go up in smoke; acid rain soaks their ruins. Their roots rot and their branches wither. They’ll never again be remembered— nameless in unmarked graves. They are plunged from light into darkness, banished from the world. And they leave empty-handed—not one single child— nothing to show for their life on this earth. Westerners are aghast at their fate, easterners are horrified: ‘Oh no! So this is what happens to perverse people. This is how the God-ignorant end up!’”
Job 18:13-14 King James Version (KJV)
It shall devour the strength of his skin: Even the firstborn of death shall devour his strength. His confidence shall be rooted out of his tabernacle, And it shall bring him to the king of terrors.
Job 18:13-14 New American Standard Bible - NASB 1995 (NASB1995)
His skin is devoured by disease, The firstborn of death devours his limbs. He is torn from the security of his tent, And they march him before the king of terrors.
Job 18:13-14 New Century Version (NCV)
Disease eats away parts of their skin; death gnaws at their arms and legs. They are torn from the safety of their tents and dragged off to Death, the King of Terrors.
Job 18:13-14 American Standard Version (ASV)
The members of his body shall be devoured, Yea, the first-born of death shall devour his members. He shall be rooted out of his tent wherein he trusteth; And he shall be brought to the king of terrors.
