Job 21:27-33 The Message (MSG)
“I’m not deceived. I know what you’re up to, the plans you’re cooking up to bring me down. Naively you claim that the castles of tyrants fall to pieces, that the achievements of the wicked collapse. Have you ever asked world travelers how they see it? Have you not listened to their stories Of evil men and women who got off scot-free, who never had to pay for their wickedness? Did anyone ever confront them with their crimes? Did they ever have to face the music? Not likely—they’re given fancy funerals with all the trimmings, Gently lowered into expensive graves, with everyone telling lies about how wonderful they were.
Job 21:32-33 King James Version (KJV)
Yet shall he be brought to the grave, And shall remain in the tomb. The clods of the valley shall be sweet unto him, And every man shall draw after him, As there are innumerable before him.
