"Although you were a powerful man, owning land, an honored man living on it,"
— Job 22:8, NET Bible
“But as for the mighty man, he had the earth; and the honourable man dwelt in it.”
“But as for the mighty man, he had the earth; And the honorable man, he dwelt in it. ”
“But as for the mighty man, he had the earth. The honorable man, he lived in it.”
“In the strength of thy arm thou didst possess the land, and being the most mighty thou holdest it.”
“For it was the man with power who had the land, and the man with an honoured name who was living in it.”
“But as for the mighty man, he had the earth; and the honourable man dwelt in it.”
Is not your wickedness great and is there no end to your iniquity?
“For you took pledges from your brothers for no reason, and you stripped the clothing from the naked.
You gave the weary no water to drink and from the hungry you withheld food.
Although you were a powerful man, owning land, an honored man living on it,
you sent widows away empty-handed, and the arms of the orphans you crushed.
That is why snares surround you, and why sudden fear terrifies you,
why it is so dark you cannot see, and why a flood of water covers you.
