Previous Chapter Previous Verse Full Chapter Next Verse Next Chapter
20 Though I am righteous, my own mouth shall condemn me. Though I am blameless, it shall prove me perverse.
21 I am blameless. I don`t regard myself. I despise my life.
22 "It is all the same. Therefore I say, He destroys the blameless and the wicked.
23 If the scourge kills suddenly, He will mock at the trial of the innocent.
24 The earth is given into the hand of the wicked. He covers the faces of the judges of it. If not he, then who is it?
25 "Now my days are swifter than a runner. They flee away, they see no good,
26 They have passed away as the swift ships, As the eagle that swoops on the prey.
