Job 21,8

JusticeParents and children

6 Når jeg tenker på det, blir jeg forstyrret;
skrekk griper mitt kjød.

7 Hvorfor fortsetter de onde å leve,
bli gamle og øke i makt?

Deres barn trives rundt dem,
deres etterkommere er foran deres øyne.

9 Deres hjem er trygge og fri for frykt;
Guds ris er ikke over dem.

10 Deres okser avler vellykket;
deres kyr kalver og mister ikke sine unge.
