Job 34:21

God's power and sovereignty

19 who is not partial to princes and does not favor rich over poor? For they are all the work of His hands.

20 They die in an instant, in the middle of the night. The people convulse and pass away; the mighty are removed without human hand.

For His eyes are on the ways of a man, and He sees his every step.

22 There is no darkness or deep shadow where the workers of iniquity can hide.

23 For God need not examine a man further or have him approach for judgment.
