New King James Version (NKJV)
Job 15
16 How much less man, who is abominable and filthy, Who drinks iniquity like water!
17 "I will tell you, hear me; What I have seen I will declare,
18 What wise men have told, Not hiding anything received from their fathers,
19 To whom alone the land was given, And no alien passed among them:
20 The wicked man writhes with pain all his days, And the number of years is hidden from the oppressor.
21 Dreadful sounds are in his ears; In prosperity the destroyer comes upon him.
22 He does not believe that he will return from darkness, For a sword is waiting for him.
23 He wanders about for bread, saying, ’Where is it?’ He knows that a day of darkness is ready at his hand.
24 Trouble and anguish make him afraid; They overpower him, like a king ready for battle.
25 For he stretches out his hand against God, And acts defiantly against the Almighty,
26 Running stubbornly against Him With his strong, embossed shield.
