Job 24:23 in Context — Job 24

21 A la mujer estéril que no paría, afligió; y á la viuda nunca hizo bien.

22 Mas á los fuertes adelantó con su poder: levantóse, y no se da por segura la vida.

23 Le dieron á crédito, y se afirmó: sus ojos están sobre los caminos de ellos.

24 Fueron ensalzados por un poco, mas desaparecen, y son abatidos como cada cual: serán encerrados, y cortados como cabezas de espigas.

25 Y si no, ¿quién me desmentirá ahora, ó reducirá á nada mis palabras?
