Job 34:20 in Context — Job 34

18 ¿Hase de decir al rey: Perverso; y á los príncipes: Impíos?

19 ¿[Cuánto menos á] aquel que no hace acepción de personas de príncipes, ni el rico es de él más respetado que el pobre? porque todos son obras de sus manos.

20 En un momento morirán, y á media noche se alborotarán los pueblos, y pasarán, y sin mano será quitado el poderoso.

21 Porque sus ojos están sobre los caminos del hombre, y ve todos sus pasos.

22 No hay tinieblas ni sombra de muerte donde se encubran los que obran maldad.
