Job 34:18 in Context — Job 34

16 Si tu as de l’intelligence, écoute ceci, Prête l’oreille au son de mes paroles!

17 Un ennemi de la justice régnerait-il? Et condamneras-tu le juste, le puissant,

18 Qui proclame la méchanceté des rois Et l’iniquité des princes,

19 Qui n’a point égard à l’apparence des grands Et ne distingue pas le riche du pauvre, Parce que tous sont l’ouvrage de ses mains?

20 En un instant, ils perdent la vie; Au milieu de la nuit, un peuple chancelle et périt; Le puissant disparaît, sans la main d’aucun homme.
