Job 24:23 in Context — Job 24

21 Aflige à mulher estéril, [que] não dá à luz; e nenhum bem faz à viúva.

22 Mas [Deus] arranca aos poderosos com seu poder; [quando] Deus se levanta, não há vida segura.

23 Se ele lhes dá descanso, nisso confiam; [mas] os olhos de [Deus] estão [postos] nos caminhos deles.

24 São exaltados por um pouco [de tempo] ,mas [logo] desaparecem; são abatidos, encerrados como todos, e cortados como cabeças das espigas.

25 Se não é assim, quem me desmentirá, ou anulará minhas palavras?
