Job 36:20 in Context — Job 36

18 Por causa da furor, [guarda-te] para que não sejas seduzido pela riqueza, nem que um grande suborno te faça desviar.

19 Pode, por acaso, a tua riqueza te sustentar para que não tenhas aflição, mesmo com todos os esforços de [teu] poder?

20 Não anseies pela noite, em que os povos são tomados de seu lugar.

21 Guarda-te, e não te voltes para a maldade; pois por isto que tens sido testado com miséria.

22 Eis que Deus é exaltado em seu poder; que instrutor há como ele?
