1	Job continued his answer:

2	"God All-Powerful has been unfair to me; he has made my life bitter. But I swear by his life,

3	as long as I have life in me, as long as breath from God is in my nostrils,

4	I will not be a hypocrite. I will not lie.

5	You will never hear me say you men are right! Until the day I die I will not be untrue to myself.

6	I will hold on to my innocence and never let go! My conscience will always be clear!

7	May my enemies be punished like those who are evil. May those who stood against me end up like all who have done wrong.

8	What hope do people without God have when it is time to die, when God takes their life away?

9	When they have troubles and cry out for help, God will not listen to them!

10	It will be too late for them to enjoy talking with God All-Powerful. They should have prayed to God all the time.

11	"I will teach you about God's power. I will not hide anything about God All-Powerful.

12	But you have seen it all with your own eyes. So why do you say such useless things?

13	"Here is what God has planned for those who are evil. This is what cruel people will get from God All-Powerful.

14	They may have many children, but all of them will be killed in war. Or their children will not have enough to eat.

15	All those who are left will die, and the widows will not even cry for them.

16	Evil people collect silver as easily as dirt. They may have so many clothes that they are like piles of clay.

17	But their piles of clothes will be worn by those who have lived right. All that silver will be given to those who have done no wrong.

18	Evil people might build houses, but they will not last long. They will be like a spider's web or a guard's tent.

19	They might be rich when they go to bed, but when they open their eyes, all their riches will be gone.

20	Terrible fears will come over them like a flood, like a storm in the night that blows everything away.

21	The east wind will carry them away, and they will be gone. The storm will sweep them out of their homes.

22	They may try to run away from the power of the storm, but it will come down on them without mercy.

23	It will sound like it is clapping its hands as they run away. It will whistle at them as they run from their homes."
