2 -“How long will you go on saying such things? The words of your mouth are a blustering wind.
3 -Does God pervert justice? Does the Almighty pervert what is right?
4 -When your children sinned against Him, He gave them over to their rebellion.
5 -But if you would earnestly seek God and ask the Almighty for mercy,
6 -if you are pure and upright, even now He will rouse Himself on your behalf and restore your righteous estate.
7 -Though your beginnings were modest, your latter days will flourish.
8 -Please inquire of past generations and consider the discoveries of their fathers.
9 -For we were born yesterday and know nothing; our days on earth are but a shadow.
10 -Will they not teach you and tell you, and speak from their understanding?
11 -Does papyrus grow where there is no marsh? Do reeds flourish without water?
12 -While the shoots are still uncut, they dry up quicker than grass.
13 -Such is the destiny of all who forget God; so the hope of the godless will perish.
14 -His confidence is fragile; his security is in a spider’s web.
15 -He leans on his web, but it gives way; he holds fast, but it does not endure.
16 -He is a well-watered plant in the sunshine, spreading its shoots over the garden.
17 -His roots wrap around the rock heap; he looks for a home among the stones.
18 -If he is uprooted from his place, it will disown him, saying, ‘I never saw you.’
19 -Surely this is the joy of his way; yet others will spring from the dust.
20 -Behold, God does not reject the blameless, nor will He strengthen the hand of evildoers.
21 -He will yet fill your mouth with laughter, and your lips with a shout of joy.
22 -Your enemies will be clothed in shame, and the tent of the wicked will be no more.”
(Berean Standard Bible)
