Job 21 · Grade 4

The Wicked Often Prosper

Name Date

Read and Think

Job asked his friends to listen diligently, since that would be a real comfort. After he had spoken, they could mock on. He said his complaint was not to man.

Job pointed out what anyone could see. The wicked often live long and grow mighty. Their houses are safe, their herds increase, and their children dance to the tambourine and harp. They tell God, Depart from us, for we don't want to know about your ways.

Job asked how often the lamp of the wicked is really put out. Shall any teach God knowledge, since he judges those who are high? One dies at ease and another in bitterness, and both lie down in the dust. Job told the friends their answers held only falsehood.

Job 21 · Grade 5

Answers That Remain Falsehood

Name Date

Read and Think

Job asks, Listen diligently to my speech. Let this be your consolation. Allow me, and I also will speak. After I have spoken, mock on. As for me, is my complaint to man? He says that when he remembers, horror takes hold of him. Job is about to challenge the friends' central claim.

Job asks, Why do the wicked live, become old, yes, and grow mighty in power? Their houses are safe from fear, neither is the rod of God upon them. Their children dance, and they spend their days in prosperity. They tell God, Depart from us, for we don't want to know about your ways. What is the Almighty, that we should serve him? Job is not praising them. He says, The counsel of the wicked is far from me.

Job questions the friends' claim that the lamp of the wicked is always put out. Shall any teach God knowledge, since he judges those who are high? One dies in his full strength, wholly at ease, while another dies in bitterness of soul. They lie down alike in the dust. Job concludes, So how can you comfort me with nonsense, because in your answers there remains only falsehood? Life does not always follow the friends' simple rule, and God alone judges rightly.
