Job 22:15-18
Job 22:15-18 The Message (MSG)
“Are you going to persist in that tired old line that wicked men and women have always used? Where did it get them? They died young, flash floods sweeping them off to their doom. They told God, ‘Get lost! What good is God Almighty to us?’ And yet it was God who gave them everything they had. It’s beyond me how they can carry on like this!
Job 22:15-18 New International Version (NIV)
Will you keep to the old path that the wicked have trod? They were carried off before their time, their foundations washed away by a flood. They said to God, ‘Leave us alone! What can the Almighty do to us?’ Yet it was he who filled their houses with good things, so I stand aloof from the plans of the wicked.
Job 22:15-18 King James Version (KJV)
Hast thou marked the old way Which wicked men have trodden? Which were cut down out of time, Whose foundation was overflown with a flood: Which said unto God, Depart from us: And what can the Almighty do for them? Yet he filled their houses with good things: But the counsel of the wicked is far from me.
Job 22:15-18 New American Standard Bible - NASB 1995 (NASB1995)

They said to God, ‘Depart from us!’ And ‘What can the Almighty do to them?’ Yet He filled their houses with good things; But the counsel of the wicked is far from me.
Job 22:15-18 New Century Version (NCV)
Are you going to stay on the old path where evil people walk? They were carried away before their time was up, and their foundations were washed away by a flood. They said to God, ‘Leave us alone! The Almighty can do nothing to us.’ But it was God who filled their houses with good things. Their way of thinking is different from mine.
Job 22:15-18 American Standard Version (ASV)
Wilt thou keep the old way Which wicked men have trodden?
