Job 4:8-11
Even as I have seen, those who plow iniquity and those who sow trouble reap the same.By the breath of God they perish, and by the blast of his anger they are consumed.There is the roaring of the lion and the growling of the young lion, but the teeth of the young lions are broken.The mighty lion perishes for lack of prey, and the cubs of the lioness are scattered.

Job 15:20-35
All his days the wicked man suffers torment, throughout the number of the years that are stored up for the tyrant.Terrifying sounds fill his ears; in a time of peace marauders attack him.He does not expect to escape from darkness; he is marked for the sword;he wanders about– food for vultures; he knows that the day of darkness is at hand.Distress and anguish terrify him; they prevail against him like a king ready to launch an attack,for he stretches out his hand against God, and vaunts himself against the Almighty,defiantly charging against him with a thick, strong shield!Because he covered his face with fat, and made his hips bulge with fat,he lived in ruined towns and in houses where no one lives, where they are ready to crumble into heaps.He will not grow rich, and his wealth will not endure, nor will his possessions spread over the land.He will not escape the darkness; a flame will wither his shoots and he will depart by the breath of God’s mouth.Let him not trust in what is worthless, deceiving himself; for worthlessness will be his reward.Before his time he will be paid in full, and his branches will not flourish.Like a vine he will let his sour grapes fall, and like an olive tree he will shed his blossoms.For the company of the godless is barren, and fire consumes the tents of those who accept bribes.They conceive trouble and bring forth evil; their belly prepares deception.”

Job 5:3-5
I myself have seen the fool taking root, but suddenly I cursed his place of residence.His children are far from safety, and they are crushed at the place where judgment is rendered, nor is there anyone to deliver them.The hungry eat up his harvest, and take it even from behind the thorns, and the thirsty swallow up their fortune.

Does God pervert justice? Or does the Almighty pervert what is right?If your children sinned against him, he gave them over to the penalty of their sin.But if you will look to God, and make your supplication to the Almighty,if you become pure and upright, even now he will rouse himself for you, and will restore your righteous abode.
