8 But the mighty man possessed the land, And the honorable man dwelt in it.

9 You have sent widows away empty, And the strength of the fatherless was crushed.

10 Therefore snares are all around you, And sudden fear troubles you,

11 Or darkness so that you cannot see; And an abundance of water covers you.

12 "Is not God in the height of heaven? And see the highest stars, how lofty they are!

13 And you say, 'What does God know? Can He judge through the deep darkness?

14 Thick clouds cover Him, so that He cannot see, And He walks above the circle of heaven.'

15 Will you keep to the old way Which wicked men have trod,

16 Who were cut down before their time, Whose foundations were swept away by a flood?

17 They said to God, 'Depart from us! What can the Almighty do to them?'

18 Yet He filled their houses with good things; But the counsel of the wicked is far from me.

Job 22:8 Mas la tierra es del poderoso, y el privilegiado mora en ella.

8 The man with power possessed the land, and the favored man lived in it.

8 Pero el hombre pudiente tuvo la tierra; y habitó en ella el honrado

8 But as for the mighty man, he had the earth; and the honourable man dwelt in it.

Job 22:8 Probablemente pienses que la tierra le pertenece a los poderosos,
¡y que solo los privilegiados tienen derecho a ella!

8 Hombre de poder, te adueñaste de la tierra;hombre prominente, en ella te asentaste.

8 Empero el hombre pudiente tuvo la tierra; Y habitó en ella el distinguido.

8 Pero el hombre pudiente tuvo la tierra; y habitó en ella el honrado.
