Job 34:28-30

New International Reader's Version

²⁸ They caused poor people to cry out to him.
    He heard the cries of those who were in need.
²⁹ But if he remains silent, who can judge him?
    If he turns his face away, who can see him?
He rules over individual people and nations alike.
³⁰     He keeps those who are ungodly from ruling.
    He keeps them from laying traps for others.
