Job 21:22

³⁴“For who has known the mind of the Lord? Or who has been his counselor?”

¹⁶“For who has known the mind of the Lord that he should instruct him?”But we have Christ’s mind.

¹³Who has directed the LORD’s Spirit, or has taught him as his counselor? ¹⁴Who did he take counsel with, and who instructed him, and taught him in the path of justice, and taught him knowledge, and showed him the way of understanding?

⁶Angels who didn’t keep their first domain, but deserted their own dwelling place, he has kept in everlasting bonds under darkness for the judgment of the great day.

¹¹who teaches us more than the animals of the earth, and makes us wiser than the birds of the sky?’

⁴For if God didn’t spare angels when they sinned, but cast them down to Tartarus,^[+] and committed them to pits of darkness to be reserved for judgment;

⁵Who is like the LORD, our God, who has his seat on high, ⁶who stoops down to see in heaven and in the earth?

¹God presides in the great assembly. He judges among the gods.

⁸If you see the oppression of the poor, and the violent taking away of justice and righteousness in a district, don’t marvel at the matter, for one official is eyed by a higher one, and there are officials over them.

¹²I saw the dead, the great and the small, standing before the throne, and they opened books. Another book was opened, which is the book of life. The dead were judged out of the things which were written in the books, according to their works. ¹³The sea gave up the dead who were in it. Death and Hades^[+] gave up the dead who were in them. They were judged, each one according to his works. ¹⁴Death and Hades^[+] were thrown into the lake of fire. This is the second death, the lake of fire. ¹⁵If anyone was not found written in the book of life, he was cast into the lake of fire.
