Read in context

Job 34:21–25 · Berean Standard Bible

21 For His eyes are on the ways of a man, and He sees his every step.

22 There is no darkness or deep shadow where the workers of iniquity can hide.

23 For God need not examine a man further or have him approach for judgment.

24 He shatters the mighty without inquiry and sets up others in their place.

25 Therefore, He recognizes their deeds; He overthrows them in the night and they are crushed.
