That the wicked is reserved to the day of destruction? they shall be brought forth to the day of wrath.

Verse 30 is found in chapter 21 of Job. Job states that rich and poor alike end up in the dust and accuses his friends of presenting an explanation that does not correspond to reality. He also observes that wicked people may receive honor even after death. His argument again separates the general doctrine of divine justice from the expectation that every moral consequence must be immediately visible.

Denn der Böse wird erhalten am Tage des Verderbens, und am Tage des Grimms bleibt er.
Que el malo es reservado para el día de la destrucción? Presentados serán en el día de las iras.
Au jour du malheur, le méchant est épargné; Au jour de la colère, il échappe.
Che il malvagio è riparato al giorno della ruina, Quando le ire sono sparse.
Que o mau é preservado para o dia da destruição; e arrebatado no dia do furor?
就是惡人在患難的日子得存留, 在憤怒的日子得逃脫。
