Job 22:8 in 6 English translations. Each links through to the full chapter for context.

New International Version (NIV)

8though you were a powerful man, owning land—

an honored man, living on it.

8“But the earth belongs to the powerful man,

And the one who is honorable dwells on it.

8But the earth belongs to the mighty man,

And the honorable man dwells in it.

8“But the land is possessed by the man with power,

And the favored and honorable man dwells in it.

8while the land belonged to a mighty man,

and a man of honor lived on it.

8You did it even though you were honored and powerful.

You owned land and lived on it.
