Job 34:28-30

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

²⁸ so that they caused the cry of the poor to come to him,
    and he heard the cry of the afflicted—
²⁹ When he is quiet, who can condemn?
    When he hides his face, who can behold him,
    whether it be a nation or an individual?—
³⁰ so that the godless should not reign,
    or those who ensnare the people.
