21If his sons are honored, he does not know it; if they are brought low, he does not see it.


In Context

18 "But as a mountain erodes and crumbles and as a rock is moved from its place,

19 as water wears away stones and torrents wash away the soil, so you destroy man's hope.

20 You overpower him once for all, and he is gone; you change his countenance and send him away.

21 If his sons are honored, he does not know it; if they are brought low, he does not see it.

22 He feels but the pain of his own body and mourns only for himself."
