Job 20:10-29

10His children will seek the favor of the poor,
and his hands will agive back his wealth.
11His bones are full of his byouthful vigor,
but it will lie cdown with him in the dust.
12 Though evil is sweet in his mouth,
though he hides it dunder his tongue,
13though he is loath to let it go
and holds it in his mouth,
14yet his food is turned in his stomach;
it is the venom of ecobras within him.
15He swallows down riches and vomits them up again;
God casts them out of his belly.
16He will suck the poison of cobras;
fthe tongue of a viper will kill him.
17He will not look upon gthe rivers,
the streams flowing with hhoney and icurds.
18He will jgive back the fruit of his toil
and will not kswallow it down;
from the profit of his trading
he will get no enjoyment.
19For he has crushed and abandoned the poor;
he has seized a house that he did not build.
20 Because he lknew no mcontentment in his belly,
nhe will not let anything in which he delights escape him.
21There was nothing left after he had eaten;
therefore his prosperity will not endure.
22In the fullness of his sufficiency he will be in distress;
the hand of everyone in misery will come against him.
23To fill his belly to the full,
God
Hebrew he
will send his burning anger against him
and rain it upon him pinto his body.
24 qHe will flee from an iron weapon;
ra bronze arrow will strike shim through.
25It tis drawn forth and comes out of his body;
uthe glittering point comes out of his vgallbladder;
wterrors come upon him.
26Utter darkness is laid up for his treasures;
xa fire not fanned will devour him;
what is left in his tent will be consumed.
27 yThe heavens will reveal his iniquity,
and the earth will rise up against him.
28The possessions of his house will be carried away,
dragged off in the day of God’s
Hebrew his
wrath.
29 aaThis is the wicked man’s portion from God,
abthe heritage decreed for him by God.”
