Job 15:20-25


20
The wicked man writhes ain pain all his days,
And 1numbered are the years bstored up for the ruthless.

21
1Sounds of adread are in his ears;
bWhile at peace the destroyer comes upon him.

22
He does not believe that he will areturn from darkness,
And he is destined for bthe sword.

23
He wanders about for food, saying, ‘Where is it?’
He knows that a day of adarkness is ready at his hand.

24
Distress and anguish terrify him;
They overpower him like a king ready for the attack,

25
Because he has stretched out his hand against God
And amagnifies himself against 1the Almighty.

Job 15:31-34


31
Let him not abelieve in emptiness, deceiving himself;
For emptiness will be his 1reward,

32
When ahis days are not yet fulfilled,
And his palm bbranch is not green.

33
He will drop off his unripe grape like the vine,
And will acast off his flower like the olive tree.

34
For the company of athe godless is barren,
And fire consumes bthe tents of 1the corrupt.
