Job 27:11-23


11
I will instruct you in the 1power of God;
What is with the Almighty I will not conceal.

12
Behold, all of you have seen it;
Why then do you speak with utter vanity?


13
“This is athe portion of a wicked man from God,
And the inheritance which the bruthless receive from the Almighty.

14
Though his sons are many, 1they are destined afor the sword;
And his boffspring will not be satisfied with bread.

15
His survivors will be buried because of the plague,
And 1their awidows will not be able to weep.

16
Though he piles up silver like dust
And prepares garments as plentiful as the clay,

17
He may prepare it, abut the righteous will wear it,
And the innocent will divide the silver.

18
He has built his ahouse like the 1moth,
Or as a hut which the watchman has made.

19
He lies down rich, but never 1again;
He opens his eyes, and ait is no longer.

20
aTerrors overtake him like many waters;
A tempest steals him away bin the night.

21
The east awind carries him away, and he goes,
And it whirls him baway from his place.

22
For it will hurl at him awithout sparing;
He will surely try to bflee from its 1power.

23
Men will clap their hands at him
And will ahiss him from his place.
