Job:15:20-35
Seeker Overlay ON
*
The wicked man travaileth with pain all his days ,
and the number of years is hidden to the oppressor .
*
A dreadful sound is in his ears :
in prosperity the destroyer shall come upon him .
*
He believeth not that he shall return out of darkness ,
and he is waited for of the sword .
*
He wandereth abroad for bread ,
saying ,
Where is it ?
he knoweth that the day of darkness is ready at his hand .
*
Trouble and anguish shall make him afraid ;
they shall prevail against him ,
as a king ready to the battle .
*
For he stretcheth out his hand against God ,
and strengtheneth himself against the Almighty .
*
He runneth upon him ,
even on his neck tsavva #
r #,
upon the thick bosses of his bucklers :
*
Because he covereth his face with his fatness ,
and maketh collops of fat on his flanks .
*
And he dwelleth in desolate cities ,
and in houses which no man inhabiteth ,
which are ready to become heaps .
*
He shall not be rich ,
neither shall his substance continue ,
neither shall he prolong the perfection thereof upon the earth .
*
He shall not depart out of darkness ;
the flame shall dry up his branches ,
and by the breath of his mouth shall he go away .
*
Let not him that is deceived trust in vanity :
for vanity shall be his recompence .
*
It shall be accomplished before his time ,
and his branch shall not be green ra #
anan #.
*
He shall shake off his unripe grape as the vine ,
and shall cast off his flower as the olive .
*
For the congregation of hypocrites shall be desolate ,
and fire shall consume the tabernacles of bribery .
*
They conceive mischief ,
and bring forth vanity ,
and their belly prepareth deceit .
