rsv Job:27:8-23
rsv@Job:27:8 @ For what is the hope of the godless when God cuts him off, when God takes away his life?
rsv@Job:27:9 @ Will God hear his cry, when trouble comes upon him?
rsv@Job:27:10 @ Will he take delight in the Almighty? Will he call upon God at all times?
rsv@Job:27:11 @ I will teach you concerning the hand of God; what is with the Almighty I will not conceal.
rsv@Job:27:12 @ Behold, all of you have seen it yourselves; why then have you become altogether vain?
rsv@Job:27:13 @ "This is the portion of a wicked man with God, and the heritage which oppressors receive from the Almighty:
rsv@Job:27:14 @ If his children are multiplied, it is for the sword; and his offspring have not enough to eat.
rsv@Job:27:15 @ Those who survive him the pestilence buries, and their widows make no lamentation.
rsv@Job:27:16 @ Though he heap up silver like dust, and pile up clothing like clay;
rsv@Job:27:17 @ he may pile it up, but the just will wear it, and the innocent will divide the silver.
rsv@Job:27:18 @ The house which he builds is like a spider's web, like a booth which a watchman makes.
rsv@Job:27:19 @ He goes to bed rich, but will do so no more; he opens his eyes, and his wealth is gone.
rsv@Job:27:20 @ Terrors overtake him like a flood; in the night a whirlwind carries him off.
rsv@Job:27:21 @ The east wind lifts him up and he is gone; it sweeps him out of his place.
rsv@Job:27:22 @ It hurls at him without pity; he flees from its power in headlong flight.
rsv@Job:27:23 @ It claps its hands at him, and hisses at him from its place.
