  • Job 15:20-35 : 20 `All days of the wicked he is paining himself, And few years have been laid up for the terrible one. 21 A fearful voice `is' in his ears, In peace doth a destroyer come to him. 22 He believeth not to return from darkness, And watched `is' he for the sword. 23 He is wandering for bread -- `Where `is' it?' He hath known that ready at his hand Is a day of darkness. 24 Terrify him do adversity and distress, They prevail over him As a king ready for a boaster. 25 For he stretched out against God his hand, And against the Mighty he maketh himself mighty. 26 He runneth unto Him with a neck, With thick bosses of his shields. 27 For he hath covered his face with his fat, And maketh vigour over `his' confidence. 28 And he inhabiteth cities cut off, houses not dwelt in, That have been ready to become heaps. 29 He is not rich, nor doth his wealth rise, Nor doth he stretch out on earth their continuance. 30 He turneth not aside from darkness, His tender branch doth a flame dry up, And he turneth aside at the breath of His mouth! 31 Let him not put credence in vanity, He hath been deceived, For vanity is his recompence. 32 Not in his day is it completed, And his bending branch is not green. 33 He shaketh off as a vine his unripe fruit, And casteth off as an olive his blossom. 34 For the company of the profane `is' gloomy, And fire hath consumed tents of bribery. 35 To conceive misery, and to bear iniquity, Even their heart doth prepare deceit.
