• Job 15:20-35 : 20 The wicked man travails with pain all his days, Even the number of years that are laid up for the oppressor. 21 A sound of terrors is in his ears; In prosperity the destroyer shall come on him. 22 He doesn't believe that he shall return out of darkness, He is waited for by the sword. 23 He wanders abroad for bread, saying, 'Where is it?' He knows that the day of darkness is ready at his hand. 24 Distress and anguish make him afraid; They prevail against him, as a king ready to the battle. 25 Because he has stretched out his hand against God, And behaves himself proudly against the Almighty; 26 He runs at him with a stiff neck, With the thick shields of his bucklers; 27 Because he has covered his face with his fatness, And gathered fat on his loins. 28 He has lived in desolate cities, In houses which no one inhabited, Which were ready to become heaps. 29 He shall not be rich, neither shall his substance continue, Neither shall their possessions be extended on the earth. 30 He shall not depart out of darkness; The flame shall dry up his branches, By the breath of God's mouth shall he go away. 31 Let him not trust in emptiness, deceiving himself; For emptiness shall be his reward. 32 It shall be accomplished before his time. His branch shall not be green. 33 He shall shake off his unripe grape as the vine, And shall cast off his flower as the olive tree. 34 For the company of the godless shall be barren, And fire shall consume the tents of bribery. 35 They conceive mischief, and bring forth iniquity. Their heart prepares deceit."
