Jó 20:20

20 Porquanto não houve limite � sua cobiça, nada salvará daquilo em que se deleita.

Jó 20:20 Meaning and Commentary

Job 20:20

Surely he shall not feel quietness in his belly
Or happiness in his children, so some in Bar Tzemach; rather shall have no satisfaction in his substance; though his belly is filled with hid treasure, it shall give him no contentment; he shall be a stranger to that divine art, but ever have a restless craving after more, which is his sin; but rather punishment is here meant, and the sense is, that he shall have no quiet in his conscience, no peace of mind, because of his sin in getting riches in an unlawful way:

he shall not save of that which he desired;
of his desirable things, his goods, his wealth, his riches, and even his children, all being gone, and none saved; respect may be had particularly to Job's case, who was stripped of everything, of all his substance and his children.

Jó 20:20 In-Context

18 O que adquiriu pelo trabalho, isso restituirá, e não o engolirá; não se regozijará conforme a fazenda que ajuntou.
19 Pois que oprimiu e desamparou os pobres, e roubou a casa que não edificou.
20 Porquanto não houve limite � sua cobiça, nada salvará daquilo em que se deleita.
21 Nada escapou � sua voracidade; pelo que a sua prosperidade não perdurará.
22 Na plenitude da sua abastança, estará angustiado; toda a força da miséria virá sobre ele.
