Job 20:19-28

19 because they oppressed and neglected the poor and seized houses someone else had built.

19 For he has oppressed the poor and left them destitute; he has seized houses he did not build.

20 Their greed is never satisfied.

20 “Surely he will have no respite from his craving; he cannot save himself by his treasure.

21 When they eat, there is nothing left over, but now their prosperity comes to an end.

21 Nothing is left for him to devour; his prosperity will not endure.

22 At the height of their success all the weight of misery will crush them.

22 In the midst of his plenty, distress will overtake him; the full force of misery will come upon him.

23 Let them eat all they want! God will punish them in fury and anger.

23 When he has filled his belly, God will vent his burning anger against him and rain down his blows on him.

24 When they try to escape from an iron sword, a bronze bow will shoot them down.

24 Though he flees from an iron weapon, a bronze-tipped arrow pierces him.

25 Arrows stick through their bodies; the shiny points drip with their blood, and terror grips their hearts.

25 He pulls it out of his back, the gleaming point out of his liver. Terrors will come over him;

26 Everything they have saved is destroyed; a fire not lit by human hands burns them and all their family.

26 total darkness lies in wait for his treasures. A fire unfanned will consume him and devour what is left in his tent.

27 Heaven reveals their sin, and the earth gives testimony against them.

27 The heavens will expose his guilt; the earth will rise up against him.

28 All their wealth will be destroyed in the flood of God's anger.

28 A flood will carry off his house, rushing waters on the day of God’s wrath.
