Job 27:17-23

KJV

NIV

17 He may prepare it, but the just shall put it on, and the innocent shall divide the silver.
17 what he lays up the righteous will wear, and the innocent will divide his silver.
18 He buildeth his house as a moth, and as a booth that the keeper maketh.
18 The house he builds is like a moth’s cocoon, like a hut made by a watchman.
19 The rich man shall lie down, but he shall not be gathered: he openeth his eyes, and he is not.
19 He lies down wealthy, but will do so no more; when he opens his eyes, all is gone.
20 Terrors take hold on him as waters, a tempest stealeth him away in the night.
20 Terrors overtake him like a flood; a tempest snatches him away in the night.
21 The east wind carrieth him away, and he departeth: and as a storm hurleth him out of his place.
21 The east wind carries him off, and he is gone; it sweeps him out of his place.
22 For God shall cast upon him, and not spare: he would fain flee out of his hand.
22 It hurls itself against him without mercy as he flees headlong from its power.
23 Men shall clap their hands at him, and shall hiss him out of his place.
23 It claps its hands in derision and hisses him out of his place.”
