Read Job 20 in full →15“He swallows up wealth,But will avomit it up;God will expel it from his belly.16“He sucks athe poison of cobras;The viper’s tongue kills him.17“He does not look at athe streams,The rivers flowing with honey and curds.18“He areturns what he has attainedAnd cannot swallow it;As to the wealth of his trading,He cannot even enjoy it.19“For he has acrushed and forsaken the poor;He has seized a house which he has not built.20“Because he knew no ease within his belly,In his covetousness, he does anot let anything escape.21“Nothing remains 1for him to devour;Therefore ahis prosperity does not endure.22“In the fullness of his plenty he will be confined;The ahand of everyone who is troubled will come against him.23“So it will be that he afills his belly,And God will send His burning anger on himAnd will brain it on him 1while he is eating.24“He may aflee from the iron weapon,But the bronze bow will pierce him.25“It is drawn forth and comes out of his back,Even the glittering point from ahis gall;bBouts of dread come upon him.26Complete adarkness is held in reserve for his treasures;A bfire unfanned will devour him;It will consume the survivor in his tent.27“The aheavens will reveal his iniquity,And the earth will rise up against him.28“The aincrease of his house will depart;His possessions will flow away bin the day of His anger.29“This is the wicked man’s aportion from God,Even the inheritance decreed to him by God.”
