Job 20:4-29
That the triumphing
<07445>
<07445>
of the wicked
<07563>
<07563>
[is] short
<07138>_,
<07138>_,
and the joy
<08057>
<08057>
of the hypocrite
<02611>
<02611>
[but] for a moment
<07281>_?
{short: Heb. from near}<07281>_?
Though his excellency
<07863>
<07863>
to the heavens
<08064>_,
<08064>_,
and his head
<07218>
<07218>
unto the clouds
<05645>_;
{clouds: Heb. cloud}<05645>_;
His children
<01121>
<01121>
the poor
<01800>_,
<01800>_,
and his hands
<03027>
<03027>
their goods
<0202>_.
{His children...: or, The poor shall oppress his children}<0202>_.
[Yet] his meat
<03899>
<03899>
in his bowels
<04578>
<04578>
[it is] the gall
<04846>
<04846>
of asps
<06620>
<06620>
within
<07130>
him.<07130>
the rivers
<06390>_,
<06390>_,
the floods
<05104>_,
<05104>_,
the brooks
<05158>
<05158>
of honey
<01706>
<01706>
and butter
<02529>_.
{the floods...: or, streaming brooks}<02529>_.
That which he laboured
<03022>
<03022>
according to [his] substance
<02428>
<02428>
[shall] the restitution
<08545>
[therein]. {his...: Heb. the substance of his exchange}<08545>
There shall none of his meat
<0400>
<0400>
be left
<08300>_;
<08300>_;
for his goods
<02898>_.
{none...: or, be none left for his meat}<02898>_.
of his sufficiency
<05607>
<05607>
every hand
<03027>
<03027>
of the wicked
<06001>
upon him. {wicked: or, troublesome}<06001>
of the body
<01465>_;
<01465>_;
yea, the glittering sword
<01300>
<01300>
of his gall
<04846>_:
<04846>_:
terrors
<0367>
[are] upon him.<0367>
