Job 15:17-25

17“I will tell you, listen to me; And what I have seen I will also declare;

18What wise men have [freely] told, And have not hidden [anything passed on to them] from their fathers,

19To whom alone the land was given, And no stranger passed among them [corrupting the truth].

20The wicked man writhes with pain all his days, And numbered are the years stored up for him, the ruthless one.

21A [dreadful] sound of terrors is in his ears; While at peace and in a time of prosperity the destroyer comes upon him [the tent of the robber is not at peace].

22He does not believe that he will return out of the darkness [for fear of being murdered], And he is destined for the sword [of God’s vengeance].

23He wanders about for food, saying, ‘Where is it?’ He knows that the day of darkness and destruction is already at hand.

24Distress and anxiety terrify him, They overpower him like a king ready for battle.

25Because he has stretched out his hand against God And behaves arrogantly against the Almighty,
