New American Standard Bible 1995

Job 20:18-21

18He 1returns what he has attained And cannot swallow it; As to the riches of his trading, He cannot even enjoy them.19For he has 2oppressed and forsaken the poor; He has seized a house which he has not built.

20“Because he knew no quiet 3within him, He does 4not retain anything he desires.21Nothing remains 5for him to devour, Therefore 6his prosperity does not endure.
