Job 15:17-25

17“Listen to me and I will explain to you; let me tell you what I have seen,

18what the wise have declared, hiding nothing received from their ancestors

19(to whom alone the land was given when no foreigners moved among them):

20All his days the wicked man suffers torment, the ruthless man through all the years stored up for him.

21Terrifying sounds fill his ears; when all seems well, marauders attack him.

22He despairs of escaping the realm of darkness; he is marked for the sword.

23He wanders about for food like a vulture; he knows the day of darkness is at hand.

24Distress and anguish fill him with terror; troubles overwhelm him, like a king poised to attack,

25because he shakes his fist at God and vaunts himself against the Almighty,
