Job 20:15-29

15He swallows down riches And vomits them up again; God casts them out of his belly.

16He will suck the poison of cobras; The viper’s tongue will slay him.

17He will not see the streams, The rivers flowing with honey and cream.

18He will restore that for which he labored, And will not swallow it down; From the proceeds of business He will get no enjoyment.

19For he has oppressed and forsaken the poor, He has violently seized a house which he did not build.

20“Because he knows no quietness in his heart, He will not save anything he desires.

21Nothing is left for him to eat; Therefore his well-being will not last.

22In his self-sufficiency he will be in distress; Every hand of misery will come against him.

23When he is about to fill his stomach, God will cast on him the fury of His wrath, And will rain it on him while he is eating.

24He will flee from the iron weapon; A bronze bow will pierce him through.

25It is drawn, and comes out of the body; Yes, the glittering point comes out of his gall. Terrors come upon him;

26Total darkness is reserved for his treasures. An unfanned fire will consume him; It shall go ill with him who is left in his tent.

27The heavens will reveal his iniquity, And the earth will rise up against him.

28The increase of his house will depart, And his goods will flow away in the day of His wrath.

29This is the portion from God for a wicked man, The heritage appointed to him by God.”
