Job 27:13-23

13This is the portionH2506 of a wickedH7563 manH120 with GodH410, and the heritageH5159 of oppressorsH6184, which they shall receiveH3947 of the AlmightyH7706.

14If his childrenH1121 be multipliedH7235, it is forH3926 the swordH2719: and his offspringH6631 shall not be satisfiedH7646 with breadH3899.

15Those that remainH8300 of him shall be buriedH6912 in deathH4194: and his widowsH490 shall not weepH1058.

16Though he heap upH6651 silverH3701 as the dustH6083, and prepareH3559 raimentH4403 as the clayH2563;

17He may prepareH3559 it, but the justH6662 shall put it onH3847, and the innocentH5355 shall divideH2505 the silverH3701.

18He buildethH1129 his houseH1004 as a mothH6211, and as a boothH5521 that the keeperH5341 makethH6213.

19The richH6223 man shall lie downH7901, but he shall not be gatheredH622: he openethH6491 his eyesH5869, and he is not.

20TerrorsH1091 take holdH5381 on him as watersH4325, a tempestH5492 stealeth him awayH1589 in the nightH3915.

21The eastH6921 wind carrieth him awayH5375, and he departethH3212: and as a storm hurlethH8175 him out of his placeH4725.

22For God shall castH7993 upon him, and not spareH2550: he would fainH1272 fleeH1272 out of his handH3027.1

23Men shall clapH5606 their handsH3709 at him, and shall hissH8319 him out of his placeH4725.
