Job 15:20

Compare all

18 What wise men have told,
Not hiding anything received ^afrom their fathers,

19 To whom alone the¹ land was given,
And ^ano alien passed among them:

20 The wicked man writhes with pain all his days,
^aAnd the number of years is hidden from the oppressor.

21 ¹Dreadful sounds are in his ears;
^aIn prosperity the destroyer comes upon him.

22 He does not believe that he will ^areturn from darkness,
For a sword is waiting for him.

23 He ^awanders about for bread, saying, ‘Where is it?’
He knows ^bthat a day of darkness is ready at his hand.

24 Trouble and anguish make him afraid;
They overpower him, like a king ready for¹ battle.

25 For he stretches out his hand against God,
And acts defiantly against the Almighty,

26 Running stubbornly against Him
With his strong, embossed shield.
