Job 27:19
Compare all
17 He may pile it up, but athe just will wear it,
And the innocent will divide the silver. 
18 He builds his house like a1 moth,
aLike a1 booth which a watchman makes. 
19 The rich man will lie down,
1But not be gathered up;
He opens his eyes,
And he is ano more. 
20 aTerrors overtake him like a flood;
A tempest steals him away in the night. 
21 The east wind carries him away, and he is gone;
It sweeps him out of his place.
22 It hurls against him and does not aspare;
He flees desperately from its1 power. 
23 Men shall clap their hands at him,
And shall hiss him out of his place.
