Job 15:20-35 - The Tortured Life Of The Wicked Person
20 The ungodly despaireth all the days of his life, and the number of a tyrant's years is unknown. 21 A fearful sound is ever in his ears, and when it is peace yet feareth he destruction. 22 He believeth never to be delivered out of darkness; the sword is always before his eyes. 23 When he goeth forth to get his living, he thinketh plainly, that the day of darkness is at hand. 24 Sorrow and carefulness make him afraid, and compass him round about, like as it where a king with his host ready to the battle. 25 For he hath stretched out his hand against God, and armed himself against the Almighty. 26 He runneth proudly upon him, and with a stiff neck fighteth he against him: 27 whereas he covereth his face with fatness, and maketh his body well liking. 28 Therefore shall his dwelling be in desolate cities, and in houses which no man inhabits, but are become heaps of stones. 29 He shall not be rich, neither shall his substance continue, nor increase upon earth. 30 He shall never come out of darkness, the flame shall dry up his branches, with the blast of the mouth of God shall he be taken away. 31 He will never apply himself to faithfulness and truth, so sore is he deceived with vanity. 32 He shall perish, before his time be worn out, and his hand shall not be green. 33 He shall be plucked off as an untimely grape from the vine, and shall let his flower fall, as the olive doth. 34 For the congregation of hypocrites is unfruitful, and the fire shall consume the houses of such as are greedy to receive gifts. 35 He conceiveth travail, he beareth mischief, and his body bringeth forth deceit."
