For he is thrown into a net by his own feet, and he walks on a net. The trap shall take him by the heel, and the noose shall hold sway over him. The pitfall is laid for him in the ground, and a trap for him in the way. Terrors shall make him afraid on every side, and shall dash him at his feet. His strength shall be hunger-bitten, and trouble shall be ready at his side. It shall devour the parts of his skin; the first-born of death consumes his parts. His hope shall be rooted out of his tent, and you marched to the king of terrors. What is not his shall dwell in his tent; brimstone shall be scattered on his home.

Those after him shall be amazed at his day; and those before were seized with horror. Surely these are the dwellings of the perverse, and this the place that has not known God.

Though he heaps up silver like the dust, and prepares clothing like the clay, he may prepare, but the just shall put it on, and the innocent shall divide the silver. He builds his house like a moth, and like a booth that a watchman makes. The rich man shall lie down, but he shall not be gathered. He opens his eyes, and he is not. Terrors overtake him like waters; a tempest steals him away in the night. The east wind lifts him up, and he is gone; for it whirls him out of his place. For it will hurl at him, and will not spare; he will surely flee out of its hand. He shall clap His hands at him, and shall hiss him out of his place.

He wanders for bread, saying, Where is it? He knows that the day of darkness is ready at hand. Trouble and pain shall terrify him; they shall overpower him, as a king ready for the battle; because he stretches out his hand against God, and sets himself against the Almighty. He runs at him, with a stiff neck, with the thick layers of his shields, because he has covered his face with fat; he has put fat on his loins. And he lives in cut off cities, in houses where none are living, which are ready to become heaps. He shall not be rich, nor shall his wealth hold out, nor shall he stretch out his gain on the earth. He shall not escape from darkness; the flame shall dry up his branches, and at the breath of his mouth he shall turn away. Let not he being deceived trust in vanity; for vanity shall be his reward. It shall be done before his time, and his branch shall not be green. He shall shake off its unripe grape, as the vine; and shall cast off his flower like the olive. For the company of the ungodly shall be barren, and fire shall devour the tents of bribery. They conceive mischief, and bring forth evil, and their belly prepares deceit.

He flies away like a dream, and shall not be found, and shall be chased away like a vision of the night. An eye glimpsed him, but will not again; yea, his place shall not see him again. His sons shall seek to please the poor, and his hands shall restore his wealth. His bones are full of his youthful vigor, but it lies down with him in the dust. Though wickedness is sweet in his mouth, though he hides it under his tongue; though he spares it and will not leave it; yea, keeps it still in his mouth; yet his food in his belly shall be turned; the gall of asps is within him. He swallows riches, but vomits it; God shall cast them out of his belly. He shall suck the poison of asps; the viper's tongue shall slay him. He shall not see the rivers, the flowings of the brooks of honey and butter, giving back his gain, and he will not eat. As to the wealth of his trading, even he shall not enjoy it. For he pressed down and forsook the poor; he stole a house, but he had not built it. Surely he shall not know quietness in his belly; he will not escape with the things of desire. None of his food shall be left; therefore his good will not last. In the fullness of his plenty he shall be in trouble; every wretched one shall come on him. It shall happen at the filling of his belly, God shall cast the fury of His wrath on him, and He shall rain on him while he is eating. He shall flee from the iron weapon, a bow of bronze shall pierce him. One draws it, and treads it from behind, even lightning from his gall; terror is on him. All darkness shall be hidden in his secret places; a fire not blown shall consume him; those left in his tent shall be broken. The heavens shall reveal his iniquity, and the earth rise up against him. The increase of his house shall depart, and shall flow away in the day of his wrath. This is the portion of a wicked man from God, and the inheritance of his word from God.

Their bull mates and does not fail; their cow calves, and does not cast her calf. They send forth their little ones like a flock, and their children dance. They lift up voice at the timbrel and harp, and rejoice at the sound of the flute. They spend their days in good, and in a moment go down to the grave. And they say to God, Depart from us; for we do not desire the knowledge of Your ways; what is the Almighty, that we should serve Him? And what profit should we have if we pray to Him? Behold, their good is not in their hand; the wisdom of the wicked is far from me. How often is the lamp of the wicked put out, and their trouble comes on them! He shares out pains in His anger; they are as stubble before the wind, and as chaff that the storm steals away. God lays up his iniquity for his children. He repays him, and he knows. His eyes shall see his ruin, and he shall drink of the wrath of the Almighty. For what is his pleasure in his house after him, and the number of his months is cut off? Shall any teach God knowledge, since He shall judge the exalted? One dies in his full strength, being wholly at ease and quiet. His sides are full of milk, his bones are wet with marrow. And another dies with bitter soul, and never eats with pleasure. They lie down together in the dust, and the worms shall cover them. Behold, I know your thoughts, and the plots which you wrongfully hatch against me. For you say, Where is the house of the noble, and where the dwelling-places of the wicked? Did you not ask those who go by the way? And do you not know their signs, that the wicked is kept for the day of calamity? They shall be brought to the day of wrath. Who shall declare his way to his face? And who shall repay him what he has done? Yet he shall be brought to the grave, and watch shall be kept over his tomb. And the clods of the valley shall be sweet to him and every man shall draw after him, as there is no numbering of those before him.

Behold, like wild asses in the desert, they go forth to their work, rising early for a prey. The wilderness yields food for them and for their children. They reap his fodder in the field; and they gather the grapes of the wicked. They lodge the naked without clothing, and give no covering in the cold. They are wet with the showers of the mountains, and embrace the rock for lack of shelter. They pluck the fatherless from the breast, and take a pledge from the poor. They cause him to go naked without clothing, and they take away the sheaves from the hungry. They press out oil between their walls; they tread their winepresses, and still suffer thirst. Men groan from out of the city, and the soul of the wounded cries for help; yet God does not charge foolishness. They are of those who rebel against the light; they know not His ways, nor stay in His paths. The murderer rising with the light kills the poor and needy, and in the night he is a thief. And the eye of the adulterer waits for the twilight, saying, No eye will see me; and he puts a covering on his face. In the dark they dig through houses which they had marked for themselves in the daytime; they do not know the light. For the morning is to them like the shadow of death; for they know the terrors of the shadow of death. He is swift on the waters; their portion is cursed in the earth; he does not behold the way of the vineyards. Drought and heat eat up the snow waters; so does the grave those who have sinned. The womb shall forget him; the worm shall feed sweetly on him; he shall be remembered no more; and injustice shall be broken like a tree. He ill-treats the women who bear no children; and does no good to the widow. He also draws the mighty with his power; he rises up, and no one is sure of life. He gives safety to him, and he rests on it; yet His eyes are on their ways. They are lifted up for a little while, but are gone and brought low; they are gathered in like all others, and are cut off like the heads of the ears of grain.

And it shall be, whoever will not come up from all the families of the earth to Jerusalem to worship the King, Jehovah of Hosts, even on them shall be no rain.
