Job 15:20-35
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
20 The wicked writhe in pain all their days,
through all the years that are laid up for the ruthless.(A)
21 Terrifying sounds are in their ears;
in prosperity the destroyer will come upon them.(B)
22 They despair of returning from darkness,
and they are destined for the sword.(C)
23 They wander abroad for bread, saying, ‘Where is it?’
They know that a day of darkness is ready at hand;(D)
24 distress and anguish terrify them;
they prevail against them like a king prepared for battle.
25 Because they stretched out their hands against God
and bid defiance to the Almighty,[a](E)
26 running stubbornly against him
with a thickly bossed shield;
27 because they have covered their faces with their fat
and gathered fat upon their loins,(F)
28 they will live in desolate cities,
in houses that no one should inhabit,
houses destined to become heaps of ruins;
29 they will not be rich, and their wealth will not endure,
nor will they strike root in the earth;[b](G)
30 they will not escape from darkness;
the flame will dry up their shoots,
and their blossom[c] will be swept away by the wind.(H)
31 Let them not trust in emptiness, deceiving themselves,
for emptiness will be their recompense.(I)
32 It will be paid in full before their time,
and their branch will not be green.(J)
33 They will shake off their unripe grape, like the vine,
and cast off their blossoms, like the olive tree.(K)
34 For the company of the godless is barren,
and fire consumes the tents of bribery.(L)
35 They conceive mischief and bring forth evil,
and their belly prepares deceit.”(M)
Job 15:20-35
New International Version
20 All his days the wicked man suffers torment,(A)
the ruthless man through all the years stored up for him.(B)
21 Terrifying sounds fill his ears;(C)
when all seems well, marauders attack him.(D)
22 He despairs of escaping the realm of darkness;(E)
he is marked for the sword.(F)
23 He wanders about(G) for food like a vulture;(H)
he knows the day of darkness(I) is at hand.(J)
24 Distress and anguish(K) fill him with terror;(L)
troubles overwhelm him, like a king(M) poised to attack,
25 because he shakes his fist(N) at God
and vaunts himself against the Almighty,(O)
26 defiantly charging against him
with a thick, strong shield.(P)
27 “Though his face is covered with fat
and his waist bulges with flesh,(Q)
28 he will inhabit ruined towns
and houses where no one lives,(R)
houses crumbling to rubble.(S)
29 He will no longer be rich and his wealth will not endure,(T)
nor will his possessions spread over the land.(U)
30 He will not escape the darkness;(V)
a flame(W) will wither his shoots,(X)
and the breath of God’s mouth(Y) will carry him away.(Z)
31 Let him not deceive(AA) himself by trusting what is worthless,(AB)
for he will get nothing in return.(AC)
32 Before his time(AD) he will wither,(AE)
and his branches will not flourish.(AF)
33 He will be like a vine stripped of its unripe grapes,(AG)
like an olive tree shedding its blossoms.(AH)
34 For the company of the godless(AI) will be barren,
and fire will consume(AJ) the tents of those who love bribes.(AK)
35 They conceive trouble(AL) and give birth to evil;(AM)
their womb fashions deceit.”

and they take it even out of the thorns,[a]
