18 He (A)returns the product of his laborAnd cannot swallow it;As to the riches of his trading,He cannot even enjoy them.
16 Though he piles up silver like dust,And prepares garments as plentiful as the clay,
17 He may prepare it, (A)but the righteous will wear itAnd the innocent will divide the silver.
