and the heritage that oppressors receive from the Almighty:[a](A)

and their offspring have not enough to eat.(B)
15 Those who survive them the pestilence buries,
and their widows make no lamentation.(C)

and pile up clothing like clay,(D)
17 they may pile it up, but the just will wear it,
and the innocent will divide the silver.(E)

like booths made by sentinels of the vineyard.
19 They go to bed with wealth but will do so no more;
they open their eyes, and it is gone.(F)
20 Terrors overtake them like a flood;
in the night a whirlwind carries them off.(G)
21 The east wind lifts them up, and they are gone;
it sweeps them out of their place.(H)
22 It[b] hurls at them without pity;
they flee from its[c] power in headlong flight.(I)
23 It[d] claps its[e] hands at them
and hisses at them from its[f] place.(J)
