Job 20:20-29

New Century Version

²⁰ “Evil people never lack an appetite,
    and nothing escapes their selfishness.
²¹ But nothing will be left for them to eat;
    their riches will not continue.
²² When they still have plenty, trouble will catch up to them,
    and great misery will come down on them.
²³ When the wicked fill their stomachs,
    God will send his burning anger against them,
    and blows of punishment will fall on them like rain.
²⁴ The wicked may run away from an iron weapon,
    but a bronze arrow will stab them.
²⁵ They will pull the arrows out of their backs
    and pull the points out of their livers.
Terrors will come over them;
²⁶ total darkness waits for their treasure.
A fire not fanned by people will destroy them
    and burn up what is left of their tents.
²⁷ The heavens will show their guilt,
    and the earth will rise up against them.
²⁸ A flood will carry their houses away,
    swept away on the day of God’s anger.
²⁹ This is what God plans for evil people;
    this is what he has decided they will receive.”
