²⁰ “Since his appetite won’t quit;^[a]
    he won’t let anything escape his lust.^[b]
21 Because nothing was left for him to devour,
    therefore his prosperity won’t last.
²² Even though he is satiated and self-sufficient, he suffers—
    everyone in any sort of trouble will attack him.

²³ “It will come about that,
    when he has filled himself to the full,
God^[c] will vent his burning anger on him;
    he will pour it out on him and on his body.
²⁴ Though he dodges an iron weapon,
    a bronze arrow will pierce him.
²⁵ It will impale him and come out through his back;
    the point will glisten as it protrudes through his gall bladder,
        and he will be terrified.

²⁶ “Total darkness has been reserved for his treasures;
    a fire that has no need to be kindled will devour him
        and consume whatever remains in his possession.^[d]
27 Heaven will reveal his iniquity,
    while the earth will rise up against him.
²⁸ A flood will wash away his house;
    dragging it away when God becomes angry.
²⁹ This is what the wicked person inherits from God;
    it is the inheritance that God appoints for him.”
