Job 27:13-23
English Standard Version
Job 27:13-23
English Standard Version
13 (A)“This is the portion of a wicked man with God,
and the heritage that (B)oppressors receive from the Almighty:
14 If his (C)children are multiplied, it is for (D)the sword,
and his descendants have not enough bread.
15 Those who survive him the pestilence buries,
and his (E)widows do not weep.
16 Though he (F)heap up silver like dust,
and pile up clothing like clay,
17 he may pile it up, but the righteous will wear it,
and (G)the innocent will divide the silver.
18 He builds his (H)house like a moth's,
like (I)a booth that (J)a watchman makes.
19 He goes to bed rich, but will (K)do so no more;
he opens his eyes, and (L)his wealth is gone.
20 (M)Terrors overtake him like (N)a flood;
in the night a whirlwind (O)carries him off.
21 (P)The east wind lifts him up and he is gone;
it (Q)sweeps him out of his place.
22 It[a] hurls at him (R)without pity;
he flees from its[b] power in headlong flight.
23 It (S)claps its hands at him
and (T)hisses at him from its place.

Job 27:13-23
New International Version
13 “Here is the fate God allots to the wicked,
the heritage a ruthless man receives from the Almighty:(A)
14 However many his children,(B) their fate is the sword;(C)
his offspring will never have enough to eat.(D)
15 The plague will bury those who survive him,
and their widows will not weep for them.(E)
16 Though he heaps up silver like dust(F)
and clothes like piles of clay,(G)
17 what he lays up(H) the righteous will wear,(I)
and the innocent will divide his silver.(J)
18 The house(K) he builds is like a moth’s cocoon,(L)
like a hut(M) made by a watchman.
19 He lies down wealthy, but will do so no more;(N)
when he opens his eyes, all is gone.(O)
20 Terrors(P) overtake him like a flood;(Q)
a tempest snatches him away in the night.(R)
21 The east wind(S) carries him off, and he is gone;(T)
it sweeps him out of his place.(U)
22 It hurls itself against him without mercy(V)
as he flees headlong(W) from its power.(X)
23 It claps its hands(Y) in derision
and hisses him out of his place.”(Z)
