Verse
Job - ch 15 v 21 - 35
- The sound of terrors is in his ears: in prosperity the destroyer cometh upon him.
- He believeth not that he shall return out of darkness, and he is singled out for the sword.
- He wandereth abroad for bread, -- where may it be? He knoweth that the day of darkness is ready at his hand.
- Distress and anguish make him afraid; they prevail against him, as a king ready for the battle.
- For he hath stretched out his hand against ùGod, and strengthened himself against the Almighty:
- He runneth against him, with outstretched neck, with the thick bosses of his bucklers;
- For he hath covered his face with his fatness, and gathered fat upon his flanks.
- And he dwelleth in desolate cities, in houses that no man inhabiteth, which are destined to become heaps.
- He shall not become rich, neither shall his substance continue, and their possessions shall not extend upon the earth.
- He shall not depart out of darkness; the flame shall dry up his branches; and by the breath of his mouth shall he go away.
- Let him not trust in vanity: he is deceived, for vanity shall be his recompense;
- It shall be complete before his day, and his branch shall not be green.
- He shall shake off his unripe grapes as a vine, and shall cast his flower as an olive.
- For the family of the ungodly shall be barren, and fire shall consume the tents of bribery.
- They conceive mischief, and bring forth iniquity, and their belly prepareth deceit.
