25. Because he hath stretched out his hand against God, And behaveth himself proudly against the Almighty;
26. He runneth upon him with a stiff neck, With the thick bosses of his bucklers;
27. Because he hath covered his face with his fatness, And gathered fat upon his loins;
28. And he hath dwelt in desolate cities, In houses which no man inhabited, Which were ready to become heaps;
29. He shall not be rich, neither shall his substance continue, Neither shall their possessions be extended on the earth.
30. He shall not depart out of darkness; The flame shall dry up his branches, And by the breath of God’s mouth shall he go away.
31. Let him not trust in vanity, deceiving himself; For vanity shall be his recompense.
32. It shall be accomplished before his time, And his branch shall not be green.
