New Testament

Job 20:21-29 Common English Bible (CEB)

21. Nothing remained of their food,so their riches will not endure.

22. Even in their plenty, they are hard-pressed;all sorts of trouble come on them.

23. Let God fill their belly,unleash his burning anger on them,rain punishing blows on them.

24. If they flee an iron weapon,a bronze bow pierces them.

25. They pull it out, but it sticks out from their backs;its shaft in their liver brings terror.

26. Complete darkness waits for their treasured possessions;fire that no one stoked consumes them;what’s left in their tent is ruined.

27. Heaven exposes their guilt;earth opposes them.

28. Their household wealth will be carried offby rushing streams on the day of his anger.

29. This is a wicked person’s lot from God,their heritage decreed by God.
