8. As a dream that fleeth away he shall not be found, he shall pass as a vision of the night:
9. The eyes that had seen him, shall see him no more, neither shall his place any more behold him.
10. His children shall be oppressed with want, and his hands shall render him his sorrow.
11. His bones shall be filled with the vices of his youth, and they shall sleep with him in the dust.
12. For when evil shall be sweet in his mouth, he will hide it under his tongue.
13. He will spare it, and not leave it, and will hide it in his throat.
14. His bread in his belly shall be turned into the gall of asps within him.
15. The riches which he hath swallowed; he shall vomit up, and God shall draw them out of his belly.
16. He shall suck the head of asps, and the viper's tongue shall kill him.
17. (Let him not see the streams of the river, the brooks of honey and of butter.)
18. He shall be punished for all that he did, and yet shall not be consumed: according to the multitude of his devices so also shall he suffer.
19. Because he broke in and stripped the poor: he hath violently taken away a house which he did not build.
