23. He wanders abroad for bread, saying, ‘Where is it?’He knows that a day of darkness is ready at his hand;
24. distress and anguish terrify him;they prevail against him, like a king ready for battle.
25. Because he has stretched out his hand against Godand defies the Almighty,
26. running stubbornly against himwith a thickly bossed shield;
27. because he has covered his face with his fatand gathered fat upon his waist
28. and has lived in desolate cities,in houses that none should inhabit,which were ready to become heaps of ruins;
29. he will not be rich, and his wealth will not endure,nor will his possessions spread over the earth;
