New Testament

Job 20:15-24 God's Word Translation (GW)

15. He vomits up the riches that he swallowed.God forces them out of his stomach.

16. The godless person sucks the poison of snakes.A viper’s fang kills him.

17. He won’t be able to drink from the streamsor from the rivers of honey and buttermilk.

18. He will give back what he earned without enjoying it.He will get no joy from the profits of his business

19. because he crushed and abandoned the poor.He has taken by force a house that he didn’t build.

20. He will never know peace in his heart.He will never allow anything he desires to escape ⌊his grasp⌋.

21. “Nothing is left for him to eat.His prosperity won’t last.

22. ⌊Even⌋ with all his wealththe full force of misery comes down on him.

23. Let that misery fill his belly.⌊God⌋ throws his burning anger at the godless personand makes his wrath come down on him like rain.

24. If that person flees from an iron weapon,a bronze bow will pierce him.
