11. “I will teach you about God’s hand; I will not conceal that which is with Shaddai.

12. Look, you all have seen, and why in the world have you become altogether vain?

13. “This is the portion of the wicked human being with God, and they receive from Shaddai the inheritance of the ruthless.

14. If their children multiply, it is for the sword, and his offspring do not have enough to eat.

15. Their survivors are buried through the plague, and their widows do not weep.

16. If he heaps up silver like the dust and fashions clothing like the clay,

17. he makes it ready, and the righteous will wear it, and the innocent will divide the silver.

18. “He builds his house like the moth, and like a booth that a watchman has made.

19. He goes to bed with wealth, but he will do so no more; he opens his eyes, and it is gone.
