Job 27:10-22

1. 10 Will he delight himself in the Almighty? will he always call upon God?

2. 11 I will teach you by the hand of God: that which is with the Almighty will I not conceal.

3. 12 Behold, all ye yourselves have seen it; why then are ye thus altogether vain?

4. 13 This is the portion of a wicked man with God, and the heritage of oppressors, which they shall receive of the Almighty.

5. 14 If his children be multiplied, it is for the sword: and his offspring shall not be satisfied with bread.

6. 15 Those that remain of him shall be buried in death: and his widows shall not weep.

7. 16 Though he heap up silver as the dust, and prepare raiment as the clay;

8. 17 He may prepare it, but the just shall put it on, and the innocent shall divide the silver.

9. 18 He buildeth his house as a moth, and as a booth that the keeper maketh.

10. 19 The rich man shall lie down, but he shall not be gathered: he openeth his eyes, and he is not.

11. 20 Terrors take hold on him as waters, a tempest stealeth him away in the night.

12. 21 The east wind carrieth him away, and he departeth: and as a storm hurleth him out of his place.

13. 22 For God shall cast upon him, and not spare: he would fain flee out of his hand.
