Zophar Speaks: The Wicked Will Suffer
|
||||
|
||||
# Chapter 20
|
||||
1. Then Zophar the Naamathite answered and said:
|
||||
|
||||
2. "Therefore my thoughts answer me,
|
||||
because of my haste within me.
|
||||
|
||||
3. I hear censure that insults me,
|
||||
and out of my understanding a spirit answers me.
|
||||
|
||||
4. Do you not know this from of old,
|
||||
since man was placed on earth,
|
||||
|
||||
5. that the exulting of the wicked is short,
|
||||
and the joy of the godless but for a moment?
|
||||
|
||||
6. Though his height mount up to the heavens,
|
||||
and his head reach to the clouds,
|
||||
|
||||
7. he will perish forever like his own dung;
|
||||
those who have seen him will say, 'Where is he?'
|
||||
|
||||
8. He will fly away like a dream and not be found;
|
||||
he will be chased away like a vision of the night.
|
||||
|
||||
9. The eye that saw him will see him no more,
|
||||
nor will his place any more behold him.
|
||||
|
||||
10. His children will seek the favor of the poor,
|
||||
and his hands will give back his wealth.
|
||||
|
||||
11. His bones are full of his youthful vigor,
|
||||
but it will lie down with him in the dust.
|
||||
|
||||
12. "Though evil is sweet in his mouth,
|
||||
though he hides it under his tongue,
|
||||
|
||||
13. though he is loath to let it go
|
||||
and holds it in his mouth,
|
||||
|
||||
14. yet his food is turned in his stomach;
|
||||
it is the venom of cobras within him.
|
||||
|
||||
15. He swallows down riches and vomits them up again;
|
||||
God casts them out of his belly.
|
||||
|
||||
16. He will suck the poison of cobras;
|
||||
the tongue of a viper will kill him.
|
||||
|
||||
17. He will not look upon the rivers,
|
||||
the streams flowing with honey and curds.
|
||||
|
||||
18. He will give back the fruit of his toil
|
||||
and will not swallow it down;
|
||||
from the profit of his trading
|
||||
he will get no enjoyment.
|
||||
|
||||
19. For he has crushed and abandoned the poor;
|
||||
he has seized a house that he did not build.
|
||||
|
||||
20. "Because he knew no contentment in his belly,
|
||||
he will not let anything in which he delights escape him.
|
||||
|
||||
21. There was nothing left after he had eaten;
|
||||
therefore his prosperity will not endure.
|
||||
|
||||
22. In the fullness of his sufficiency he will be in distress;
|
||||
the hand of everyone in misery will come against him.
|
||||
|
||||
23. To fill his belly to the full,
|
||||
God will send his burning anger against him
|
||||
and rain it upon him into his body.
|
||||
|
||||
24. He will flee from an iron weapon;
|
||||
a bronze arrow will strike him through.
|
||||
|
||||
25. It is drawn forth and comes out of his body;
|
||||
the glittering point comes out of his gallbladder;
|
||||
terrors come upon him.
|
||||
|
||||
26. Utter darkness is laid up for his treasures;
|
||||
a fire not fanned will devour him;
|
||||
what is left in his tent will be consumed.
|
||||
|
||||
27. The heavens will reveal his iniquity,
|
||||
and the earth will rise up against him.
|
||||
|
||||
28. The possessions of his house will be carried away,
|
||||
dragged off in the day of God's wrath.
|
||||
|
||||
29. This is the wicked man's portion from God,
|
||||
the heritage decreed for him by God."
