Job 20:21 Context

◄ Job 20:21 ►

Nothing is left for him to consume; thus his prosperity will not endure.

Context

21“Nothing remains for him to devour,
Therefore his prosperity does not endure.

22“In the fullness of his plenty he will be cramped;
The hand of everyone who suffers will come against him.

23“When he fills his belly,
God will send His fierce anger on him
And will rain it on him while he is eating.

24“He may flee from the iron weapon,
But the bronze bow will pierce him.

25“It is drawn forth and comes out of his back,
Even the glittering point from his gall.
Terrors come upon him,

26Complete darkness is held in reserve for his treasures,
And unfanned fire will devour him;
It will consume the survivor in his tent.

27“The heavens will reveal his iniquity,
And the earth will rise up against him.

28“The increase of his house will depart;
His possessions will flow away in the day of His anger.

29“This is the wicked man’s portion from God,
Even the heritage decreed to him by God.”
