Job 15:25 Context

◄ Job 15:25 ►

For he has stretched out his hand against God and has vaunted himself against the Almighty,

Context

25Because he has stretched out his hand against God
And conducts himself arrogantly against the Almighty.

26“He rushes headlong at Him
With his massive shield.

27“For he has covered his face with his fat
And made his thighs heavy with flesh.

28“He has lived in desolate cities,
In houses no one would inhabit,
Which are destined to become ruins.

29“He will not become rich, nor will his wealth endure;
And his grain will not bend down to the ground.

30“He will not escape from darkness;
The flame will wither his shoots,
And by the breath of His mouth he will go away.

31“Let him not trust in emptiness, deceiving himself;
For emptiness will be his reward.

32“It will be accomplished before his time,
And his palm branch will not be green.

33“He will drop off his unripe grape like the vine,
And will cast off his flower like the olive tree.

34“For the company of the godless is barren,
And fire consumes the tents of the corrupt.

35“They conceive mischief and bring forth iniquity,
And their mind prepares deception.”
