Job 20:24-29 ▼

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

25 “The arrow is drawn forth and it comes out of his back [after passing through his body]; Yes, the glittering point comes out of his gall. Terrors march in upon him;

26 Complete darkness (misfortune) is held in reserve for his treasures. An unfanned fire will devour him; It will consume the survivor in his tent.

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

28 “The produce and increase of his house will depart [with the victors]; His possessions will be dragged away in the day of God’s wrath.

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