23 One dyeth in his full strength, being in all ease and prosperitie. 24 His breasts are full of milke, and his bones runne full of marowe. 25 And another dieth in the bitternes of his soule, and neuer eateth with pleasure. 26 They shal sleepe both in the dust, & the wormes shal couer them. 27 Behold, I know your thoughts, and the enterprises, wherewith ye do me wrong. 28 For ye say, Where is the princes house? & where is the tabernacle of the wickeds dwelling? 29 May ye not aske the that go by the way? and ye can not deny their signes. 30 But the wicked is kept vnto the day of destruction, and they shall be brought forth to the day of wrath. 31 Who shal declare his way to his face? & who shal reward him for that he hath done? 32 Yet shal he be brought to the graue, & remaine in the heape. 33 The slimie valley shalbe sweete vnto him, and euery man shal draw after him, as before him there were innumerable. 34 How then comfort ye me in vaine, seeing in your answeres there remaine but lyes?
