23 One dies in his full strength, sound of body, being wholly confident, and at ease. 24 His body is full of fat, and his bones are filled with marrow. 25 And another dies in the bitterness of his soul, never having tasted prosperity. 26 They shall lie down in the dust, and the worms shall cover them. 27 Behold, I know your thoughts, and the devices which you wrongfully imagine against me. 28 For you say. Where is the house of the righteous? And where is the place in which the wicked has pitched his tent? 29 Have you not asked those who pass by the way? And do you not recognize their tokens? 30 For the evil man is reserved for the day of destruction, he shall be remembered in the day of wrath. 31 Who can show him the way? And who shall repay him for what he has done? 32 Yet he shall be brought to the grave, he is reserved for misfortune. 33 The depths of the valley shall swallow him, and many shall be drawn in after him, even as there are innumerable ahead of him. 34 How then can you comfort me in vain, seeing that your abominable answers are multiplied before me?
