16 If he shall heap together silver as earth, and prepare raiment as clay, 17 He shall prepare indeed, but the just man shall be clothed with it: and the innocent shall divide the silver. 18 He hath built his house as a moth, and as a keeper he hath made a booth. 19 The rich man when he shall sleep shall take away nothing with him: he shall open his eyes and find nothing. 20 Poverty like water shall take hold on him, a tempest shall oppress him in the night. 21 A burning wind shall take him up, and carry him away, and as a whirlwind shall snatch him from his place. 22 And he shall cast upon him, and shall not spare: out of his hand he would willingly flee. 23 He shall clasp his hands upon him, and shall hiss at him, beholding his place.
