16 Though he heap up silver as the dust, and prepare raiment as the clay;

17 He may prepare it, but the just shall put it on, and the innocent shall divide the silver.

18 He buildeth his house as the moth, and as a booth which the keeper maketh.

19 He lieth down rich, but he shall not be gathered; he openeth his eyes, and he is not.

20 Terrors overtake him like waters; a tempest stealeth him away in the night.

21 The east wind carrieth him away, and he departeth; and it sweepeth him out of his place.

22 For God shall hurl at him, and not spare: he would fain flee out of his hand.

23 Men shall clap their hands at him, and shall hiss him out of his place.
