Jó 20

1 Then answered Zophar the Naamathite, and said,

2 Therefore do my thoughts cause me to answer, and for this I make haste.I make…: Heb. my haste is in me

3 I have heard the rebuke that reproaches me, and the spirit of my understanding causeth me to answer.

4 Knowest thou not this of old, since man was placed upon earth,

5 That the triumphing of the wicked is short, and the joy of the hypocrite but for a moment?short: Heb. from near

6 Though his excellency shall mount up to the heavens, and his head reach to the clouds;clouds: Heb. cloud

7 Yet he shall perish for ever like his own dung: they who have seen him shall say, Where is he?

8 He shall fly away as a dream, and shall not be found: yea, he shall be chased away as a vision of the night.

9 The eye also which saw him shall see him no more; neither shall his place any more behold him.

10 His children shall seek to please the poor, and his hands shall restore their goods.His children…: or, The poor shall oppress his children

11 His bones are full of the sin of his youth, which shall lie down with him in the dust.

12 Though wickedness may be sweet in his mouth, though he may hide it under his tongue;

13 Though he may spare it, and forsake it not; but keep it still within his mouth:within…: Heb. in the midst of his palate

14 Yet his food in his body is turned, it is the gall of asps within him.

15 He hath swallowed down riches, and he shall vomit them up again: God shall cast them out of his belly.

16 He shall suck the poison of asps: the viper’s tongue shall slay him.

17 He shall not see the rivers, the floods, the brooks of honey and butter.the floods…: or, streaming brooks

18 That which he laboured for shall he restore, and shall not swallow it down: according to his substance shall the restitution be, and he shall not rejoice in it.his…: Heb. the substance of his exchange

19 Because he hath oppressed and hath forsaken the poor; because he hath violently taken away an house which he did not build;oppressed: Heb. crushed

20 Surely he shall not feel quietness in his belly, he shall not save of that which he desired.feel: Heb. know

21 There shall none of his food be left; therefore shall no man look for his goods.none…: or, be none left for his meat

22 In the fulness of his sufficiency he shall be in straits: every hand of the wicked shall come upon him.wicked: or, troublesome

23 When he is about to fill his belly, God shall cast the fury of his wrath upon him, and shall rain it upon him while he is eating.

24 He shall flee from the iron weapon, and the bow of steel shall strike him through.

25 It is drawn, and cometh out of the body; yea, the glittering sword cometh out of his gall: terrors are upon him.

26 All darkness shall be hid in his secret places: a fire not blown shall consume him; it shall go ill with him that is left in his tent.

27 The heaven shall reveal his iniquity; and the earth shall rise up against him.

28 The increase of his house shall depart, and his goods shall flow away in the day of his wrath.

29 This is the portion of a wicked man from God, and the heritage appointed to him by God.appointed…: Heb. of his decree from God
