Job 20:17-24 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

17. (Let him not see the streams of the river, the brooks of honey and of butter.)

18. He shall be punished for all that he did, and yet shall not be consumed: according to the multitude of his devices so also shall he suffer.

19. Because he broke in and stripped the poor: he hath violently taken away a house which he did not build.

20. And yet his belly was not filled: and when he hath the things he coveted, he shall not be able to possess them.

21. There was nothing left of his meat, and therefore nothing shall continue of his goods:

22. When he shall be filled, he shall be straitened, he shall burn, and every sorrow shall fall upon him.

23. May his belly be filled, that God may send forth the wrath of his indignation upon him, and rain down his war upon him.

24. He shall flee from weapons of iron, and shall fall upon a bow of brass.
