Job 20:24-29 New English Translation (NET)

24. If he flees from an iron weapon,then an arrow from a bronze bow pierces him.

25. When he pulls it out and it comes out of his back,the gleaming point out of his liver,terrors come over him.

26. Total darkness waits to receive his treasures;a fire which has not been kindled will consume himand devour what is left in his tent.

27. The heavens reveal his iniquity;the earth rises up against him.

28. A flood will carry off his house,rushing waters on the day of God’s wrath.

29. Such is the lot God allots the wicked,and the heritage of his appointment from God.”
