6. Even though his stature reaches to the heavensand his head touches the clouds,
7. he will perish forever, like his own excrement;those who used to see him will say, ‘Where is he?’
8. Like a dream he flies away, never again to be found,and like a vision of the night he is put to flight.
9. People who had seen him will not see him again,and the place where he was will recognize him no longer.
10. His sons must recompense the poor;his own hands must return his wealth.
11. His bones were full of his youthful vigor,but that vigor will lie down with him in the dust.
12. “If evil is sweet in his mouthand he hides it under his tongue,
13. if he retains it for himselfand does not let it go,and holds it fast in his mouth,
14. his food is turned sour in his stomach;it becomes the venom of serpents within him.
15. The wealth that he consumed he vomits up,God will make him throw it out of his stomach.
16. He sucks the poison of serpents;the fangs of a viper kill him.
