New Living Translation

Job 27:15-23 New Living Translation (NLT)

15. Those who survive will die of a plague,and not even their widows will mourn them.

16. “Evil people may have piles of moneyand may store away mounds of clothing.

17. But the righteous will wear that clothing,and the innocent will divide that money.

18. The wicked build houses as fragile as a spider’s web,as flimsy as a shelter made of branches.

19. The wicked go to bed richbut wake to find that all their wealth is gone.

20. Terror overwhelms them like a flood,and they are blown away in the storms of the night.

21. The east wind carries them away, and they are gone.It sweeps them away.

22. It whirls down on them without mercy.They struggle to flee from its power.

23. But everyone jeers at themand mocks them.
