The Scriptures 1998

Job 15:25-32 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

25. Because he has stretched out his hand against Ěl, and acts mightily against the Almighty.

26. He runs against Him defiantly, with thick-bossed shields.

27. For he has covered his face with his fatness, and he has put layers of fat on his loins.

28. But he dwells in ruined cities, in houses which no one lives in, which have been ready to become heaps.

29. He shall not be rich, and his wealth shall not rise, and his possessions shall not overspread the earth.

30. He does not turn away from darkness. The flame dries up his branches, and he turns aside by the breath of His mouth.

31. Let him not trust in falsehood, deceiving himself, for falsehood is his reward.

32. Before his day it is accomplished, and his branch shall not be green.
