Job 15:23-35
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 15
23
He wanders about for food,
saying,
‘Where
is it?
’
He knows that a day of darkness is at hand.
24
Distress and anguish terrify him,
They overpower him like a king ready for the attack,
25
Because he has reached out with his hand against God,
And is arrogant toward the Almighty.
26
He rushes headlong at Him
With his massive shield.
27
For he has covered his face with his fat,
And put fat on his waist.
28
He has lived in desolate cities,
In houses no one would inhabit,
Which are destined to become ruins.
29
He will not become rich, nor will his wealth endure;
And his property will not stretch out on the earth.
30
He will not escape from darkness;
The flame will dry up his shoot,
And he will go away by the breath of His mouth.
31
Let him not trust in emptiness, deceiving himself;
For his reward will be emptiness.
32
It will be accomplished before his time,
And his palm branch will not be green.
33
He will drop off his unripe grape like the vine,
And will cast off his flower like the olive tree.
34
For the company of the godless is barren,
And fire consumes the tents of the corrupt.
35
They conceive harm and give birth to wrongdoing,
And their mind prepares deception.'
King James Version
Chapter 15
23
He wandereth abroad for bread, saying, Where is it? he knoweth that the day of darkness is ready at his hand.
24
Trouble and anguish shall make him afraid; they shall prevail against him, as a king ready to the battle.
25
For he stretcheth out his hand against God, and strengtheneth himself against the Almighty.
26
He runneth upon him, even on his neck, upon the thick bosses of his bucklers:
27
Because he covereth his face with his fatness, and maketh collops of fat on his flanks.
28
And he dwelleth in desolate cities, and in houses which no man inhabiteth, which are ready to become heaps.
29
He shall not be rich, neither shall his substance continue, neither shall he prolong the perfection thereof upon the earth.
30
He shall not depart out of darkness; the flame shall dry up his branches, and by the breath of his mouth shall he go away.
31
Let not him that is deceived trust in vanity: for vanity shall be his recompence.
32
It shall be accomplished before his time, and his branch shall not be green.
33
He shall shake off his unripe grape as the vine, and shall cast off his flower as the olive.
34
For the congregation of hypocrites shall be desolate, and fire shall consume the tabernacles of bribery.
35
They conceive mischief, and bring forth vanity, and their belly prepareth deceit.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 15
23
He wanders about for food, asking, "Where is it?"
He knows the day of darkness is at hand.
24
Trouble and distress terrify him,
overwhelming him like a king prepared for battle.
25
For he has stretched out his hand against God
and has arrogantly opposed the Almighty.
26
He rushes headlong at him
with his thick, studded shields.
27
Though his face is covered with fat
and his waistline bulges with it,
28
he will dwell in ruined cities,
in abandoned houses destined to become piles of rubble.
29
He will no longer be rich; his wealth will not endure.
His possessions will not increase in the land.
30
He will not escape from the darkness;
flames will wither his shoots,
and by the breath of God’s mouth, he will depart.
31
Let him not put trust in worthless things, being led astray,
for what he gets in exchange will prove worthless.
32
It will be accomplished before his time,
and his branch will not flourish.
33
He will be like a vine that drops its unripe grapes
and like an olive tree that sheds its blossoms.
34
For the company of the godless will have no children,
and fire will consume the tents of those who offer bribes.
35
They conceive trouble and give birth to evil;
their womb prepares deception.
New Living Translation
Chapter 15
23
They wander around, saying, ‘Where can I find bread?’
They know their day of destruction is near.
24
That dark day terrifies them.
They live in distress and anguish,
like a king preparing for battle.
25
For they shake their fists at God,
defying the Almighty.
26
Holding their strong shields,
they defiantly charge against him.
27
'These wicked people are heavy and prosperous;
their waists bulge with fat.
28
But their cities will be ruined.
They will live in abandoned houses
that are ready to tumble down.
29
Their riches will not last,
and their wealth will not endure.
Their possessions will no longer spread across the horizon.
30
'They will not escape the darkness.
The burning sun will wither their shoots,
and the breath of God will destroy them.
31
Let them no longer fool themselves by trusting in empty riches,
for emptiness will be their only reward.
32
They will be cut down in the prime of life;
their branches will never again be green.
33
They will be like a vine whose grapes are harvested too early,
like an olive tree that loses its blossoms before the fruit can form.
34
For the godless are barren.
Their homes, enriched through bribery, will burn.
35
They conceive trouble and give birth to evil.
Their womb produces deceit.'
English Standard Version
Chapter 15
23
He wanders abroad for bread, saying, ‘Where is it?’
He knows that a day of darkness is ready at his hand;
24
distress and anguish terrify him;
they prevail against him, like a king ready for battle.
25
Because he has stretched out his hand against God
and defies the Almighty,
26
running stubbornly against him
with a thickly bossed shield;
27
because he has covered his face with his fat
and gathered fat upon his waist
28
and has lived in desolate cities,
in houses that none should inhabit,
which were ready to become heaps of ruins;
29
he will not be rich, and his wealth will not endure,
nor will his possessions spread over the earth;
30
he will not depart from darkness;
the flame will dry up his shoots,
and by the breath of his mouth he will depart.
31
Let him not trust in emptiness, deceiving himself,
for emptiness will be his payment.
32
It will be paid in full before his time,
and his branch will not be green.
33
He will shake off his unripe grape like the vine,
and cast off his blossom like the olive tree.
34
For the company of the godless is barren,
and fire consumes the tents of bribery.
35
They conceive trouble and give birth to evil,
and their womb prepares deceit."
New International Version
Chapter 15
23
He wanders about for food like a vulture;
he knows the day of darkness is at hand.
24
Distress and anguish fill him with terror;
troubles overwhelm him, like a king poised to attack,
25
because he shakes his fist at God
and vaunts himself against the Almighty,
26
defiantly charging against him
with a thick, strong shield.
27
"Though his face is covered with fat
and his waist bulges with flesh,
28
he will inhabit ruined towns
and houses where no one lives,
houses crumbling to rubble.
29
He will no longer be rich and his wealth will not endure,
nor will his possessions spread over the land.
30
He will not escape the darkness;
a flame will wither his shoots,
and the breath of God’s mouth will carry him away.
31
Let him not deceive himself by trusting what is worthless,
for he will get nothing in return.
32
Before his time he will wither,
and his branches will not flourish.
33
He will be like a vine stripped of its unripe grapes,
like an olive tree shedding its blossoms.
34
For the company of the godless will be barren,
and fire will consume the tents of those who love bribes.
35
They conceive trouble and give birth to evil;
their womb fashions deceit."
New King James Version
Chapter 15
23
He wanders about for bread,
saying,
‘Where
is it?
’
He knows that a day of darkness is ready at his hand.
24
Trouble and anguish make him afraid;
They overpower him, like a king ready for battle.
25
For he stretches out his hand against God,
And acts defiantly against the Almighty,
26
Running stubbornly against Him
With his strong, embossed shield.
27
“Though he has covered his face with his fatness,
And made
his
waist heavy with fat,
28
He dwells in desolate cities,
In houses which no one inhabits,
Which are destined to become ruins.
29
He will not be rich,
Nor will his wealth continue,
Nor will his possessions overspread the earth.
30
He will not depart from darkness;
The flame will dry out his branches,
And by the breath of His mouth he will go away.
31
Let him not trust in futile
things,
deceiving himself,
For futility will be his reward.
32
It will be accomplished before his time,
And his branch will not be green.
33
He will shake off his unripe grape like a vine,
And cast off his blossom like an olive tree.
34
For the company of hypocrites
will be
barren,
And fire will consume the tents of bribery.
35
They conceive trouble and bring forth futility;
Their womb prepares deceit.”
