18:019:026 And though after my skin worms destroy
this body, yet in my
flesh
shall I see God:
18:019:027 Whom I shall see for myself, and mine eyes
shall behold, and
not
another; though my reins be consumed within me.
18:019:028 But ye should say, Why persecute we him,
seeing the root of
the
matter is found in me?
18:019:029 Be ye afraid of the sword: for wrath
bringeth the punishments
of
the sword, that ye may know there is a judgment.
18:020:001 Then answered Zophar the Naamathite, and said,
18:020:002 Therefore do my thoughts cause me to answer,
and for this I
make
haste.
18:020:003 I have heard the check of my reproach,
and the spirit of my
understanding
causeth me to answer.
18:020:004 Knowest thou not this of old, since man was placed upon earth,
18:020:005 That the triumphing of the wicked is short,
and the joy of the
hypocrite
but for a moment?
18:020:006 Though his excellency mount up to the heavens,
and his head
reach
unto the clouds;
18:020:007 Yet he shall perish for ever like his own
dung: they which
have
seen him shall say, Where is he?
18:020:008 He shall fly away as a dream, and shall
not be found: yea, he
shall
be chased away as a vision of the night.
18:020:009 The eye also which saw him shall see him
no more; neither
shall
his place any more behold him.
18:020:010 His children shall seek to please the poor,
and his hands
shall
restore their goods.
18:020:011 His bones are full of the sin of his youth,
which shall lie
down
with him in the dust.
18:020:012 Though wickedness be sweet in his mouth,
though he hide it
under
his tongue;
18:020:013 Though he spare it, and forsake it not;
but keep it still
within
his mouth:
18:020:014 Yet his meat in his bowels is turned, it
is the gall of asps
within
him.
18:020:015 He hath swallowed down riches, and he shall
vomit them up
again:
God shall cast them out of his belly.
18:020:016 He shall suck the poison of asps:
the viper’s tongue shall
slay
him.
18:020:017 He shall not see the rivers, the floods,
the brooks of honey
and
butter.
18:020:018 That which he laboured for shall he restore,
and shall not
swallow
it down: according to his substance shall the
restitution
be, and he shall not rejoice therein.
18:020:019 Because he hath oppressed and hath forsaken
the poor; because
he
hath violently taken away an house which he builded
not;
18:020:020 Surely he shall not feel quietness in his
belly, he shall not
save
of that which he desired.
