20:1 | Then answered Zophar the Naamathite, and said, |
20:2 | Therefore do my thoughts cause me to answer, and for this I make haste. |
20:3 | I have heard the check of my reproach, and the spirit of my understanding causeth me to answer. |
20:4 | Knowest thou not this of old, since man was placed upon earth, |
20:5 | That the triumphing of the wicked is short, and the joy of the hypocrite but for a moment? |
20:6 | Though his excellency mount up to the heavens, and his head reach unto the clouds; |
20:7 | Yet he shall perish for ever like his own dung: they which have seen him shall say, Where is he? |
20:8 | He shall fly away as a dream, and shall not be found: yea, he shall be chased away as a vision of the night. |
20:9 | The eye also which saw him shall see him no more; neither shall his place any more behold him. |
20:10 | His children shall seek to please the poor, and his hands shall restore their goods. |
20:11 | His bones are full of the sin of his youth, which shall lie down with him in the dust. |
20:12 | Though wickedness be sweet in his mouth, though he hide it under his tongue; |
20:13 | Though he spare it, and forsake it not; but keep it still within his mouth: |
20:14 | Yet his meat in his bowels is turned, it is the gall of asps within him. |
20:15 | He hath swallowed down riches, and he shall vomit them up again: God shall cast them out of his belly. |
20:16 | He shall suck the poison of asps: the viper's tongue shall slay him. |
20:17 | He shall not see the rivers, the floods, the brooks of honey and butter. |
20:18 | 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. |
20:19 | Because he hath oppressed and hath forsaken the poor; because he hath violently taken away an house which he builded not; |
20:20 | Surely he shall not feel quietness in his belly, he shall not save of that which he desired. |
20:21 | There shall none of his meat be left; therefore shall no man look for his goods. |
20:22 | In the fulness of his sufficiency he shall be in straits: every hand of the wicked shall come upon him. |
20:23 | When he is about to fill his belly, God shall cast the fury of his wrath upon him, and shall rain it upon him while he is eating. |
20:24 | He shall flee from the iron weapon, and the bow of steel shall strike him through. |
20:24 | 他要躲避鐵器、銅弓的箭要將他射透。 |
20:24 | 他要躲避铁器。铜弓的箭要将他射透。 |
isa:24:18 | And it shall come to pass, that he who fleeth from the noise of the fear shall fall into the pit; and he that cometh up out of the midst of the pit shall be taken in the snare: for the windows from on high are open, and the foundations of the earth do shake. |
jer:48:44 | He that fleeth from the fear shall fall into the pit; and he that getteth up out of the pit shall be taken in the snare: for I will bring upon it, even upon Moab, the year of their visitation, saith the LORD. |
amo:5:19 | As if a man did flee from a lion, and a bear met him; or went into the house, and leaned his hand on the wall, and a serpent bit him. |
2sa:22:35 | He teacheth my hands to war; so that a bow of steel is broken by mine arms. |
psm:38:2 | For thine arrows stick fast in me, and thy hand presseth me sore. |
psm:45:5 | Thine arrows are sharp in the heart of the king's enemies; whereby the people fall under thee. |

20:25 | It is drawn, and cometh out of the body; yea, the glittering sword cometh out of his gall: terrors are upon him. |
20:26 | All darkness shall be hid in his secret places: a fire not blown shall consume him; it shall go ill with him that is left in his tabernacle. |
20:27 | The heaven shall reveal his iniquity; and the earth shall rise up against him. |
20:28 | The increase of his house shall depart, and his goods shall flow away in the day of his wrath. |
20:29 | This is the portion of a wicked man from God, and the heritage appointed unto him by God. |
