Read in context

Job 20:25–29 · Berean Standard Bible

25 It is drawn out of his back, the gleaming point from his liver. Terrors come over him.

26 Total darkness is reserved for his treasures. A fire unfanned will consume him and devour what is left in his tent.

27 The heavens will expose his iniquity, and the earth will rise up against him.

28 The possessions of his house will be removed, flowing away on the day of God’s wrath.

29 This is the wicked man’s portion from God, the inheritance God has appointed him.”
