Job 27:13–17 · Berean Standard Bible

13 This is the wicked man’s portion from God— the heritage the ruthless receive from the Almighty.

14 Though his sons are many, they are destined for the sword; and his offspring will never have enough food.

15 His survivors will be buried by the plague, and their widows will not weep for them.

16 Though he heaps up silver like dust and piles up a wardrobe like clay,

17 what he lays up, the righteous will wear, and his silver will be divided by the innocent.
