Job - Chapter: 20


20:1	Then answered Zophar the Naamathite, and saide,
20:2	Therefore doe my thoughts cause mee to answere, and for this I make haste.
20:3	I haue heard the checke of my reproach, and the spirit of my vnderstanding causeth me to answere.
20:4	Knowest thou not this of old, since man was placed vpon earth,
20:5	That the triumphing of the wicked is short, and the ioy of the hypocrite but for a moment?
20:6	Though his excellencie mount vp to the heauens, and his head reach vnto the clouds:
20:7	Yet he shall perish for euer, like his owne doung: they which haue seene him, shall say, Where is he?
20:8	He shall flie away as a dreame, and shall not be found: yea he shalbe 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 seeke to please the poore, and his hands shall restore their goods.
20:11	His bones are ful of the sinne of his youth, which shall ye downe with him in the dust.
20:12	Though wickednes be sweet in his mouth, though hee hide it vnder his tongue;
20:13	Though he spare it, and forsake it not, but keepe it stil within his mouth:
20:14	Yet his meate in his bowels is turned, it is the gall of Aspes within him.
20:15	He hath swallowed downe riches, and hee shall vomite them vp againe: God shall cast them out of his belly.
20:16	He shall sucke the poison of Aspes: the vipers tongue shall slay him.
20:17	Hee shall not see the riuers, the floods, the brookes of hony and butter.
20:18	That which he laboured for, shall he restore, & shall not swallow it downe: according to his substance shall the restitution bee, and hee shall not reioyce therein.
20:19	Because hee hath oppressed, and hath forsaken the poore; because he hath violently taken away an house which he builded not:
20:20	Surely he shall not feele quietnesse in his belly, hee shall not saue of that which he desired.
20:21	There shall none of his meat be left, therefore shall no man looke for his goods.
20:22	In the fulnesse of his sufficiencie, he shalbe in straites: euery hand of the wicked shall come vpon him.
20:23	When he is about to fill his belly, God shall cast the furie of his wrath vpon him, and shall raine it vpon him while he is eating.
20:24	He shall flee from the iron weapon, and the bow of steele shall strike him through.
20:25	It is drawen, and commeth out of the body; yea the glistering sword commeth out of his gall; terrours are vpon him.
20:26	All darknesse shalbe hid in his secret places: a fire not blowen shall consume him; it shall goe ill with him that is left in his tabernacle.
20:27	The heauen shall reueale his iniquitie: and the earth shall rise vp 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 vnto him by God.


20:1	Then aunswered Sophar the Naamathite, and saide
20:2	For the same cause do my thoughtes compell me to aunswere, and therefore, make haste
20:3	I haue sufficiently heard the checking of my reproofe, therefore the spirite of myne vnderstanding causeth me to aunswere
20:4	Knowest thou not this of olde, and since God plaged man vpon earth
20:5	That the gladnesse of the vngodlie hath ben short, and that the ioy of hypocrites continued but the twinckling of an eye
20:6	Though he be magnified vp to the heauen, so that his head reacheth vnto the cloudes
20:7	Yet at a turne he perisheth for euer, insomuch that they which haue seene him, shall say, Where is he
20:8	He shall vanishe as a dreame, so that he can no more be founde, and shal passe away as a vision in the night
20:9	So that the eye which sawe him before, shal haue no more sight of him, and his place shall know him no more
20:10	His children shalbe faine to agree with the poore, and his handes shall restore their goodes
20:11	From his youth his bones are full of pleasures, but now shall it lye downe within him in the earth
20:12	When wickednesse was sweete in his mouth, he hyd it vnder his tongue
20:13	That he fauoured, that would he not forsake, but kept it close in his throte
20:14	The bread that he did eate, is turned to the poyson of serpentes within his bodye
20:15	The riches that he deuoured shall he parbreake againe: for God shall drawe them out of his belly
20:16	He shall sucke the gall of serpentes, and the adders tongue shall slay him
20:17	So that he shall no more see the ryuers and brookes of hony and butter
20:18	The thing he hath laboured for, shall he restore, and shall not eate of it: great trauaile shall he make for riches, but he shall not enioy them
20:19	And why? he hath oppressed the poore, and not helped them: houses hath he spoyled, and not builded them
20:20	Because he could not perceaue when his belly was well, through his greedie desire he shall not escape
20:21	There shall none of his meate be left, therefore shall no man loke for his goodes
20:22	When he had plenteousnesse of euery thing, yet was he poore, though he was helped on euery side
20:23	And it shall come to passe, that wherewith he purposed to fill his belly, God shall powre the furie of his wrath theron, and shall cause his indignation to raigne vpon him, and vpon his meate
20:24	He shall flee from the iron weapon, and the bowe of steele shall strike him through
20:25	The arowe is taken foorth and gone out of the quiuer, and a glistering sword through the gall of him: so feare shall come vpon him
20:26	All darknesse shalbe hid in their secrete places, an vnkindled fire shal consume him: and loke what remaineth in his house, it shalbe destroyed
20:27	The heauen shal declare his wickednesse, and the earth shall take part against him
20:28	The substaunce that he hath in his house, shalbe taken away and perishe in the day of the Lordes wrath
20:29	This is the portion that the wicked man shal haue of God, and the heritage that he may loke for of God, because of his wordes


20:1	Then answered Zophar the Naamathite and saide,
20:2	Doubtlesse my thoughts cause me to answere, and therefore I make haste.
20:3	I haue heard the correction of my reproch: therefore the spirite of mine vnderstanding causeth me to answere.
20:4	Knowest thou not this of olde? and since God placed man vpon the earth,
20:5	That the reioycing of the wicked is short, and that the ioy of hypocrites is but a moment?
20:6	Though his excellencie mount vp to the heauen, and his head reache vnto the cloudes,
20:7	Yet shall hee perish for euer, like his dung, and they which haue seene him, shall say, Where is hee?
20:8	He shall flee away as a dreame, and they shall not finde him, and shall passe away as a vision of the night,
20:9	So that the eye which had seene him, shall do so no more, and his place shall see him no more.
20:10	His children shall flatter the poore, and his hands shall restore his substance.
20:11	His bones are full of the sinne of his youth, and it shall lie downe with him in the dust.
20:12	When wickednesse was sweete in his mouth, and he hid it vnder his tongue,
20:13	And fauoured it, and would not forsake it, but kept it close in his mouth,
20:14	Then his meat in his bowels was turned: the gall of Aspes was in the middes of him.
20:15	He hath deuoured substance, and hee shall vomit it: for God shall drawe it out of his bellie.
20:16	He shall sucke the gall of Aspes, and the vipers tongue shall slay him.
20:17	He shall not see the riuers, nor the floods and streames of honie and butter.
20:18	He shall restore the labour, and shall deuoure no more: euen according to the substance shalbe his exchange, and he shall enioy it no more.
20:19	For he hath vndone many: he hath forsaken the poore, and hath spoyled houses which he builded not.
20:20	Surely he shall feele no quietnes in his bodie, neither shall he reserue of that which he desired.
20:21	There shall none of his meate bee left: therefore none shall hope for his goods.
20:22	When he shalbe filled with his abundance, he shalbe in paine, and the hand of all the wicked shall assaile him.
20:23	He shall be about to fill his belly, but God shall sende vpon him his fierce wrath, and shall cause to rayne vpon him, euen vpon his meate.
20:24	He shall flee from the yron weapons, and the bow of steele shall strike him through.
20:25	The arrowe is drawen out, and commeth forth of the body, and shineth of his gall, so feare commeth vpon him.
20:26	All darkenes shalbe hid in his secret places: the fire that is not blowen, shall deuoure him, and that which remaineth in his tabernacle, shalbe destroyed.
20:27	The heauen shall declare his wickednes, and the earth shall rise vp against him.
20:28	The increase of his house shall go away: it shall flow away in the day of his wrath.
20:29	This is the portion of the wicked man from God, and the heritage that he shall haue of God for his wordes.
