20 Zophar the Minaean answered:
2“Now this does rouse my soul,
my heart is stirred,
3to listen to your insults and excuses--
an empty answer to my arguments!
4Know you not that from of old,
ever since man was in the world,
5the sinner never sings for long,
and godless men have shortlived joy?
6Though he may tower in triumph to the skies,
although his head may touch the very clouds,
7he shall be swept away like his own dung,
till those who knew him ask, ‘Where is he?’
8He disappears like a dream--no trace of him--
he vanishes like a vision of the night;
11when manly vigour fills his frame,
he and his manly vigour go to dust;
10he leaves his children poor,
his sons have to disgorge his plunder.
12Though sin is a sweet morsel in his mouth,
though he rolls it under his tongue,
13loth to let it go,
keeping it still on his palate,
14yet the food turns to venom in his stomach,
to the poison of asps;
16asps shall sting him with their tongues,
and he sucks in poison.
15He has to vomit the wealth he has swallowed;
God makes him eject it.
17He shall not feed on milk from the meadows,
on honey or on butter from the pastures;
18his swelling hoards bring him no happiness,
he has no joy, for all his trafficking.
19As he was hard upon the poor,
and seized on houses that he never built,
20as his greed knew no pause,
he shall not save one thing that he desired;
21as nothing ever escaped his grasp,
his own. prosperity shall not last;
22for all his wealth, he finds himself in straits,
exposed to the full force of misery.
23God lets his anger loose at him,
and rains on him his wrath!
24He flies from men in iron mail,
and is shot down by a bow of bronze;
25the arrow comes out at his back,
the point driven through his entrails;
death’s terrors close on him,
26deep darkness is his doom.
A fire that no man lit consumes him,
burning up all he leaves at home;
28his well-stored house is swept to ruin,
accursed in the day of wrath divine.
27Heaven lays bare his guilt,
earth rises to denounce him.
29This is what God bestows upon a sinner,
this is what God awards a godless man.”
