Job 27:13 Cross References - MSTC

¹³ saying, 'This is that portion that the wicked shall have of God, and the heritage that Tyrants shall receive of the Almighty'?

²⁰ The ungodly despaireth all the days of his life, and the number of a tyrant's years is unknown. ²¹ A fearful sound is ever in his ears, and when it is peace yet feareth he destruction. ²² He believeth never to be delivered out of darkness; the sword is always before his eyes. ²³ When he goeth forth to get his living, he thinketh plainly, that the day of darkness is at hand. ²⁴ Sorrow and carefulness make him afraid, and compass him round about, like as it where a king with his host ready to the battle. ²⁵ For he hath stretched out his hand against God, and armed himself against the Almighty. ²⁶ He runneth proudly upon him, and with a stiff neck fighteth he against him: ²⁷ whereas he covereth his face with fatness, and maketh his body well liking. ²⁸ Therefore shall his dwelling be in desolate cities, and in houses which no man inhabits, but are become heaps of stones. ²⁹ He shall not be rich, neither shall his substance continue, nor increase upon earth. ³⁰ He shall never come out of darkness, the flame shall dry up his branches, with the blast of the mouth of God shall he be taken away. ³¹ He will never apply himself to faithfulness and truth, so sore is he deceived with vanity. ³² He shall perish, before his time be worn out, and his hand shall not be green. ³³ He shall be plucked off as an untimely grape from the vine, and shall let his flower fall, as the olive doth. ³⁴ For the congregation of hypocrites is unfruitful, and the fire shall consume the houses of such as are greedy to receive gifts. ³⁵ He conceiveth travail, he beareth mischief, and his body bringeth forth deceit."

¹⁹ And why? He hath oppressed the poor, and not helped them: houses hath he spoiled, and not builded them. ²⁰ His belly could never be filled; therefore shall he perish in his covetousness. ²¹ He devoured so greedily that he left nothing behind; therefore his goods shall not prosper. ²² Though he had plenteousness of everything, yet was he poor, and therefore he is but a wretch on every side. ²³ "For though the wicked have never so much to fill his belly, yet God shall send his wrath upon him, and cause his indignation to rain over him: ²⁴ so that if he flee the iron weapons, he shall be shot with the steel bow. ²⁵ The arrow shall be taken forth, and go out at his back; and a glistering sword through the gall of him. Fear shall come upon him. ²⁶ There shall no darkness be able to hide him. An unkindled fire shall consume him; and look, what remaineth in his house, it shall be destroyed. ²⁷ The heaven shall declare his wickedness, and the earth shall take part against him. ²⁸ The substance that he hath in his house, shall be taken away and perish, in the day of the LORD's wrath. ²⁹ This is the portion that the wicked shall have of God, and the heritage that he may look for of the LORD."

³ As for the ungodly and he that joineth himself to the company of wicked doers: shall not destruction and misery come upon him?

⁶ Upon the ungodly he shall rain snares, fire, brimstone, storm and tempest: this shall be their portion to drink.

⁵ "Now, for the comfortless troubles' sake of the needy, and because of the deep sighing of the poor, I will arise," saith the LORD, "and will help them, and set them at rest."

²² See that thou rob not the poor because he is weak, and oppress not the simple in judgment; ²³ for the LORD himself will defend their cause, and do violence unto them that have used violence.

¹³ Again, as for the ungodly, it shall not be well with him, neither shall he prolong his days: but even as a shadow, so shall he be that feareth not God.

¹¹ But woe be unto the ungodly and unrighteous, for they shall be rewarded after their works.

⁵ I will come and punish you, and I myself will be a swift witness against the witches, against the adulterers, against false swearers: yea, and against those that wrongfully keep back the hireling's duty, which vex the widows and the fatherless, and oppress the stranger, and fear not me, sayeth the LORD of Hosts.

⁴ Behold, the hire of the laborers which have reaped down your fields — which hire is of you kept back by fraud — crieth: and the cries of them which have reaped, are entered into the ears of the Lord of Hosts. ⁵ Ye have lived in pleasure on the earth and in wantonness. Ye have nourished your hearts, as in a day of slaughter. ⁶ Ye have condemned and have killed the just, and he hath not resisted you.

⁹ The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptation, and how to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment for to be punished:
