24He is greatly in fear of the dark day, trouble and pain overcome him:
25Because his hand is stretched out against God, and his heart is lifted up against the Ruler of all,
26Running against him like a man of war, covered by his thick breastplate; even like a king ready for the fight,
27Because his face is covered with fat, and his body has become thick;
28And he has made his resting-place in the towns which have been pulled down, in houses where no man had a right to be, whose fate was to become masses of broken walls.
29He does not get wealth for himself, and is unable to keep what he has got; the heads of his grain are not bent down to the earth.
30He does not come out of the dark; his branches are burned by the flame, and the wind takes away his bud.
