Job 27:14

Job Continues His Final Speech

¹³ “This is the portion of a wicked man from God,
And the inheritance which tyrants receive from the Almighty.
¹⁴ “Though his sons are many, they are destined for the sword;
And his descendants will not be satisfied with bread.
¹⁵ “His survivors will be buried because of the plague,
And their widows will not be able to weep.

By the Sword
