2 He comes out klike a flower and withers;
he flees like a shadow and continues not.
13 “This is mthe portion of a wicked man with God,
and the heritage that oppressors receive from the Almighty:
14 If his children are multiplied, it is for the sword,
and his descendants have not enough bread.
15 Those who survive him the pestilence buries,
and his nwidows do not weep.
16 Though he oheap up silver like dust,
and pile up clothing like clay,
17 he may pile it up, pbut the righteous will wear it,
and the innocent will divide the silver.
18 He builds his qhouse like a moth’s,
like a booth that a watchman makes.
19 rHe goes to bed rich, but will do so no more;
he opens his eyes, and his wealth is gone.
20 Terrors overtake him like a flood;
in the night a whirlwind carries him off.
21 The east wind lifts him up and he is sgone;
it sweeps him out of his place.
22 It1 hurls at him without pity;
he flees from its2 power in headlong flight.
23 It tclaps its hands at him
and hisses at him from its place.
