19 because they oppressed and neglected the poorand seized houses someone else had built.
20 Their greed is never satisfied.
21 When they eat, there is nothing left over,but now their prosperity comes to an end.
22 At the height of their successall the weight of misery will crush them.
23 Let them eat all they want!God will punish them in fury and anger.
24 When they try to escape from an iron sword,a bronze bow will shoot them down.
25 Arrows stick through their bodies;the shiny points drip with their blood,and terror grips their hearts.
