23 He wanders from place to place, looking for food. But he knows a dark day is coming, which he brought on himself.
24 He lives in fear, with worry and suffering threatening him like a king ready to attack.
25 That is because that evil man shook his fist at God, refusing to obey. He dared to attack God All-Powerful,
26 like a soldier with a thick, strong shield who runs at his enemy to strike him in the neck.
27 He might be rich and fat,
28 but his town will be ruined; his home will be destroyed; his house will be empty.
29 He will not be rich for long. His wealth will not last. His crops will not grow large.
