25 for he stretches out his hand against God,and vaunts himself against the Almighty,
26 defiantly charging against himwith a thick, strong shield!
27 Because he covered his face with fat,and made his hips bulge with fat,
28 he lived in ruined townsand in houses where no one lives,where they are ready to crumble into heaps.
29 He will not grow rich,and his wealth will not endure,nor will his possessions spread over the land.
30 He will not escape the darkness;a flame will wither his shootsand he will depart by the breath of God’s mouth.
31 Let him not trust in what is worthless,deceiving himself;for worthlessness will be his reward.
