24 Suffering and pain terrify them. Their troubles overpower them, like a king ready to attack his enemies.

26 They boldly charge against him with their thick, strong shields.
27 "Their faces are very fat. Their stomachs hang out.
28 They'll live in towns that have been destroyed. They'll live in houses where no one else lives. The houses will crumble to pieces.
29 They won't be rich anymore. Their wealth won't last. Their property will no longer spread out over the land.
