Job 20:20 - The Message

"Such God-denying people are never content with what they have
      or who they are;
   their greed drives them relentlessly.
They plunder everything
   but they can’t hold on to any of it.
Just when they think they have it all, disaster strikes;
   they’re served up a plate full of misery.
When they’ve filled their bellies with that,
   God gives them a taste of his anger,
   and they get to chew on that for a while.
As they run for their lives from one disaster,
   they run smack into another.
They’re knocked around from pillar to post,
   beaten to within an inch of their lives.
They’re trapped in a house of horrors,
   and see their loot disappear down a black hole.
Their lives are a total loss—
   not a penny to their name, not so much as a bean.
God will strip them of their sin-soaked clothes
   and hang their dirty laundry out for all to see.
Life is a complete wipeout for them,
   nothing surviving God’s wrath.
There! That’s God’s blueprint for the wicked—
   what they have to look forward to."
