2 “Therefore my thoughts answer me, even by reason of my haste that is in me.

14 yet his food in his bowels is turned. It is cobra venom within him.

17 He will not look at the rivers, the flowing streams of honey and butter.
May not he look on streams rivers of torrents of honey and curd.
18 He will restore that for which he labored, and will not swallow it down. He will not rejoice according to the substance that he has gotten.

For - not he knows quiet in belly his among desired [things] his not he delivers.
21 There was nothing left that he didn’t devour, therefore his prosperity will not endure.
There not [is] a survivor to devour he there-fore not it will endure prosperity his.
22 In the fullness of his sufficiency, distress will overtake him. The hand of everyone who is in misery will come on him.
When is full sufficiency his it will be distress to him every hand of a sufferer it will come to him.
23 When he is about to fill his belly, God will cast the fierceness of his wrath on him. It will rain on him while he is eating.
May he be - [about] to fill belly his he will send on him [the] burning of anger his and he will send rain on him in bowel[s] his.
24 He will flee from the iron weapon. The bronze arrow will strike him through.
He will flee from a weapon of iron it will cut through him a bow of bronze.
25 He draws it out, and it comes out of his body. Yes, the glittering point comes out of his liver. Terrors are on him.
He will draw [it] out and it came out from [the] back and lightning from gall-bladder his it will come on him terrors.
26 All darkness is laid up for his treasures. An unfanned fire will devour him. It will consume that which is left in his tent.
