Unto whom alone the land was given, and no stranger passed among them.
20 २० दुष्ट मनुष्याचे सर्व दिवस वेदनात फिरवले जातात, जुलम्याचे जीवनाची वर्ष यातना भोगण्यासाठीच असतात.
The wicked man travaileth with pain all his days, even the number of years that are laid up for the oppressor.
A sound of terrors is in his ears: in prosperity the destroyer shall come upon him.
He believeth not that he shall return out of darkness, and he is waited for of the sword.
He wandereth abroad for bread: 'Where is it?' He knoweth that the day of darkness is ready at his hand.

Distress and anguish overwhelm him; they prevail against him, as a king ready to the battle.
25 २५ कारण त्याने देवाच्या विरूद्ध त्याचा हात उगारला आहे, आणि सर्वशक्तिमान देवाच्या विरूद्ध तो गर्वाने वागत आहे.
Because he hath stretched out his hand against God, and behaveth himself proudly against the Almighty;
He runneth upon him with a stiff neck, with the thick bosses of his bucklers.
Because he hath covered his face with his fatness, and made collops of fat on his loins;
And he hath dwelt in desolate cities, in houses which no man would inhabit, which were ready to become heaps.
He shall not be rich, neither shall his substance continue, neither shall their produce bend to the earth.
30 ३० त्याची काळोखापासून सुटका नाही, आग्नीने त्याच्या फांद्या सुकतील, देवाच्या मुख श्वासाने तो दूर जाईल.
He shall not depart out of darkness; the flame shall dry up his branches, and by the breath of His mouth shall he go away.

33 ३३ न पिकलेले द्राक्ष जसे अकाली गळून पडतात त्या वेलीसारखा तो होईल, जैतून झाडाच्या फुला प्रमाणे त्याची फुले गळतील.
He shall shake off his unripe grape as the vine, and shall cast off his flower as the olive.
For the company of the godless shall be desolate, and fire shall consume the tents of bribery.
They conceive mischief, and bring forth iniquity, and their belly prepareth deceit.
