Job 27:17

15 His survivors will be buried by the plague, and their widows will not weep for them.

16 Though he heaps up silver like dust and piles up a wardrobe like clay,

what he lays up, the righteous will wear, and his silver will be divided by the innocent.

18 The house he built is like a moth’s cocoon, like a hut set up by a watchman.

19 He lies down wealthy, but will do so no more; when he opens his eyes, all is gone.

Dette ble sagt til Israel i en bestemt tid, så det er lurt å lese det sammen med teksten rundt. Les gjerne versene rundt også, for sammenhengen gir ofte mer enn ett vers alene.
