²⁰ `All days of the wicked he is paining himself, And few years have been laid up for the terrible one.

¹ Wherefore from the Mighty One Times have not been hidden, And those knowing Him have not seen His days.

¹³ This `is' the portion of wicked man with God, And the inheritance of terrible ones From the Mighty they receive.

³ Thou turnest man unto a bruised thing, And sayest, Turn back, ye sons of men.

⁴ For a thousand years in Thine eyes `are' as yesterday, For it passeth on, yea, a watch by night.

¹² To number our days aright let `us' know, And we bring the heart to wisdom.

³ This `is' an evil among all that hath been done under the sun, that one event `is' to all, and also the heart of the sons of man is full of evil, and madness `is' in their heart during their life, and after it -- unto the dead.

¹⁹ and I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast many good things laid up for many years, be resting, eat, drink, be merry.

²⁰ `And God said to him, Unthinking one! this night thy soul they shall require from thee, and what things thou didst prepare -- to whom shall they be?

²¹ so `is' he who is treasuring up to himself, and is not rich toward God.'

²² for we have known that all the creation doth groan together, and doth travail in pain together till now.

¹ Go, now, ye rich! weep, howling over your miseries that are coming upon `you';

² your riches have rotted, and your garments have become moth-eaten;

³ your gold and silver have rotted, and the rust of them for a testimony shall be to you, and shall eat your flesh as fire. Ye made treasure in the last days!

⁴ lo, the reward of the workmen, of those who in-gathered your fields, which hath been fraudulently kept back by you -- doth cry out, and the exclamations of those who did reap into the ears of the Lord of Sabaoth have entered;

⁵ ye did live in luxury upon the earth, and were wanton; ye did nourish your hearts, as in a day of slaughter;

⁶ ye did condemn -- ye did murder the righteous one, he doth not resist you.
