Job 20:21

20:21 “Nothing is left for him to devour; ¹ 

that is why his prosperity does not last. ² 

[20:21]  ¹ tn Heb “for his eating,” which is frequently rendered “for his gluttony.” It refers, of course, to all the desires he has to take things from other people.

[20:21]  ² sn The point throughout is that insatiable greed and ruthless plundering to satisfy it will be recompensed with utter and complete loss.
