Job 15:28 in Context — Job 15

26 Corre contra ele com [dureza] de pescoço, e como seus escudos grossos e levantados.

27 Porque cobriu seu rosto com sua gordura, e engordou as laterais de seu corpo.

28 E habitou em cidades desoladas cidades, em casas desabitadas; que estavam prestes a desmoronar.

29 Ele não enriquecerá, nem seu patrimônio subsistirá, nem suas riquezas se estenderão pela terra.

30 Não escapará das trevas; a chama secará seus ramos, e ao sopro de sua boca desparecerá.
