1 Then answered Zophar the Naamathite, and saide,
2 Therefore doe my thoughts cause mee to answere, and for this I make haste.
3 I haue heard the checke of my reproach, and the spirit of my vnderstanding causeth me to answere.
4 Knowest thou not this of old, since man was placed vpon earth,
5 That the triumphing of the wicked is short, and the ioy of the hypocrite but for a moment?
6 Though his excellencie mount vp to the heauens, and his head reach vnto the clouds:
9 The eye also which saw him, shall see him no more; neither shall his place any more behold him.
10 His children shall seeke to please the poore, and his hands shall restore their goods.
11 His bones are ful of the sinne of his youth, which shall ye downe with him in the dust.
12 Though wickednes be sweet in his mouth, though hee hide it vnder his tongue;
13 Though he spare it, and forsake it not, but keepe it stil within his mouth:
14 Yet his meate in his bowels is turned, it is the gall of Aspes within him.
16 He shall sucke the poison of Aspes: the vipers tongue shall slay him.
17 Hee shall not see the riuers, the floods, the brookes of hony and butter.
20 Surely he shall not feele quietnesse in his belly, hee shall not saue of that which he desired.
21 There shall none of his meat be left, therefore shall no man looke for his goods.
24 He shall flee from the iron weapon, and the bow of steele shall strike him through.
27 The heauen shall reueale his iniquitie: and the earth shall rise vp against him.
28 The increase of his house shall depart, and his goods shall flow away in the day of his wrath.
29 This is the portion of a wicked man from God, and the heritage appointed vnto him by God.

George Obare's Job Chapter 20 comment about verse 15 on 3/12/2013, 6:25am...
It gives me hope that nothing is ever lost. The devil does not own anything, yet steals what is ours, but God causes him to return all he stole from us; wealth, marriage, love, children, houses, etc.
