² "As God lives, who has taken away my right,
    and the Almighty,^[a] who has made my soul bitter,
³ as long as my breath is in me
    and the spirit of God is in my nostrils,
⁴ my lips will not speak falsehood,
    and my tongue will not utter deceit.
⁵ Far be it from me to say that you are right;
    until I die I will not put away my integrity from me.
⁶ I hold fast my righteousness, and will not let it go;
    my heart does not reproach me for any of my days.

⁷ "May my enemy be like the wicked,
    and may my opponent be like the unrighteous.
⁸ For what is the hope of the godless when God cuts them off,
    when God takes away their lives?
⁹ Will God hear their cry
    when trouble comes upon them?
¹⁰ Will they take delight in the Almighty?^[b]
    Will they call upon God at all times?
¹¹ I will teach you concerning the hand of God;
    that which is with the Almighty^[c] I will not conceal.
¹² All of you have seen it yourselves;
    why then have you become altogether vain?

¹³ "This is the portion of the wicked with God,
    and the heritage that oppressors receive from the Almighty:^[d]
14 If their children are multiplied, it is for the sword;
    and their offspring have not enough to eat.
¹⁵ Those who survive them the pestilence buries,
    and their widows make no lamentation.
¹⁶ Though they heap up silver like dust,
    and pile up clothing like clay—
¹⁷ they may pile it up, but the just will wear it,
    and the innocent will divide the silver.
¹⁸ They build their houses like nests,
    like booths made by sentinels of the vineyard.
¹⁹ They go to bed with wealth, but will do so no more;
    they open their eyes, and it is gone.
²⁰ Terrors overtake them like a flood;
    in the night a whirlwind carries them off.
²¹ The east wind lifts them up and they are gone;
    it sweeps them out of their place.
²² It^[e] hurls at them without pity;
    they flee from its^[f] power in headlong flight.
²³ It^[g] claps its^[h] hands at them,
    and hisses at them from its^[i] place.
