Bible in Basic English
All his wealth is stored up for the dark: a fire not made by man sends destruction on him, and on everything in his tent.
The heavens make clear his sin, and the earth gives witness against him.
The produce of his house is taken away into another country, like things given into the hands of others in the day of wrath.
This is the reward of the evil man, and the heritage given to him by God.
— Job 20:26-1964, Bible in Basic English
“All darkness shall be hid in his secret places: a fire not blown shall consume him; it shall go ill with him that is left in his tabernacle. The heaven shall reveal his iniquity; and the earth shall rise up against him. The increase of his house shall depart, and his goods shall flow away in the day of his wrath. This is the portion of a wicked man from God, and the heritage appointed unto him by God. ”

The heavens shall reveal his iniquity, And the earth shall rise up against him. The increase of his house shall depart; His goodsshall flow away in the day of his wrath. This is the portion of a wicked man from God, And the heritage appointed unto him by God. ”

This is the portion of a wicked man from God, the heritage appointed to him by God."”
“Total darkness waits to receive his treasures; a fire which has not been kindled will consume him and devour what is left in his tent.

Such is the lot God allots the wicked, and the heritage of his appointment from God.””
“All darkness is hid in his secret places: a fire that is not kindled shall devour him, he shall be afflicted when left in his tabernacle. The heavens shall reveal his iniquity, and the earth shall rise up against him. The offspring of his house shall be exposed, he shall be pulled down in the day of God's wrath. This is the portion of a wicked man from God, and the inheritance of his doings from the Lord. ”

God gives him his desire, and sends the heat of his wrath on him, making it come down on him like rain.
He may go in flight from the iron spear, but the arrow from the bow of brass will go through him;
He is pulling it out, and it comes out of his back; and its shining point comes out of his side; he is overcome by fears.
