Septuagint (LXX2012)

Authoritative text

King James Version

Masoretic-derived · highlighted where altered

19[Let them be] withered upon the earth; for they have plundered the sheaves of the fatherless.
19Drought and heat consume the snow waters: so doth the grave those which have sinned.
20Then is his sin brought to remembrance, and he vanishes like a vapor of dew: but let what he has done be recompensed to him, and let every unrighteous one be crushed like rotten wood.
20The womb shall forget him; the worm shall feed sweetly on him; he shall be no more remembered; and wickedness shall be broken as a tree.
