21 Nothing is left for him to consume;(A)
therefore, his prosperity will not last.
22 At the height of his success[a] distress will come to him;(B)
the full weight of misery[b] will crush him.
23 When he fills his stomach,
God will send His burning anger against him,
raining(C) it down on him while he is eating.[c]
