27 Because he hath covered his face with [a]his fatness, and hath collops in his flank.
28 Though he dwell [b]in desolate cities, and in houses which no man inhabiteth, but are become heaps,
29 He shall not be rich, neither shall his substance continue, neither shall he prolong the [c]perfection thereof in the earth.
