Jay P. Green's Literal Translation 1993
| 27:1 | And continued the uplifting of his discourse, and said: |
| 27:2 | As God lives, He has taken away my judgment; yea, the Almighty has made my soul bitter. |
| 27:3 | As long as my breath is in me, and the spirit of God is in my nostrils, |
| 27:4 | my lips shall not speak wickedness, nor my tongue utter deceit. |
| 27:5 | Far be it from me that I should justify you. Until I die, I shall not retract my integrity from me. |
| 27:6 | I hold fast by my righteousness, and I will not abandon it; my heart shall not shame me any of my days. |
| 27:7 | Let my enemy be like the wicked and he who rises against me as the perverse. |
| 27:8 | For what is the hope of the ungodly when He cuts off, when God pulls out his soul? |
| 27:9 | Will God hear his cry when distress comes upon him? |
| 27:10 | Will he delight in the Almighty? Will he call on God at every time? |
| 27:11 | I will teach you by the hand of God; that which is with the Almighty I will not hide. |
| 27:12 | Behold, all of you have seen it yourselves; when then do you become vain with this vanity? |
| 27:13 | This is the portion of a wicked man with God, and the inheritance of ruthless men that they shall receive from the Almighty. |
| 27:14 | If his sons become numerous, the sword is for them; and his offspring shall not be satisfied with bread. |
| 27:15 | Those remaining of him shall be buried in death, and his widows shall not weep. |
| 27:16 | Though he heaps up silver like the dust, and prepares clothing like the clay; |
| 27:17 | he may prepare, but the just shall put it on; and the innocent shall divide the silver. |
| 27:18 | He builds his house like a moth, and like a booth that a watchman makes. |
| 27:19 | The rich man shall lie down, but he shall not be gathered; he opens his eyes, and he is not. |
| 27:20 | Fears shall overtake him like waters; a tempest steals him away in the night. |
| 27:21 | The east wind lifts him up and he is gone; for it whirls him out of his place. |
| 27:22 | For it will hurl at him, and will not spare; from its hand he will surely flee. |
| 27:23 | He shall clap His hands at him, and shall hiss him from his place. |
