¹⁷He will not enjoy the streams, the rivers flowing with honey and cream.

¹⁸He must return the fruit of his labor without consuming it; he cannot enjoy the profits of his trading.

¹⁹For he has oppressed and forsaken the poor; he has seized houses he did not build.

²⁰Because his appetite is never satisfied, he cannot escape with his treasure.

²¹Nothing is left for him to consume; thus his prosperity will not endure.
