18 What he toiled for he must give back uneaten;

he will not enjoy the profit from his trading.

19 For he has oppressed the poor and left them destitute;

he has seized houses he did not build.

18 That which he laboured for shall he restore, and shall not swallow it down:

According to his substance shall the restitution be, and he shall not rejoice therein.

19 Because he hath oppressed and hath forsaken the poor;

Because he hath violently taken away an house which he builded not;

18 They will give back everything they worked for.

Their wealth will bring them no joy.

19 For they oppressed the poor and left them destitute.

They foreclosed on their homes.

18 He will restore that for which he labored,

And will not swallow it down;

From the proceeds of business

He will get no enjoyment.

19 For he has oppressed and forsaken the poor,

He has violently seized a house which he did not build.

18 They must give back what they worked for without eating it;

they will not enjoy the money they made from their trading,

19 because they troubled the poor and left them with nothing.

They have taken houses they did not build.

18 That which he labored for shall he restore, and shall not swallow it down;

According to the substance that he hath gotten, he shall not rejoice.

19 For he hath oppressed and forsaken the poor;

He hath violently taken away a house, and he shall not build it up.

18 That which he laboured for shall he restore, and not swallow down; its restitution shall be according to the value, and he shall not rejoice therein. 19 For he hath oppressed, hath forsaken the poor; he hath violently taken away a house that he did not build.

18 He will give back what he earned without enjoying it. 

He will get no joy from the profits of his business 

19 because he crushed and abandoned the poor. 

He has taken by force a house that he didn’t build. 

18 He must return the fruit of his labor without consuming it;

he doesn’t enjoy the profits from his trading.

19 For he oppressed and abandoned the poor;

he seized a house he did not build.

18 They will give back the fruit of their toil,

and will not swallow it down;

from the profit of their trading

they will get no enjoyment.

19 For they have crushed and abandoned the poor,

they have seized a house that they did not build.

18 Returning the products of his toil, he will not swallow;

according to the profit of his trade, he will not enjoy,

19 for he has oppressed; he has abandoned the poor;

he has seized a house but did not build it.

18 What they worked for they must give back

before they can eat it.

They won’t enjoy what they have earned.

19 They’ve crushed poor people and left them with nothing.

They’ve taken over houses they didn’t even build.

18 “He returns what he has attained

And cannot swallow it;

As to the riches of his trading,

He cannot even enjoy them.

19 “For he has oppressed and forsaken the poor;

He has seized a house which he has not built.
