20 All his days the wicked man suffers torment,

the ruthless man through all the years stored up for him.

20 The wicked man travaileth with pain all his days,

And the number of years is hidden to the oppressor.

20 “The wicked writhe in pain throughout their lives.

Years of trouble are stored up for the ruthless.

20 The wicked man writhes with pain all his days,

And the number of years is hidden from the oppressor.

20 The wicked suffer pain all their lives;

the cruel suffer during all the years saved up for them.

20 The wicked man travaileth with pain all his days,

Even the number of years that are laid up for the oppressor.

20 All his days the wicked man is tormented, and numbered years are allotted to the violent.

20 “The wicked person is tortured all his days. 

Only a few years are reserved for the ruthless person. 

20 A wicked man writhes in pain all his days;

only a few years are reserved for the ruthless.

20 The wicked writhe in pain all their days,

through all the years that are laid up for the ruthless.

20 “All of the wicked one’s days he is writhing,

even through the number of years that are laid up for the tyrant.

20 Sinful people always suffer pain.

Mean people suffer all their lives.

20 “The wicked man writhes in pain all his days,

And numbered are the years stored up for the ruthless.
