27 “Though his face is covered with fat

and his waist bulges with flesh,

28 he will inhabit ruined towns

and houses where no one lives,

houses crumbling to rubble.

27 because he has covered his face with his fat

and gathered fat upon his waist

28 and has lived in desolate cities,

in houses that none should inhabit,

which were ready to become heaps of ruins;

27 “These wicked people are heavy and prosperous;

their waists bulge with fat.

28 But their cities will be ruined.

They will live in abandoned houses

that are ready to tumble down.

27 “Though he has covered his face with his fatness,

And made his waist heavy with fat,

28 He dwells in desolate cities,

In houses which no one inhabits,

Which are destined to become ruins.

27 “Although the faces of the wicked are thick with fat,

and their bellies are fat with flesh,

28 they will live in towns that are ruined,

in houses where no one lives,

which are crumbling into ruins.

27 Because he hath covered his face with his fatness,

And gathered fat upon his loins;

28 And he hath dwelt in desolate cities,

In houses which no man inhabited,

Which were ready to become heaps;

27 For he hath covered his face with his fatness, and gathered fat upon his flanks. 28 And he dwelleth in desolate cities, in houses that no man inhabiteth, which are destined to become heaps.

27 “His face is bloated with fat, 

and he is fat around the waist. 

28 He lives in ruined cities 

where no one dwells, 

in houses that are doomed to be piles of rubble. 

27 Though his face is covered with fat

and his waistline bulges with it,

28 he will dwell in ruined cities,

in abandoned houses destined to become piles of rubble.

27 because they have covered their faces with their fat,

and gathered fat upon their loins,

28 they will live in desolate cities,

in houses that no one should inhabit,

houses destined to become heaps of ruins;

27 “Because he has covered his face with his fat

and has gathered fat upon his loins,

28 he will dwell in desolate cities,

in houses that they should not inhabit,

which are destined for rubble.

27 “Their faces are very fat.

Their stomachs hang out.

28 They’ll live in towns that have been destroyed.

They’ll live in houses where no one else lives.

The houses will crumble to pieces.

27 “For he has covered his face with his fat

And made his thighs heavy with flesh.

28 “He has lived in desolate cities,

In houses no one would inhabit,

Which are destined to become ruins.
