Bible verse
Though he flees from an iron weapon, a bronze-tipped arrow will pierce him.
Job 20:24 · BSB
The verses around it, from Job 20.
20 Because his appetite is never satisfied, he cannot escape with his treasure.
21 Nothing is left for him to consume; thus his prosperity will not endure.
22 In the midst of his plenty, he will be distressed; the full force of misery will come upon him.
23 When he has filled his stomach, God will vent His fury upon him, raining it down on him as he eats.
24 Though he flees from an iron weapon, a bronze-tipped arrow will pierce him.
25 It is drawn out of his back, the gleaming point from his liver. Terrors come over him.
26 Total darkness is reserved for his treasures. A fire unfanned will consume him and devour what is left in his tent.
27 The heavens will expose his iniquity, and the earth will rise up against him.
28 The possessions of his house will be removed, flowing away on the day of God’s wrath.
