Holy Scripture

Job 20:27

A church father on this verse
“Ver. 27. The heavens shall reveal his iniquity; and the earth shall rise up against him. 37. What do we understand by 'the heavens,' but the righteous, and what by 'the earth,' but sinners? And hence in the Lord's prayer we pray; Thy will be done on earth, as it is in heaven, meaning this, that the will of our Creator…”
Gregory the Dialogist, 7th c. — Morals on the Book of Job, Book XV

25And let the arrow pierce through his body; And let the stars be against his dwelling place: Let terrors come upon him.

26And let all darkness wait for him: A fire that burns not out shall consume him; And let a stranger plague his house.

28Let destruction bring his house to an end; Let a day of wrath come upon him.
