Job 20:6

A Wicked Person's Joy Is Short, His Pain Long

⁵
That the triumphing of the wicked is short,
And the joy of the godless is only for a moment?
⁶ 
“Though his pride reaches the heavens
And his head touches the clouds,
⁷
Yet he perishes forever like his own refuse;
Those who have seen him will say, ‘Where is he?’
