Job 20:5
King James Version
“That the triumphing of the wicked short, and the joy of the hypocrite for a moment?”
Context
2Therefore do my thoughts cause me to answer, and for I make haste.
3I have heard the check of my reproach, and the spirit of my understanding causeth me to answer.
4Knowest thou this of old, since man was placed upon earth,
5That the triumphing of the wicked short, and the joy of the hypocrite for a moment?
6Though his excellency mount up to the heavens, and his head reach unto the clouds;
7he shall perish for ever like his own dung: they which have seen him shall say, Where he?
8He shall fly away as a dream, and shall not be found: yea, he shall be chased away as a vision of the night.
