Job 20:6

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

⁵ the joy of the wicked has been brief
and the happiness of the godless has lasted only a moment?
⁶ Though his arrogance reaches heaven,
and his head touches the clouds,
⁷ he will vanish forever like his own dung.
Those who know him will ask, “Where is he?”

above the stars of God.

in the remotest parts of the North.

in your home on the heights,

“Who can bring me down to the ground?”

if they climb up to heaven,
from there I will bring them down.
