Job 20:5-7
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
5 The triumph of the wicked is short
and the joy of the impious but for a moment?(A)
6 Though his pride mount up to the heavens
and his head reach to the clouds,
7 Yet he perishes forever like the dung he uses for fuel,
and onlookers say, “Where is he?”(B)
