Bible Read Job 20

Job 20:5

Berean Standard Bible (BSB)

the triumph of the wicked has been brief and the joy of the godless momentary?

In context

3 I have heard a rebuke that insults me, and my understanding prompts a reply.

4 Do you not know that from antiquity, since man was placed on the earth,

5 the triumph of the wicked has been brief and the joy of the godless momentary?

6 Though his arrogance reaches the heavens, and his head touches the clouds,

7 he will perish forever, like his own dung; those who had seen him will ask, ‘Where is he?’
