Job 20:6 - Forerunner Commentary

Job 20:6

4 “Do you not know this of ^aold,
Since man was placed on earth,

5 ^aThat the triumphing of the wicked is short,
And the joy of the hypocrite is but for a ^bmoment?

6 ^aThough his haughtiness mounts up to the heavens,
And his head reaches to the clouds,

7 Yet he will perish forever like his own refuse;
Those who have seen him will say, ‘Where is he?’

8 He will fly away ^alike a dream, and not be found;
Yes, he ^bwill be chased away like a vision of the night.

9 The eye that saw him will see him no more,
Nor will his place behold him anymore.
