King James Version

Job 20:6-11

6Though his excellency mount up to the heavens, and his head reach unto the clouds;1

7Yet he shall perish for ever like his own dung: they which have seen him shall say, Where is 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.

9The eye also which saw him shall see him no more; neither shall his place any more behold him.

10His children shall seek to please the poor, and his hands shall restore their goods.2

11His bones are full of the sin of his youth, which shall lie down with him in the dust.
