Job 20:1-5

1Then Zophar the Naamathite replied:

2“My troubled thoughts prompt me to answer because I am greatly disturbed.

3I hear a rebuke that dishonors me, and my understanding inspires me to reply.

4“Surely you know how it has been from of old, ever since mankind was placed on the earth,

5that the mirth of the wicked is brief, the joy of the godless lasts but a moment.
