Job 20:5-9

⁵The good times of the wicked are short-lived; godless joy is only momentary.

⁶The evil might become world famous, strutting at the head of the celebrity parade,

⁷But still end up in a pile of dung. Acquaintances look at them with disgust and say, "What''s that?''

⁸They fly off like a dream that can''t be remembered, like a shadowy illusion that vanishes in the light.

⁹Though once notorious public figures, now they''re nobodies, unnoticed, whether they come or go.
