Job 20:8 in Context — Job 20
6 Quand il s’élèverait jusqu’aux cieux, Et que sa tête toucherait aux nues,
7 Il périra pour toujours comme son ordure, Et ceux qui le voyaient diront: Où est-il?
8 Il s’envolera comme un songe, et on ne le trouvera plus; Il disparaîtra comme une vision nocturne;
9 L’œil qui le regardait ne le regardera plus, Le lieu qu’il habitait ne l’apercevra plus.
10 Ses fils seront assaillis par les pauvres, Et ses mains restitueront ce qu’il a pris par violence.
