Job 20:5 in Context — Job 20
3 Eu ouvi a repreensão que me envergonha; mas o espírito desde o meu entendimento responderá por mim.
4 Por acaso não sabes isto, [que foi] desde a antiguidade, desde que o ser humano foi posto no mundo?
5 Que o júbilo dos perversos é breve, e a alegria do hipócrita [dura apenas] um momento?
6 Ainda que sua altura subisse até o céu, e sua cabeça chegasse até as nuvens,
7 [Mesmo assim] com o seu excremento perecerá para sempre; os que houverem o visto, dirão: Onde ele está?
