Job 24:18-25

21st Century King James Version

¹⁸ “He is swift as the waters; their portion is cursed on the earth; he beholdeth not the way of the vineyards.

¹⁹ Drought and heat consume the snow waters; so doth the grave those who have sinned.

²⁰ The womb shall forget him, the worm shall feed sweetly on him; he shall be no more remembered, and wickedness shall be broken as a tree.

²¹ He evilly treateth the barren that beareth not, and doeth not good to the widow.

²² He draweth also the mighty with his power; he riseth up, and no man is sure of life.

²³ Though it be given him to be in safety whereon he resteth, yet his eyes are upon their ways.

²⁴ They are exalted for a little while, but are gone and brought low; they are taken out of the way as all others, and cut off as the tops of the ears of corn.

²⁵ And if it be not so now, who will make me a liar and make my speech worth nothing?”
