Job 20:4-6

EasyEnglish Bible

⁴ I am sure that you know this fact.
It has been true from long ago,
    since people first lived on the earth.
⁵ You know that a wicked person is only happy for a short time.
    His joy continues only for a moment.
⁶ He may think that he is more important than other people.
    He may be proud of the honour that he receives.
