Job 24:23-25

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²³ God hath given him place for penance, and he abuseth it unto pride: but his eyes are upon his ways.

²⁴ They are lifted up for a little while and shall not stand, and shall be brought down as all things, and shall be taken away, and as the tops of the ears of corn they shall be broken.

²⁵ And if it be not so, who can convince me that I have lied, and set my words before God?
