Job 20:5-7

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

⁵ that the exulting of the wicked is short,
    and the joy of the godless is but for a moment?
⁶ Even though they mount up high as the heavens,
    and their head reaches to the clouds,
⁷ they will perish forever like their own dung;
    those who have seen them will say, ‘Where are they?’
