Job 20:6-8

New International Reader's Version

⁶ Their pride might reach all the way up to the heavens.
    Their heads might touch the clouds.
⁷ But they will disappear forever,
    like the waste from their own bodies.
Anyone who has seen them will say,
    ‘Where did they go?’
⁸ Like a dream they will fly away.
    They will never be seen again.
    They will be driven away like visions in the night.
