1-2 Job, you upset me. Now I'm impatient to answer.
3 What you have said is an insult,but I know how to reply to you.
4 Surely you know that from ancient times,when human beings were first placed on earth,
5 no wicked people have been happy for long.
6 They may grow great, towering to the sky,so great that their heads reach the clouds,
7 but they will be blown away like dust.Those who used to know themwill wonder where they have gone.
8 They will vanish like a dream, like a vision at night,and never be seen again.
