Job 20:11 “Don’t you even know the basics, how things have been since the earliest days, when Adam and Eve were first placed on earth? The good times of the wicked are short-lived; godless joy is only momentary His bones are full of the sin of his youth, Which shall lie down with him in the dust. “Don’t you even know the basics, how things have been since the earliest days, when Adam and Eve were first placed on earth? The good times of the wicked are short-lived; godless joy is only momentary His bones are full of the sin of his youth, Which shall lie down with him in the dust. His bones are full of his youthful vigor, But it lies down with him in the dust. They had the strength of their youth in their bones, but it will lie with them in the dust of death. His bones are full of his youth, But it shall lie down with him in the dust. The youthful vigor that fills his bones will lie with him in the dust. His bones are full of his youthful vigor, But it will lie down with him in the dust. “His bones are full of youthful strength But it lies down with him in the dust. Though they are young, their bones will lie in the dust. His bones are full of his youthful vigor, but it will lie down with him in the dust.

Job 20:4-11 The Message (MSG)

“Don’t you even know the basics, how things have been since the earliest days, when Adam and Eve were first placed on earth? The good times of the wicked are short-lived; godless joy is only momentary. The evil might become world famous, strutting at the head of the celebrity parade, But still end up in a pile of dung. Acquaintances look at them with disgust and say, ‘What’s that?’ They fly off like a dream that can’t be remembered, like a shadowy illusion that vanishes in the light. Though once notorious public figures, now they’re nobodies, unnoticed, whether they come or go. Their children will go begging on skid row, and they’ll have to give back their ill-gotten gain. Right in the prime of life, and youthful and vigorous, they’ll die.
