Job 20:5-9

Leeser(i) 5 That the triumphal shouting of the wicked is ever of but a recent date, and the joy of the hypocrite endureth only for a moment. 6 Though his exaltation should mount up to the heavens, and his head should reach unto the clouds; 7 Yet when he but turneth round will he vanish for ever; those who have seen him will say, Where is he? 8 Like a dream will he fly away, and men will find him no more; yea, he will be chased away like a vision of the night. 9 If an eye have surveyed him, it will not do so again, and it will not behold him any more in his place.
