1 And Zophar the Naamathite answers and says:

2 “Therefore my thoughts cause me to answer, || And because of my sensations in me.

3 I hear the discipline of my shame, || And the spirit of my understanding causes me to answer:

4 Have you known this from antiquity? Since the placing of man on earth?

5 That the singing of the wicked [is] short, || And the joy of the profane for a moment,

6 Though his excellence goes up to the heavens, || He strikes his head against a cloud—

7 He perishes as his own dung forever, || His beholders say, Where [is] he?
