Verse 8 is found in chapter 20 of Job. Zophar describes the brevity of the wicked person’s triumph and his inevitable downfall. His argument begins with a traditional moral observation: unjust prosperity cannot last forever. Yet as a response to Job, the speech avoids the problem he raises: there are sufferings and prosperities whose immediate relationship to moral conduct is not evident.
