Bible verse
They die in an instant, in the middle of the night. The people convulse and pass away; the mighty are removed without human hand.
Job 34:20 · BSB
The verses around it, from Job 34.
16 If you have understanding, hear this; listen to my words.
17 Could one who hates justice govern? Will you condemn the just and mighty One,
18 who says to kings, ‘You are worthless!’ and to nobles, ‘You are wicked,’
19 who is not partial to princes and does not favor rich over poor? For they are all the work of His hands.
20 They die in an instant, in the middle of the night. The people convulse and pass away; the mighty are removed without human hand.
21 For His eyes are on the ways of a man, and He sees his every step.
22 There is no darkness or deep shadow where the workers of iniquity can hide.
23 For God need not examine a man further or have him approach for judgment.
24 He shatters the mighty without inquiry and sets up others in their place.
