Job 24:24

To be translated as above. The wicked are exalted, rise high in life, and suddenly, with no pain, they die; comp. ch. Job 21:13; Psalms 73:4. And when they are brought low at last in death, it is a natural death that overtakes them, like that of all others, men in general; and they are cut off (or, wither) like the tops of the ears of corn, not prematurely, but having attained to full ripeness; comp. Job 5:26.
