“As drought and heat consume the melting snow, so Sheol steals those who have sinned.”
Job 24:19 (BSB)
Context Reading
17For to them, deep darkness is their morning; surely they are friends with the terrors of darkness! 18They are but foam on the surface of the water; their portion of the land is cursed, so that no one turns toward their vineyards. 19As drought and heat consume the melting snow, so Sheol steals those who have sinned. 20The womb forgets them; the worm feeds on them; they are remembered no more. So injustice is broken like a tree. 21They prey on the barren and childless, and show no kindness to the widow.
