6Though his excellency mount up to the heavens, and his head reach unto the clouds;

8He shall fly away as a dream, and shall not be found: yea, he shall be chased away as a vision of the night.

15He hath swallowed down riches, and he shall vomit them up again: God shall cast them out of his belly.
