Job 4:20 Context
18Behold, hee put no trust in his seruants; and his Angels hee charged with folly: 19Howe much lesse on them that dwell in houses of clay, whose foundation is in the dust, which are crushed before the moth. 20They are destroyed from morning to euening: they perish for euer, without any regarding it. 21Doeth not their excellencie which is in them, goe away? they die, euen without wisedome.

Wesley's Notes for Job 4:20
4:20 Destroyed - All the day long, there is not a moment wherein man is not sinking towards death and corruption. Perish - In reference to this present worldly life, which when once lost is never recovered. Regarding - Heb. without putting the heart to it, this is so common a thing for all men, though never so high and great, to perish in this manner, that no man heeds it, but passes it by as a general accident not worthy of observation.
