Job 20:5‑29• 5The exultation of the wicked is short, and the joy of the ungodly man but for a moment?
6Though his height mount up to the heavens, and his head reach unto the clouds,
7Like his own dung doth he perish for ever; they which have seen him shall say, Where is he?
8He flieth away as a dream, and is not found; and is chased away as a vision of the night.

12Though wickedness be sweet in his mouth and he hide it under his tongue,
13Though he spare it, and forsake it not, but keep it within his mouth,
14His food is turned in his bowels; it is the gall of asps within him.
15He hath swallowed down riches, but he shall vomit them up again: *God shall cast them out of his belly.
16He shall suck the poison of asps; the viper's tongue shall kill him.
17He shall not see streams, rivers, brooks of honey and butter.
18That which he laboured for shall he restore, and not swallow down; its restitution shall be according to the value, and he shall not rejoice therein.

 Another character is here which was necessary to complete the character of antichrist; that is, the combination of kingly power in Israel with spiritual pretension....the second beast, or false prophet, in the Revelation symbolizes this same personage. Notably he has two horns like the lamb. There is a double character of power. (2 Samuel 15 by W. Kelly)
