Job 8:11-22
11Can the rush growH7685 up without mire?Can the flag growH7685 without waterH4325?12Whilst it is yetH5750 in its greenness, and not cut down,It withereth before any other herb.13SoH3651 are the pathsH734 of all that forgetH7911 GodH410;And the hopeH8615 of the godlessH2611 man shall perishH6:14Whose confidenceH4009 shall break in sunder,And whose trustH4009 is a spider’sH5908 web.15He shall leanH8172 upon his houseH1004, but it shall not standH5975:He shall holdH2388 fast thereby, but it shall not endure.16He is green before the sunH8121,And his shootsH3127 goH3318 forthH3318 over his gardenH1593.17His rootsH8328 are wrapped about the stoneH68-heap,He beholdeth the place of stonesH68.18If he be destroyed from his placeH4725,Then it shall denyH3584 him, saying, I have not seenH7200 thee.19Behold, this is the joyH4885 of his wayH1870;And out of the earthH6083 shall othersH312 springH6779.20Behold, GodH410 will not cast away a perfectH8535 man,Neither will he uphold the evil-doers.21He will yet fillH4390 thy mouthH6310 with laughterH7814,And thy lipsH8193 with shoutingH8643.22They that hateH8130 thee shall be clothedH3847 with shameH1322;And the tentH168 of the wickedH7563 shall be no more.
