Job 8:13-18
13So are the paths of 1all who forget God; And the 2hope of the godless will perish,14Whose confidence is fragile, And whose trust a 3spider’s 4web.15He 5trusts in his 6house, but it does not stand; He holds fast to it, but it does not endure.16He 78thrives before the sun, And his 9shoots spread out over his garden.17His roots wrap around a rock pile, He 10grasps a house of stones.18If he is 11removed from 12his place, Then it will deny him, saying, ‘13I never saw you.’
