Job 8:13-18

13So are the paths of 1all who forget God; And the 2hope of the godless will perish,14His confidence is fragile, And his trust is a 3spider’s 4web.15He depends on his 5house, but it does not stand; He holds on to it, but it does not endure.16He 6flourishes before the sun, And his 7shoots spread out over his garden.17His roots wrap around a rock pile, He 8grasps a house of stones.18If he is 9removed from 10his place, Then it will deny him, saying, ‘11I never saw you.’
