New English Translation
Job 5:2-7
2For wrath kills the foolish person, and anger slays the silly one.
3I myself have seen the fool taking root, but suddenly I cursed his place of residence.
4His children are far from safety, and they are crushed at the place where judgment is rendered, nor is there anyone to deliver them.
5The hungry eat up his harvest, and take it even from behind the thorns, and the thirsty swallow up their fortune.
6For evil does not come up from the dust, nor does trouble spring up from the ground,
7but people are born to trouble, as surely as the sparks fly upward.
