Job 5:2-7

2For wrath killeth the foolish man, and envy slayeth the silly one.1 3I have seen the foolish taking root: but suddenly I cursed his habitation. 4His children are far from safety, and they are crushed in the gate, neither is there any to deliver them . 5Whose harvest the hungry eateth up, and taketh it even out of the thorns, and the robber swalloweth up their substance.

6Although affliction cometh not forth from the dust, neither doth trouble spring out of the ground;2 7Yet man is born to trouble, as the sparks fly upward.34
