Job 5:2-7

2For wrathH3708 killethH2026 the foolish manH191, and envyH7068 slayethH4191 the silly oneH6601.1 3I have seenH7200 the foolishH191 taking rootH8327: but suddenlyH6597 I cursedH5344 his habitationH5116. 4His childrenH1121 are farH7368 from safetyH3468, and they are crushedH1792 in the gateH8179, neither is there any to deliverH5337 them . 5Whose harvestH7105 the hungryH7457 eateth upH398, and takethH3947 it even outH413 of the thornsH6791, and the robberH6782 swalloweth upH7602 their substanceH2428.

6Although afflictionH205 cometh not forthH3318 from the dustH6083, neither doth troubleH5999 spring outH6779 of the groundH127;2 7Yet manH120 is bornH3205 to troubleH5999, as the sparksH1121H7565 flyH5774 upwardH1361.34
