Job 8:11-18

¶“Can the papyrus grow up without a marsh? Can the rushes or reed grass grow without water? “While it is still green (in flower) and not cut down, Yet it withers before any other plant [when without water]. “So are the paths of all who forget God; And the hope of the godless will perish, For his confidence is fragile and breaks, And his trust is [like] a spider’s web. “He trusts in his house, but it does not stand; He holds tightly to it, but it does not endure. “He thrives and prospers [like a green plant] before the sun, And his branches spread out over his garden. “His [godless] roots are wrapped around a pile of rocks, And he gazes at a house of stones. “If he is snatched from his place [in the garden], Then his place will forget him, saying, ‘I have never seen you.’
