Job 8:17
Young's Literal Translation
Previous Chapter Previous Verse Full Chapter Next Verse Next Chapter
14 Whose confidence is loathsome, And the house of a spider his trust.
15 He leaneth on his house -- and it standeth not: He taketh hold on it -- and it abideth not.
16 Green he [is] before the sun, And over his garden his branch goeth out.
17 By a heap his roots are wrapped, A house of stones he looketh for.
18 If [one] doth destroy him from his place, Then it hath feigned concerning him, I have not seen thee!
19 Lo, this [is] the joy of his way, And from the dust others spring up.`
20 Lo, God doth not reject the perfect, Nor taketh hold on the hand of evil doers.
