Job 8:11-19

The Fleeting Hope of the Wicked

Job 8:11-19
11
Can the rush be green without moisture? or sedge bush grow without water?
12
When it is yet in flower, and is not plucked up with the hand, it withereth before all herbs.
13
Even so are the ways of all that forget God, and the hope of the hypocrite shall perish:
14
His folly shall not please him, and his trust shall be like the spider's web.
15
He shall lean upon his house, and it shall not stand: he shall prop it up, and it shall not rise:
16
He seemeth to have moisture before the sun cometh; and at his rising, his blossom shall shoot forth.
17
His roots shall be thick upon a heap of stones; and among the stones he shall abide.
18
If one swallow him up out of his place, he shall deny him, and shall say: I know thee not.
19
For this is the joy of his way, that others may spring again out of the earth.
