Job 8:11-19

The Fleeting Hope of the Wicked

Job 8:11-19
11
Can a rush grow without myre? or can ye grasse growe without water?
12
Though it were in greene and not cutte downe, yet shall it wither before any other herbe.
13
So are the paths of al that forget God, and the hypocrites hope shall perish.
14
His confidence also shalbe cut off, and his trust shalbe as the house of a spyder.
15
He shall leane vpon his house, but it shall not stand: he shall holde him fast by it, yet shall it not endure.
16
The tree is greene before the sunne, and the branches spread ouer the garden thereof.
17
The rootes thereof are wrapped about the fountaine, and are folden about ye house of stones.
18
If any plucke it from his place, and it denie, saying, I haue not seene thee,
19
Beholde, it will reioyce by this meanes, that it may growe in another molde.
