Job 8:14-16

The Voice

¹⁴    His confidence breaks,
        for he trusts in the tenuous threads of a spider’s web.^[a]
¹⁵    When he leans into his house of silken threads for support,
        it won’t hold;
    Though his arms grab to steady him,
        it will break—he will fall and never get back up.
¹⁶    Still the godless appears to be a hardy plant,
        thriving in full sun, sending his shoots across the garden.
