Job 8:18-20

New Catholic Bible

¹⁸ But if someone uproots him from his place,
    it will disown him, saying, ‘I have never seen you.’
¹⁹ There he lies, rotting along the roadside,^[a]
    and others will sprout forth from the soil.
²⁰ “Be assured, God will not reject a blameless person,
    nor will he grasp the hand of the wrongdoer.
