Job 8:14-16
Evangelical Heritage Version

14 His source of confidence is fragile.
He trusts in something as fragile as a spider’s web.
15 He leans on his web, but it does not support him.
He grasps it, but it does not hold him up.
16 He is a thriving plant flourishing in the sunshine,
    spreading its shoots over the garden.

14 What they trust in is fragile[a];

    they cling to it, but it does not hold.(C)
16 They are like a well-watered plant in the sunshine,
    spreading its shoots(D) over the garden;(E)
