Job 8:18-20
EasyEnglish Bible

18 But finally, someone pulls those weeds out of the ground.
When that happens,
    nobody knows that the weeds were ever there.
19 People who are like weeds only have that kind of joy.

20 Listen! God never turns away from a man who is not guilty.
    Nor will he ever help wicked people.
