Job 8:11-15

11Can papyrus grow tall where there is no marsh? Can reeds thrive without water?

12While still growing and uncut, they wither more quickly than grass.

13Such is the destiny of all who forget God; so perishes the hope of the godless.

14What they trust in is fragile The meaning of the Hebrew for this word is uncertain. ; what they rely on is a spider’s web.

15They lean on the web, but it gives way; they cling to it, but it does not hold.
