Job 8:16 - Adam Clarke

Job 8:16

Compare all

14 Whose confidence shall be cut off,
And whose trust is¹ a spider’s web.

15 ^aHe leans on his house, but it does not stand.
He holds it fast, but it does not endure.

16 He grows green in the sun,
And his branches spread out in his garden.

17 His roots wrap around the rock heap,
And look for a place in the stones.

18 ^aIf he is destroyed from his place,
Then it will deny him, saying, ‘I have not seen you.’

19 “Behold, this is the joy of His way,
And ^aout of the earth others will grow.

20 Behold, ^aGod will not cast away the blameless,
Nor will He uphold the evildoers.

21 He will yet fill your mouth with laughing,
And your lips with¹ rejoicing.
