Job 8:12-16 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

12. While still uncut shoots,they would dry up quicker than any other plant.

13. Such is the destiny of all who forget God;the hope of the godless will perish.

14. His source of confidence is fragile; what he trusts in is a spider’s web.

15. He leans on his web, but it doesn’t stand firm.He grabs it, but it does not hold up.

16. He is a well-watered plant in the sunshine;his shoots spread out over his garden.
