Job 8:15 in context

  1. 13So are the paths of all who forget God.
    The hope of the godless man will perish,
  2. 14Whose confidence will break apart,
    Whose trust is a spider’s web.
  3. 15He will lean on his house, but it will not stand.
    He will cling to it, but it will not endure.
  4. 16He is green before the sun.
    His shoots go out along his garden.
  5. 17His roots are wrapped around the rock pile.
    He sees the place of stones.
