Job 8:16

World English Bible (WEB)

He is green before the sun. His shoots go out along his garden.

In context

14 whose confidence will break apart, whose trust is a spider’s web.

15 He will lean on his house, but it will not stand. He will cling to it, but it will not endure.

16 He is green before the sun. His shoots go out along his garden.

17 His roots are wrapped around the rock pile. He sees the place of stones.

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