Job 5:3
1 “Call out if you please, but who will answer? To which of the holy ones will you turn?
2 For resentment kills a fool, and envy slays the simple.
I have seen a fool taking root, but suddenly his house was cursed.
4 His sons are far from safety, crushed in court without a defender.
5 The hungry consume his harvest, taking it even from the thorns, and the thirsty pant after his wealth.
