Job 8:17

15 He leans on his web, but it gives way; he holds fast, but it does not endure.

16 He is a well-watered plant in the sunshine, spreading its shoots over the garden.

His roots wrap around the rock heap; he looks for a home among the stones.

18 If he is uprooted from his place, it will disown him, saying, ‘I never saw you.’

19 Surely this is the joy of his way; yet others will spring from the dust.
