Job 8:19
17 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.’
Surely this is the joy of his way; yet others will spring from the dust.
20 Behold, God does not reject the blameless, nor will He strengthen the hand of evildoers.
21 He will yet fill your mouth with laughter, and your lips with a shout of joy.
Dette ble sagt til Israel i en bestemt tid, så det er lurt å lese det sammen med teksten rundt. Les gjerne versene rundt også, for sammenhengen gir ofte mer enn ett vers alene.
