Job 4:10

Judgment

8 As I have observed, those who plow iniquity and those who sow trouble reap the same.

9 By the breath of God they perish, and by the blast of His anger they are consumed.

The lion may roar, and the fierce lion may growl, yet the teeth of the young lions are broken.

11 The old lion perishes for lack of prey, and the cubs of the lioness are scattered.

12 Now a word came to me secretly; my ears caught a whisper of it.
