Job 8:12-14

EasyEnglish Bible

¹² If the water is no longer there,
    they will quickly die.
They will die before they are ready for people to cut them.
    They become useless more quickly than grass.
¹³ People who turn away from God are like those plants.
    Their hope quickly disappears.
¹⁴ They trust in useless things to help them.
    Those things are as weak as a spider's web.^[a]
