Job 8:16-22 ▼

16 He [is] green before the sun, || And over his garden his branch goes out.

17 His roots are wrapped by a heap, || He looks for a house of stones.

18 If [one] destroys him from his place, || Then it has feigned concerning him, || I have not seen you!

19 Behold, this [is] the joy of His way, || And from the dust others spring up.

20 Behold, God does not reject the perfect, || Nor takes hold on the hand of evildoers.

21 While He fills your mouth with laughter, || And your lips with shouting,

22 Those hating you put on shame, || And the tent of the wicked is not!”
