Job 8:16-19

NSB(i) 16 »He is like a well-watered plant in the sunshine, spreading its shoots over the garden. 17 »It entwines its roots around a pile of rocks and looks for a place among the stones. 18 »When it is torn from its spot, that place disowns it and says: ‘I never saw you.’ 19 »Its life withers away and other plants grow from the soil.
