Job 5:5-7
English Standard Version Anglicised

5 The hungry eat his harvest,
    and he takes it even out of thorns,[a]
    and the thirsty pant[b] after his[c] wealth.
6 For affliction does not come from the dust,
    nor does trouble sprout from the ground,
7 but man is (A)born to trouble
    as the sparks fly upwards.
