Job 8:10-12

EasyEnglish Bible

¹⁰ But the people who lived before us can teach you.
    They can tell you the things that they have learned.
¹¹ Some plants only grow tall in wet ground.
    Reeds only grow well where there is water.
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.
