Job 8:15-17

EasyEnglish Bible

¹⁵ If they expect something like that to help them,
    it will fall down and leave them.
If they take hold of it,
    it will not keep them safe.
¹⁶ People who turn away from God are like weeds.
When there is plenty of water and the sun shines on them,
    they grow all over the garden.
¹⁷ Their roots grow around a heap of stones.
    They have a strong home among the rocks.
