Job 5:5-7
American Standard Version

5 Whose harvest the hungry eateth up,
And taketh it even out of the thorns;
And [a]the snare gapeth for their substance.
6 For [b]affliction cometh not forth from the dust,
Neither doth trouble spring out of the ground;
7 But man is born unto trouble,
As [c]the sparks fly upward.

Job 5:5-7
New International Version

5 The hungry consume his harvest,(A)
    taking it even from among thorns,
    and the thirsty pant after his wealth.
6 For hardship does not spring from the soil,
    nor does trouble sprout from the ground.(B)
7 Yet man is born to trouble(C)
    as surely as sparks fly upward.
