Job 14:11
New Living Translation
11 As water evaporates from a lake
and a river disappears in drought,
Isaiah 19:5
New Living Translation
5 The waters of the Nile will fail to rise and flood the fields.
The riverbed will be parched and dry.
Jeremiah 15:18
New Living Translation
18 Why then does my suffering continue?
Why is my wound so incurable?
Your help seems as uncertain as a seasonal brook,
like a spring that has gone dry.”
Job 6:15-18
New Living Translation
15 My brothers, you have proved as unreliable as a seasonal brook
that overflows its banks in the spring
16 when it is swollen with ice and melting snow.
17 But when the hot weather arrives, the water disappears.
The brook vanishes in the heat.
18 The caravans turn aside to be refreshed,
but there is nothing to drink, so they die.
