— Job 5:8 (World English Bible)
Surrounding context
whose harvest the hungry eats up, and take it even out of the thorns. The snare gapes for their substance.
For affliction doesn’t come out of the dust, neither does trouble spring out of the ground;
but man is born to trouble, as the sparks fly upward.
“But as for me, I would seek God. I would commit my cause to God,
who does great things that can’t be fathomed, marvelous things without number;
who gives rain on the earth, and sends waters on the fields;
so that he sets up on high those who are low, those who mourn are exalted to safety.
