Job 5:8 in Context — Job 5

6 Porque a aflição não procede do pó da terra, nem a opressão brota do chão.

7 Mas o ser humano nasce para a opressão, assim como as faíscas das brasas se levantam a voar.

8 Porém eu buscaria a Deus, e a ele confiaria minha causa;

9 [Pois] ele é o que faz coisas grandiosas e incompreensíveis, e inúmeras maravilhas.

10 Ele é o que dá a chuva sobre a face da terra, e envia águas sobre os campos.
