Job 8:15 in Context — Job 8

13 Assim são os caminhos de todos os que esquecem de Deus; e a esperança do corrupto perecerá;

14 Sua esperança será frustrada, e sua confiança será como a teia de aranha.

15 Ele se apoiará em sua casa, mas ela não ficará firme; ele se apegará a ela, mas ela não ficará de pé.

16 Ele está bem regado diante do sol, e seus ramos brotam por cima de sua horta;

17 Suas raízes se entrelaçam junto à fonte, olhando para o pedregal.
