Job 5:3-5

International Standard Version

³ “I myself saw a fool becoming established,
    but I suddenly cursed where he lived.^[a]
4 His children are far from deliverance;
    they’ll be maltreated before they leave home,^[b]
        with no one to rescue them.
⁵ Then the hungry will devour his harvest,
    snatching it even from the midst of thorns,
        while the thirsty covet their wealth.
