Job 8:14-16

Expanded Bible

¹⁴ ·What they hope in is easily broken [^LTheir confidence is gossamer thread];
    what they trust is like a spider’s web [^Cwithout substance].
¹⁵ They lean on ·the spider’s web [^Lits house], but it ·breaks [^Ldoes not stand].
    They grab it, but it does not hold up.
¹⁶ They are like well-watered plants in the sunshine
    that spread their roots all through the garden.
