Job 5:6-8
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
6 For not from dust does mischief come,
nor from the soil does trouble sprout.
7 Human beings beget mischief
as sparks[a] fly upward.
8 In your place, I would appeal to God,
and to God I would state my plea.
Job 5:6-8
New International Version
6 For hardship does not spring from the soil,
nor does trouble sprout from the ground.(A)
7 Yet man is born to trouble(B)
as surely as sparks fly upward.
8 “But if I were you, I would appeal to God;
I would lay my cause before him.(C)
