Job 8:14 Context
12Whilest it is yet in his greennesse, and not cut downe, it withereth before any other herbe. 13So are the paths of all that forget God, and the hypocrites hope shall perish: 14Whose hope shall be cut off, and whose trust shall be a spiders web. 15He shall leane vpon his house, but it shall not stand: he shal hold it fast, but it shall not endure. 16He is greene before the sunne, and his branch shooteth forth in his garden.
