Job 8:17-19

Christian Standard Bible Anglicised

¹⁷ His roots are intertwined around a pile of rocks.
He looks for a home among the stones.
¹⁸ If he is uprooted^[a] from his place,
it will deny knowing him, saying, ‘I never saw you.’^(A)
19 Surely this is the joy of his way of life;
yet others will sprout from the dust.
