World English Bible
"He shall lean on his house, but it shall not stand. He shall cling to it, but it shall not endure."
— Job 8:15, World English Bible
“He shall lean upon his house, but it shall not stand: he shall hold it fast, but it shall not endure.”
“He shall lean upon his house, but it shall not stand: He shall hold fast thereby, but it shall not endure. ”
“He leans against his house but it does not hold up, he takes hold of it but it does not stand.”
“He shall lean upon his house, and it shall not stand: he shall prop it up, and it shall not rise:”
“He is looking to his family for support, but it is not there; he puts his hope in it, but it comes to nothing.”
“He shall lean upon his house, but it shall not stand: he shall hold it fast, but it shall not endure.”
While it is yet in its greenness, not cut down, it withers before any other reed.
So are the paths of all who forget God. The hope of the godless man shall perish,
Whose confidence shall break apart, Whose trust is a spider's web.
He shall lean on his house, but it shall not stand. He shall cling to it, but it shall not endure.
He is green before the sun. His shoots go forth over his garden.
His roots are wrapped around the rock pile. He sees the place of stones.
If he is destroyed from his place, then it shall deny him, saying, 'I have not seen you.'
