Job 5:1-6 Good News Bible Catholic Edition (GNBDK)

1. Call out, Job. See if anyone answers.Is there any angel to whom you can turn?

2. To worry yourself to death with resentmentwould be a foolish, senseless thing to do.

3. I have seen fools who looked secure,but I called down a sudden curse on their homes.

4. Their children can never find safety;no one stands up to defend them in court.

5. Hungry people will eat the fool's crops —even the grain growing among thorns —and thirsty people will envy his wealth.

6. Evil does not grow in the soil,nor does trouble grow out of the ground.
