Job 5:4-7 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

4. His children are far from deliverance, and they are crushed in the gate, and there is no deliverer—

6. Indeed, mischief does not come from the dust, and trouble does not sprout from the earth.

7. But a human being is born to trouble, and they soar aloft like sparks.
