New Testament

Job 5:1-5 New International Version (NIV)

1. “Call if you will, but who will answer you? To which of the holy ones will you turn?

2. Resentment kills a fool, and envy slays the simple.

3. I myself have seen a fool taking root, but suddenly his house was cursed.

4. His children are far from safety, crushed in court without a defender.

5. The hungry consume his harvest, taking it even from among thorns, and the thirsty pant after his wealth.
