“He is a well-watered plant in the sunshine, spreading its shoots over the garden.”
Job 8:16 (BSB)
Context Reading
14His confidence is fragile; his security is in a spider’s web. 15He leans on his web, but it gives way; he holds fast, but it does not endure. 16He is a well-watered plant in the sunshine, spreading its shoots over the garden. 17His roots wrap around the rock heap; he looks for a home among the stones. 18If he is uprooted from his place, it will disown him, saying, ‘ I never saw you.’
