9 for we are but of yesterday and know nothing because our days upon earth are as a shadow.
10 Shall they not teach thee and tell thee and utter these words out of their heart?
11 Can the rush grow up without mire? Can the meadow grow without water?
12 Whilst it is yet in its greenness and not cut down, it withers before any other herb.
13 So are the paths of all that forget God, and the hypocrite’s hope shall perish.
14 For his hope shall be cut off, and his trust is a spider’s web.
15 He shall lean upon his house, but it shall not stand; he shall hold it fast, but it shall not endure.
