Lamentations 2:5-6

Job 8:13-18
So[ are] the paths of all that forget God; and the hypocrite’s hope shall perish:Whose hope shall be cut off, and whose trust[ shall be] a spider’s web.He shall lean upon his house, but it shall not stand: he shall hold it fast, but it shall not endure.He[ is] green before the sun, and his branch shooteth forth in his garden.His roots are wrapped about the heap,[ and] seeth the place of stones.If he destroy him from his place, then[ it] shall deny him,[ saying], I have not seen thee.
