## Job 8:17-19 in Context (Verses 14–22 KJV)
 
 [14 ](/kjv/job/8/14) Whose hope shall be cut off, and whose trust *shall be* a spider’s web.*
 
 [15 ](/kjv/job/8/15) He shall lean upon his house, but it shall not stand: he shall hold it fast, but it shall not endure.
 
 [16 ](/kjv/job/8/16) He *is* green before the sun, and his branch shooteth forth in his garden.
 
 [17 ](/kjv/job/8/17) His roots are wrapped about the heap, *and* seeth the place of stones.
 
 [18 ](/kjv/job/8/18) If he destroy him from his place, then *it* shall deny him, *saying*, I have not seen thee.
 
 [19 ](/kjv/job/8/19) Behold, this *is* the joy of his way, and out of the earth shall others grow.
 
 [20 ](/kjv/job/8/20) Behold, God will not cast away a perfect *man*, neither will he help the evil doers:**
 
 [21 ](/kjv/job/8/21) Till he fill thy mouth with laughing, and thy lips with rejoicing.*
 
 [22 ](/kjv/job/8/22) They that hate thee shall be clothed with shame; and the dwelling place of the wicked shall come to nought.*
 
[Job 7](/kjv/job/7) [Job 9](/kjv/job/9)
