Job 5:6-11
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 5
6For disaster does not come from the dust, Nor does trouble sprout from the ground, 7For man is born for trouble, As sparks fly upward. 8'But as for me, I would seek God, And I would make my plea before God, 9Who does great and unsearchable things, Wonders without number. 10He gives rain on the earth, And sends water on the fields, 11So that He sets on high those who are lowly, And those who mourn are lifted to safety.King James Version
Chapter 5
6Although affliction cometh not forth of the dust, neither doth trouble spring out of the ground;Christian Standard Bible
7But humans are born for trouble as surely as sparks fly upward.
8However, if I were you, I would appeal to God and would present my case to him.
9He does great and unsearchable things, wonders without number.
10He gives rain to the earth and sends water to the fields.
11He sets the lowly on high, and mourners are lifted to safety.

English Standard Version
Chapter 5
6For affliction does not come from the dust, nor does trouble sprout from the ground, 7but man is born to trouble as the sparks fly upward. 8"As for me, I would seek God, and to God would I commit my cause, 9who does great things and unsearchable, marvelous things without number: 10he gives rain on the earth and sends waters on the fields; 11he sets on high those who are lowly, and those who mourn are lifted to safety.New International Version
7Yet man is born to trouble as surely as sparks fly upward.
8"But if I were you, I would appeal to God; I would lay my cause before him.
9He performs wonders that cannot be fathomed, miracles that cannot be counted.
10He provides rain for the earth; he sends water on the countryside.
11The lowly he sets on high, and those who mourn are lifted to safety.
