Job 8:17-22
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 8
17His roots wrap around a rock pile, He grasps a house of stones. 18If he is removed from his place, Then it will deny him, saying, ‘I never saw you.’ 19Behold, this is the joy of His way; And out of the dust others will spring. 20Behold, God will not reject a person of integrity, Nor will He help evildoers. 21He will yet fill your mouth with laughter, And your lips with joyful shouting. 22Those who hate you will be clothed with shame, And the tent of the wicked will no longer exist.'King James Version

Chapter 8
17His roots entwine the stone heap; he looks upon a house of stones. 18If he is destroyed from his place, then it will deny him, saying, ‘I have never seen you.’ 19Behold, this is the joy of his way, and out of the soil others will spring. 20“Behold, God will not reject a blameless man, nor take the hand of evildoers. 21He will yet fill your mouth with laughter, and your lips with shouting. 22Those who hate you will be clothed with shame, and the tent of the wicked will be no more.”New International Version
Chapter 8
17it entwines its roots around a pile of rocks and looks for a place among the stones. 18But when it is torn from its spot, that place disowns it and says, 'I never saw you.'
19Surely its life withers away, and from the soil other plants grow.
20Surely God does not reject one who is blameless or strengthen the hands of evildoers.
21He will yet fill your mouth with laughter and your lips with shouts of joy.
22Your enemies will be clothed in shame, and the tents of the wicked will be no more.'
