Job 5:7–8

7 Yet 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.

7 but 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,

7 Yet man is born unto trouble,

As the sparks fly upward.

8 I would seek unto God,

And unto God would I commit my cause:

7 People are born for trouble

as readily as sparks fly up from a fire.

8 “If I were you, I would go to God

and present my case to him.

7 People produce trouble

as surely as sparks fly upward.

8 “But if I were you, I would call on God

and bring my problem before him.

7 But man is born unto trouble,

As the sparks fly upward.

8 But as for me, I would seek unto God,

And unto God would I commit my cause;

7 For man is born to trouble, as the sparks fly upwards. 8 But as for me I will seek unto •God, and unto God commit my cause;

7 But a person is born for trouble as surely as sparks fly up ⸤from a fire⸥.

and present my case to him. 

7 But mankind is born for trouble

as surely as sparks fly upward.

8 However, if I were you, I would appeal to God

and would present my case to Him.

7 but humans are born to trouble

just as sparks fly upward.

8 “As for me, I would seek God,

and to God I would commit my cause.

7 But a human being is born to trouble,

and they soar aloft like sparks.

8 “But I myself will seek God,

and to God I would commit my cause.

7 People are born to have trouble.

And that’s just as sure as sparks fly up.

8 “If I were you, I’d make my appeal to God.

I’d bring my case to be judged by him.

7 For man is born for trouble,

As sparks fly upward.

8 “But as for me, I would seek God,

And I would place my cause before God;
