6For hardship does not spring from the soil,

nor does trouble sprout from the ground.

6“For disaster does not come from the dust,

Nor does trouble sprout from the ground,

6For affliction does not come from the dust,

Nor does trouble sprout from the ground,

Nor does trouble spring forth from the ground.

and trouble does not sprout from the ground.

Trouble doesn’t jump out of the ground.
