Bible verse
Though your beginnings were modest, your latter days will flourish.
Job 8:7 · BSB
The verses around it, from Job 8.
3 Does God pervert justice? Does the Almighty pervert what is right?
4 When your children sinned against Him, He gave them over to their rebellion.
5 But if you would earnestly seek God and ask the Almighty for mercy,
6 if you are pure and upright, even now He will rouse Himself on your behalf and restore your righteous estate.
7 Though your beginnings were modest, your latter days will flourish.
8 Please inquire of past generations and consider the discoveries of their fathers.
9 For we were born yesterday and know nothing; our days on earth are but a shadow.
10 Will they not teach you and tell you, and speak from their understanding?
11 Does papyrus grow where there is no marsh? Do reeds flourish without water?
