as a moth.
Job 8:14‑15• 14Whose hope shall be cut off, and whose trust shall be a spider's web.
 15He shall lean upon his house, but it shall not stand: he shall hold it fast, but it shall not endure. (Job 8:14‑15)
;
Isa. 51:8• 8For the moth shall eat them up like a garment, and the worm shall eat them like wool: but my righteousness shall be for ever, and my salvation from generation to generation. (Isa. 51:8)
as a booth.
Isa. 1:8• 8And the daughter of Zion is left as a cottage in a vineyard, as a lodge in a garden of cucumbers, as a besieged city. (Isa. 1:8)
;
Isa. 38:12• 12Mine age is departed, and is removed from me as a shepherd's tent: I have cut off like a weaver my life: he will cut me off with pining sickness: from day even to night wilt thou make an end of me. (Isa. 38:12)
;
Lam. 2:6• 6And he hath violently taken away his tabernacle, as if it were of a garden: he hath destroyed his places of the assembly: the Lord hath caused the solemn feasts and sabbaths to be forgotten in Zion, and hath despised in the indignation of his anger the king and the priest. (Lam. 2:6)
• The grand dwellings of the ungodly, like the frail tenement of the moth, shall crumble into nothingness, or be as the watchman’s transient booth, “as a lodge in a garden of cucumbers.” The fact that Job can speak thus of the perishing things of this world’s greatness shows that he was conscious of a far different heritage for himself. (“Job 3-31” by S. Ridout)
