[When great suffering afflicts a righteous man, especially one] who had comforted so many people in trouble, and who was so pious, [he] should [take care not to blindly] fall into such despair, forgetting the great truth that the righteous never perish under affliction— calamity only destroys the wicked. [Likewise, he should meekly refrain from] complaining against God because only the ungodly resent the dealings of God and by their impatience bring down His wrath upon them. [Instead, amidst all suffering, the believer is] to seek after God, for God only smites to heal or to correct, to draw people to Himself and away from evil.

The First Speech of Eliphaz
1 Then Eliphaz the Temanite replied,
2 “Job, suppose someone tries to talk to you.    Will that make you uneasy?    I can’t keep from speaking up. 3 Look, you taught many people.    You made weak hands strong. 4 Your words helped those who had fallen down.    You made shaky knees strong. 5 Now trouble comes to you. And you are unhappy about it.    It strikes you down. And you are afraid. 6 Shouldn’t you worship God and trust in him?    Shouldn’t your honest life give you hope?
7 “Here’s something to think about.    Have people who aren’t guilty ever been wiped out?    Have honest people ever been completely destroyed? 8 Here’s what I’ve observed.    People gather a crop from what they plant.    If they plant evil and trouble, that’s what they will harvest. 9 The breath of God destroys them.    The blast of his anger wipes them out. 10 Powerful lions might roar and growl.    But their teeth are broken. 11 Lions die because they don’t have any food.    Then their cubs are scattered.
12 “A message came to me in secret.    It was as quiet as a whisper. 13 I had a scary dream one night.    I was sound asleep. 14 Fear and trembling seized me.    That made every bone in my body shake. 15 A spirit glided past my face.    The hair on my body stood on end. 16 Then the spirit stopped.    But I couldn’t tell what it was. Something stood there in front of me.    I heard a soft voice. 17 It said, ‘Can a human being be more right than God?    Can even a strong man be more pure than the God who made him? 18 God doesn’t trust those who serve him.    He even brings charges against his angels. 19 So he’ll certainly find fault with human beings.    After all, they are made out of dust.    They can be crushed more easily than a moth. 20 Between sunrise and sunset they are broken to pieces.    Nobody even notices. They disappear forever. 21 Like a tent that falls down, they get weak.    They die because they didn’t follow God’s wisdom.’ ” — Job 4 | New International Reader's Version (NIRV) Holy Bible, New International Reader’s Version® Copyright © 1995, 1996, 1998 by Biblica.

When Well-Intended Words Become a Weapon
1 Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered and said: 2 “If one ventures a word with you, will you be impatient?     Yet who can keep from speaking? 3 Behold, you have instructed many,     and you have strengthened the weak hands. 4 Your words have upheld him who was stumbling,     and you have made firm the feeble knees. 5 But now it has come to you, and you are impatient;     it touches you, and you…

Image description: it's a drawing of Ahsoka Tano from Star Wars. She's in a white tank top and white head scarf, with gold details on the forehead and ears. She's cracking her knuckles with one hand and looking off to the side with one eye brow raised. The background behind her is black with a white moon and plants. End of description.

John Dory was later grounded for giving the baby a whole berry that is bigger than his own body.

I wasn't planning on making a whole comic whoops.. but here's Martlet! Clover's guardian who runs a woodworking shop. She does here best to set a good example and be supportive, but in doing so can sometimes accidentally put pressure on them.
