Quicksand

He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings.

I sink in deep mire, where there is no standing: I am come into deep waters, where the floods overflow me.

The river of Kishon swept them away, that ancient river, the river Kishon. O my soul, thou hast trodden down strength.

He is like a man which built an house, and digged deep, and laid the foundation on a rock: and when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently upon that house, and could not shake it: for it was founded upon a rock.

Which when they had taken up, they used helps, undergirding the ship; and, fearing lest they should fall into the quicksands, strake sail, and so were driven.

Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock. And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand: And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.

Answer not a fool according to his folly, lest thou also be like unto him. Answer a fool according to his folly, lest he be wise in his own conceit.

To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life:

Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin.
