Reflection on Affliction

As I was reading today, I read this and for some reason I could not go on till I pondered it's meaning. Now I put it to you, the reader to ponder it's meaning...

Although affliction cometh not forth of the dust,
neither doth trouble spring out of the ground;
yet man is born unto trouble,
as the sparks fly upward.

       —Eliphaz the Temanite to Job, 5:6-7
