book: Job

text: And Job again took up his parable, and said,


text: As God liveth, who hath taken away my right, And the Almighty, who hath vexed my soul


text: (For my life is yet whole in me, And the spirit of God is in my nostrils);


text: Surely my lips shall not speak unrighteousness, Neither shall my tongue utter deceit.


text: Far be it from me that I should justify you: Till I die I will not put away mine integrity from me.


text: My righteousness I hold fast, and will not let it go: My heart shall not reproach me so long as I live.


text: Let mine enemy be as the wicked, And let him that riseth up against me be as the unrighteous.


text: For what is the hope of the godless, though he get him gain, When God taketh away his soul?


text: Will God hear his cry, When trouble cometh upon him?


text: Will he delight himself in the Almighty, And call upon God at all times?


text: I will teach you concerning the hand of God; That which is with the Almighty will I not conceal.


text: Behold, all ye yourselves have seen it; Why then are ye become altogether vain?


text: This is the portion of a wicked man with God, And the heritage of oppressors, which they receive from the Almighty:


text: If his children be multiplied, it is for the sword; And his offspring shall not be satisfied with bread.


text: Those that remain of him shall be buried in death, And his widows shall make no lamentation.


text: Though he heap up silver as the dust, And prepare raiment as the clay;


text: He may prepare it, but the just shall put it on, And the innocent shall divide the silver.


text: He buildeth his house as the moth, And as a booth which the keeper maketh.


text: He lieth down rich, but he shall not be gathered to his fathers; He openeth his eyes, and he is not.


text: Terrors overtake him like waters; A tempest stealeth him away in the night.


text: The east wind carrieth him away, and he departeth; And it sweepeth him out of his place.


text: For God shall hurl at him, and not spare: He would fain flee out of his hand.


text: Men shall clap their hands at him, And shall hiss him out of his place.
