Job 27




lesserot@Job:27:1 @ And Job continued taking up his parable, and said,

lesserot@Job:27:2 @ As God liveth, who hath removed justice from me; and by the Almighty, who hath embittered my soul:

lesserot@Job:27:3 @ All the while my breath is in me, and the spirit of God is in my nostrils;

lesserot@Job:27:4 @ Shall my lips not speak any wrong, nor shall my tongue utter deceit.

lesserot@Job:27:5 @ Far be it from me that I should justify you; till I depart hence will I not allow to take my integrity away from me.

lesserot@Job:27:6 @ I have laid fast hold on my righteousness, and I will not let it go: my heart shall not reproach me during all my life.

lesserot@Job:27:7 @ Like the wicked is my enemy, and he that riseth up against me like a wrong–doer.

lesserot@Job:27:8 @ For what is the hope of the hypocrite, when he hath gained unjust wealth, when God casteth forth his soul?

lesserot@Job:27:9 @ Will God hear his cry, when distress cometh upon him?

lesserot@Job:27:10 @ Or can he find delight in the Almighty? can he call on God at all times?

lesserot@Job:27:11 @ I will instruct you concerning what is in the hand of God: which is with the Almighty will I not conceal.

lesserot@Job:27:12 @ Lo! ye yourselves have all beheld it: why is it then that ye deal in such vanities?

lesserot@Job:27:13 @ This is the portion of a wicked man with God, and the portion of tyrants, which they shall receive from the Almighty.

lesserot@Job:27:14 @ If his children be multiplied, it is only for the sword; and his offspring will not be satisfied with bread.

lesserot@Job:27:15 @ Those of his that are left to escape will be buried by death; and his widows will not be able to weep.

lesserot@Job:27:16 @ Though he heap up silver as the dust, and prepare garments as the clay:

lesserot@Job:27:17 @ He may prepare, but the righteous will clothe himself, and the silver the innocent will divide.

lesserot@Job:27:18 @ He buildeth his house like the moth, and like a hut that a keeper hath made.

lesserot@Job:27:19 @ Rich will he lie down, but will not be gathered: one openeth his eyes, and he is no more.

lesserot@Job:27:20 @ Like a flood will terror overtake him, in the night a tempest will steal him away.

lesserot@Job:27:21 @ The east wind will lift him up, and he must be gone; and it hurleth him like a storm out of his place.

lesserot@Job:27:22 @ And will cast upon him, and bare no pity: out of his hand will surely escape.

lesserot@Job:27:23 @ Men will clap their hands over him, and will hiss after him out of his place.
