Job:4:7-21
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Remember ,
I pray thee ,
who ever perished ,
being innocent ?
or where were the righteous cut off ?
*
Even as I have seen ,
they that plow iniquity ,
and sow wickedness ,
reap the same .
*
By the blast of God they perish ,
and by the breath of his nostrils are they consumed .
*
The roaring of the lion ,
and the voice of the fierce lion ,
and the teeth of the young lions ,
are broken .
*
The old lion perisheth for lack of prey ,
and the stout lion '
s whelps are scattered abroad .
*
Now a thing was secretly brought to me ,
and mine ear received a little thereof .
*
In thoughts from the visions of the night ,
when deep sleep falleth on men ,
*
Fear came upon me ,
and trembling ,
which made all my bones to shake .
*
Then a spirit passed before my face ;
the hair of my flesh stood up :
*
It stood still ,
but I could not discern the form thereof :
an image was before mine eyes ,
there was silence ,
and I heard a voice ,
saying ,
*
Shall mortal man be more just than God ?
shall a man be more pure than his maker ?
*
Behold ,
he put no trust in his servants ;
and his angels he charged with folly :
*
How much less in them that dwell in houses of clay ,
whose foundation is in the dust ,
which are crushed before the moth ?
*
They are destroyed from morning to evening :
they perish for ever without any regarding it .
*
Doth not their excellency which is in them go away ?
they die ,
even without wisdom .
