nkjv@Job:1:14 @ and a messenger came to Job and said, "The oxen were plowing and the donkeys feeding beside them,

nkjv@Job:2:4 @ So Satan answered the LORD and said, "Skin for skin! Yes, all that a man has he will give for his life.

nkjv@Job:3:4 @ May that day be darkness; May God above not seek it, Nor the light shine upon it.

nkjv@Job:3:14 @ With kings and counselors of the earth, Who built ruins for themselves,

nkjv@Job:3:24 @ For my sighing comes before I eat, And my groanings pour out like water.

nkjv@Job:4:1 @ Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered and said:

nkjv@Job:4:2 @ "If one attempts a word with you, will you become weary? But who can withhold himself from speaking?

nkjv@Job:4:3 @ Surely you have instructed many, And you have strengthened weak hands.

nkjv@Job:4:4 @ Your words have upheld him who was stumbling, And you have strengthened the feeble knees;

nkjv@Job:4:5 @ But now it comes upon you, and you are weary; It touches you, and you are troubled.

nkjv@Job:4:6 @ Is not your reverence your confidence? And the integrity of your ways your hope?

nkjv@Job:4:7 @ "Remember now, who ever perished being innocent? Or where were the upright ever cut off?

nkjv@Job:4:8 @ Even as I have seen, Those who plow iniquity And sow trouble reap the same.

nkjv@Job:4:9 @ By the blast of God they perish, And by the breath of His anger they are consumed.

nkjv@Job:4:10 @ The roaring of the lion, The voice of the fierce lion, And the teeth of the young lions are broken.

nkjv@Job:4:11 @ The old lion perishes for lack of prey, And the cubs of the lioness are scattered.

nkjv@Job:4:12 @ "Now a word was secretly brought to me, And my ear received a whisper of it.

nkjv@Job:4:13 @ In disquieting thoughts from the visions of the night, When deep sleep falls on men,

nkjv@Job:4:14 @ Fear came upon me, and trembling, Which made all my bones shake.

nkjv@Job:4:15 @ Then a spirit passed before my face; The hair on my body stood up.

nkjv@Job:4:16 @ It stood still, But I could not discern its appearance. A form was before my eyes; There was silence; Then I heard a voice saying:

nkjv@Job:4:17 @ "Can a mortal be more righteous than God? Can a man be more pure than his Maker?

nkjv@Job:4:18 @ If He puts no trust in His servants, If He charges His angels with error,

nkjv@Job:4:19 @ How much more those who dwell in houses of clay, Whose foundation is in the dust, Who are crushed before a moth?

nkjv@Job:4:20 @ They are broken in pieces from morning till evening; They perish forever, with no one regarding.

nkjv@Job:4:21 @ Does not their own excellence go away? They die, even without wisdom.'

nkjv@Job:5:4 @ His sons are far from safety, They are crushed in the gate, And there is no deliverer.

nkjv@Job:5:14 @ They meet with darkness in the daytime, And grope at noontime as in the night.

nkjv@Job:5:24 @ You shall know that your tent is in peace; You shall visit your dwelling and find nothing amiss.

nkjv@Job:6:24 @ "Teach me, and I will hold my tongue; Cause me to understand wherein I have erred.

nkjv@Job:7:4 @ When I lie down, I say, "When shall I arise, And the night be ended?' For I have had my fill of tossing till dawn.

nkjv@Job:7:14 @ Then You scare me with dreams And terrify me with visions,

nkjv@Job:8:4 @ If your sons have sinned against Him, He has cast them away for their transgression.

nkjv@Job:8:14 @ Whose confidence shall be cut off, And whose trust is a spider's web.

nkjv@Job:9:4 @ God is wise in heart and mighty in strength. Who has hardened himself against Him and prospered?

nkjv@Job:9:14 @ "How then can I answer Him, And choose my words to reason with Him?

nkjv@Job:9:24 @ The earth is given into the hand of the wicked. He covers the faces of its judges. If it is not He, who else could it be?

nkjv@Job:9:34 @ Let Him take His rod away from me, And do not let dread of Him terrify me.

nkjv@Job:10:4 @ Do You have eyes of flesh? Or do You see as man sees?

nkjv@Job:10:14 @ If I sin, then You mark me, And will not acquit me of my iniquity.

nkjv@Job:11:4 @ For you have said, "My doctrine is pure, And I am clean in your eyes.'

nkjv@Job:11:14 @ If iniquity were in your hand, and you put it far away, And would not let wickedness dwell in your tents;

nkjv@Job:12:4 @ "I am one mocked by his friends, Who called on God, and He answered him, The just and blameless who is ridiculed.

nkjv@Job:12:14 @ If He breaks a thing down, it cannot be rebuilt; If He imprisons a man, there can be no release.

nkjv@Job:12:24 @ He takes away the understanding of the chiefs of the people of the earth, And makes them wander in a pathless wilderness.

nkjv@Job:13:4 @ But you forgers of lies, You are all worthless physicians.

nkjv@Job:13:14 @ Why do I take my flesh in my teeth, And put my life in my hands?

nkjv@Job:13:24 @ Why do You hide Your face, And regard me as Your enemy?

nkjv@Job:14:1 @ "Man who is born of woman Is of few days and full of trouble.

nkjv@Job:14:2 @ He comes forth like a flower and fades away; He flees like a shadow and does not continue.

nkjv@Job:14:3 @ And do You open Your eyes on such a one, And bring me to judgment with Yourself?

nkjv@Job:14:4 @ Who can bring a clean thing out of an unclean? No one!

nkjv@Job:14:5 @ Since his days are determined, The number of his months is with You; You have appointed his limits, so that he cannot pass.

nkjv@Job:14:6 @ Look away from him that he may rest, Till like a hired man he finishes his day.

nkjv@Job:14:7 @ "For there is hope for a tree, If it is cut down, that it will sprout again, And that its tender shoots will not cease.

nkjv@Job:14:8 @ Though its root may grow old in the earth, And its stump may die in the ground,

nkjv@Job:14:9 @ Yet at the scent of water it will bud And bring forth branches like a plant.

nkjv@Job:14:10 @ But man dies and is laid away; Indeed he breathes his last And where is he?

nkjv@Job:14:11 @ As water disappears from the sea, And a river becomes parched and dries up,

nkjv@Job:14:12 @ So man lies down and does not rise. Till the heavens are no more, They will not awake Nor be roused from their sleep.

nkjv@Job:14:13 @ "Oh, that You would hide me in the grave, That You would conceal me until Your wrath is past, That You would appoint me a set time, and remember me!

nkjv@Job:14:14 @ If a man dies, shall he live again? All the days of my hard service I will wait, Till my change comes.

nkjv@Job:14:15 @ You shall call, and I will answer You; You shall desire the work of Your hands.

nkjv@Job:14:16 @ For now You number my steps, But do not watch over my sin.

nkjv@Job:14:17 @ My transgression is sealed up in a bag, And You cover my iniquity.

nkjv@Job:14:18 @ "But as a mountain falls and crumbles away, And as a rock is moved from its place;

nkjv@Job:14:19 @ As water wears away stones, And as torrents wash away the soil of the earth; So You destroy the hope of man.

nkjv@Job:14:20 @ You prevail forever against him, and he passes on; You change his countenance and send him away.

nkjv@Job:14:21 @ His sons come to honor, and he does not know it; They are brought low, and he does not perceive it.

nkjv@Job:14:22 @ But his flesh will be in pain over it, And his soul will mourn over it."

nkjv@Job:15:4 @ Yes, you cast off fear, And restrain prayer before God.

nkjv@Job:15:14 @ "What is man, that he could be pure? And he who is born of a woman, that he could be righteous?

nkjv@Job:15:24 @ Trouble and anguish make him afraid; They overpower him, like a king ready for battle.

nkjv@Job:15:34 @ For the company of hypocrites will be barren, And fire will consume the tents of bribery.

nkjv@Job:16:4 @ I also could speak as you do, If your soul were in my soul's place. I could heap up words against you, And shake my head at you;

nkjv@Job:16:14 @ He breaks me with wound upon wound; He runs at me like a warrior.

nkjv@Job:17:4 @ For You have hidden their heart from understanding; Therefore You will not exalt them.

nkjv@Job:17:14 @ If I say to corruption, "You are my father,' And to the worm, "You are my mother and my sister,'

nkjv@Job:18:4 @ You who tear yourself in anger, Shall the earth be forsaken for you? Or shall the rock be removed from its place?

nkjv@Job:18:14 @ He is uprooted from the shelter of his tent, And they parade him before the king of terrors.

nkjv@Job:19:4 @ And if indeed I have erred, My error remains with me.

nkjv@Job:19:14 @ My relatives have failed, And my close friends have forgotten me.

nkjv@Job:19:24 @ That they were engraved on a rock With an iron pen and lead, forever!

nkjv@Job:20:4 @ "Do you not know this of old, Since man was placed on earth,

nkjv@Job:20:14 @ Yet his food in his stomach turns sour; It becomes cobra venom within him.

nkjv@Job:20:24 @ He will flee from the iron weapon; A bronze bow will pierce him through.

nkjv@Job:21:4 @ "As for me, is my complaint against man? And if it were, why should I not be impatient?

nkjv@Job:21:14 @ Yet they say to God, "Depart from us, For we do not desire the knowledge of Your ways.

nkjv@Job:21:24 @ His pails are full of milk, And the marrow of his bones is moist.

nkjv@Job:21:34 @ How then can you comfort me with empty words, Since falsehood remains in your answers?"

nkjv@Job:22:4 @ "Is it because of your fear of Him that He corrects you, And enters into judgment with you?

nkjv@Job:22:14 @ Thick clouds cover Him, so that He cannot see, And He walks above the circle of heaven.'

nkjv@Job:22:24 @ Then you will lay your gold in the dust, And the gold of Ophir among the stones of the brooks.

nkjv@Job:23:4 @ I would present my case before Him, And fill my mouth with arguments.

nkjv@Job:23:14 @ For He performs what is appointed for me, And many such things are with Him.

nkjv@Job:24:1 @ "Since times are not hidden from the Almighty, Why do those who know Him see not His days?

nkjv@Job:24:2 @ "Some remove landmarks; They seize flocks violently and feed on them;

nkjv@Job:24:3 @ They drive away the donkey of the fatherless; They take the widow's ox as a pledge.

nkjv@Job:24:4 @ They push the needy off the road; All the poor of the land are forced to hide.

nkjv@Job:24:5 @ Indeed, like wild donkeys in the desert, They go out to their work, searching for food. The wilderness yields food for them and for their children.

nkjv@Job:24:6 @ They gather their fodder in the field And glean in the vineyard of the wicked.

nkjv@Job:24:7 @ They spend the night naked, without clothing, And have no covering in the cold.

nkjv@Job:24:8 @ They are wet with the showers of the mountains, And huddle around the rock for want of shelter.

nkjv@Job:24:9 @ "Some snatch the fatherless from the breast, And take a pledge from the poor.

nkjv@Job:24:10 @ They cause the poor to go naked, without clothing; And they take away the sheaves from the hungry.

nkjv@Job:24:11 @ They press out oil within their walls, And tread winepresses, yet suffer thirst.

nkjv@Job:24:12 @ The dying groan in the city, And the souls of the wounded cry out; Yet God does not charge them with wrong.

nkjv@Job:24:13 @ "There are those who rebel against the light; They do not know its ways Nor abide in its paths.

nkjv@Job:24:14 @ The murderer rises with the light; He kills the poor and needy; And in the night he is like a thief.

nkjv@Job:24:15 @ The eye of the adulterer waits for the twilight, Saying, "No eye will see me'; And he disguises his face.

nkjv@Job:24:16 @ In the dark they break into houses Which they marked for themselves in the daytime; They do not know the light.

nkjv@Job:24:17 @ For the morning is the same to them as the shadow of death; If someone recognizes them, They are in the terrors of the shadow of death.

nkjv@Job:24:18 @ "They should be swift on the face of the waters, Their portion should be cursed in the earth, So that no one would turn into the way of their vineyards.

nkjv@Job:24:19 @ As drought and heat consume the snow waters, So the grave consumes those who have sinned.

nkjv@Job:24:20 @ The womb should forget him, The worm should feed sweetly on him; He should be remembered no more, And wickedness should be broken like a tree.

nkjv@Job:24:21 @ For he preys on the barren who do not bear, And does no good for the widow.

nkjv@Job:24:22 @ "But God draws the mighty away with His power; He rises up, but no man is sure of life.

nkjv@Job:24:23 @ He gives them security, and they rely on it; Yet His eyes are on their ways.

nkjv@Job:24:24 @ They are exalted for a little while, Then they are gone. They are brought low; They are taken out of the way like all others; They dry out like the heads of grain.

nkjv@Job:24:25 @ "Now if it is not so, who will prove me a liar, And make my speech worth nothing?"

nkjv@Job:25:4 @ How then can man be righteous before God? Or how can he be pure who is born of a woman?

nkjv@Job:26:4 @ To whom have you uttered words? And whose spirit came from you?

nkjv@Job:26:14 @ Indeed these are the mere edges of His ways, And how small a whisper we hear of Him! But the thunder of His power who can understand?"

nkjv@Job:27:4 @ My lips will not speak wickedness, Nor my tongue utter deceit.

nkjv@Job:27:14 @ If his children are multiplied, it is for the sword; And his offspring shall not be satisfied with bread.

nkjv@Job:28:4 @ He breaks open a shaft away from people; In places forgotten by feet They hang far away from men; They swing to and fro.

nkjv@Job:28:14 @ The deep says, "It is not in me'; And the sea says, "It is not with me.'

nkjv@Job:28:24 @ For He looks to the ends of the earth, And sees under the whole heavens,

nkjv@Job:29:4 @ Just as I was in the days of my prime, When the friendly counsel of God was over my tent;

nkjv@Job:29:14 @ I put on righteousness, and it clothed me; My justice was like a robe and a turban.

nkjv@Job:29:24 @ If I mocked at them, they did not believe it, And the light of my countenance they did not cast down.

nkjv@Job:30:4 @ Who pluck mallow by the bushes, And broom tree roots for their food.

nkjv@Job:30:14 @ They come as broad breakers; Under the ruinous storm they roll along.

nkjv@Job:30:24 @ "Surely He would not stretch out His hand against a heap of ruins, If they cry out when He destroys it.

nkjv@Job:31:4 @ Does He not see my ways, And count all my steps?

nkjv@Job:31:14 @ What then shall I do when God rises up? When He punishes, how shall I answer Him?

nkjv@Job:31:24 @ "If I have made gold my hope, Or said to fine gold, "You are my confidence';

nkjv@Job:31:34 @ Because I feared the great multitude, And dreaded the contempt of families, So that I kept silence And did not go out of the door--

nkjv@Job:31:40 @ Then let thistles grow instead of wheat, And weeds instead of barley." The words of Job are ended.

nkjv@Job:32:4 @ Now because they were years older than he, Elihu had waited to speak to Job.

nkjv@Job:32:14 @ Now he has not directed his words against me; So I will not answer him with your words.

nkjv@Job:33:4 @ The Spirit of God has made me, And the breath of the Almighty gives me life.

nkjv@Job:33:14 @ For God may speak in one way, or in another, Yet man does not perceive it.

nkjv@Job:33:24 @ Then He is gracious to him, and says, "Deliver him from going down to the Pit; I have found a ransom';

nkjv@Job:34:1 @ Elihu further answered and said:

nkjv@Job:34:2 @ "Hear my words, you wise men; Give ear to me, you who have knowledge.

nkjv@Job:34:3 @ For the ear tests words As the palate tastes food.

nkjv@Job:34:4 @ Let us choose justice for ourselves; Let us know among ourselves what is good.

nkjv@Job:34:5 @ "For Job has said, "I am righteous, But God has taken away my justice;

nkjv@Job:34:6 @ Should I lie concerning my right? My wound is incurable, though I am without transgression.'

nkjv@Job:34:7 @ What man is like Job, Who drinks scorn like water,

nkjv@Job:34:8 @ Who goes in company with the workers of iniquity, And walks with wicked men?

nkjv@Job:34:9 @ For he has said, "It profits a man nothing That he should delight in God.'

nkjv@Job:34:10 @ "Therefore listen to me, you men of understanding: Far be it from God to do wickedness, And from the Almighty to commit iniquity.

nkjv@Job:34:11 @ For He repays man according to his work, And makes man to find a reward according to his way.

nkjv@Job:34:12 @ Surely God will never do wickedly, Nor will the Almighty pervert justice.

nkjv@Job:34:13 @ Who gave Him charge over the earth? Or who appointed Him over the whole world?

nkjv@Job:34:14 @ If He should set His heart on it, If He should gather to Himself His Spirit and His breath,

nkjv@Job:34:15 @ All flesh would perish together, And man would return to dust.

nkjv@Job:34:16 @ "If you have understanding, hear this; Listen to the sound of my words:

nkjv@Job:34:17 @ Should one who hates justice govern? Will you condemn Him who is most just?

nkjv@Job:34:18 @ Is it fitting to say to a king, "You are worthless,' And to nobles, "You are wicked'?

nkjv@Job:34:19 @ Yet He is not partial to princes, Nor does He regard the rich more than the poor; For they are all the work of His hands.

nkjv@Job:34:20 @ In a moment they die, in the middle of the night; The people are shaken and pass away; The mighty are taken away without a hand.

nkjv@Job:34:21 @ "For His eyes are on the ways of man, And He sees all his steps.

nkjv@Job:34:22 @ There is no darkness nor shadow of death Where the workers of iniquity may hide themselves.

nkjv@Job:34:23 @ For He need not further consider a man, That he should go before God in judgment.

nkjv@Job:34:24 @ He breaks in pieces mighty men without inquiry, And sets others in their place.

nkjv@Job:34:25 @ Therefore He knows their works; He overthrows them in the night, And they are crushed.

nkjv@Job:34:26 @ He strikes them as wicked men In the open sight of others,

nkjv@Job:34:27 @ Because they turned back from Him, And would not consider any of His ways,

nkjv@Job:34:28 @ So that they caused the cry of the poor to come to Him; For He hears the cry of the afflicted.

nkjv@Job:34:29 @ When He gives quietness, who then can make trouble? And when He hides His face, who then can see Him, Whether it is against a nation or a man alone?--

nkjv@Job:34:30 @ That the hypocrite should not reign, Lest the people be ensnared.

nkjv@Job:34:31 @ "For has anyone said to God, "I have borne chastening; I will offend no more;

nkjv@Job:34:32 @ Teach me what I do not see; If I have done iniquity, I will do no more'?

nkjv@Job:34:33 @ Should He repay it according to your terms, Just because you disavow it? You must choose, and not I; Therefore speak what you know.

nkjv@Job:34:34 @ "Men of understanding say to me, Wise men who listen to me:

nkjv@Job:34:35 @ "Job speaks without knowledge, His words are without wisdom.'

nkjv@Job:34:36 @ Oh, that Job were tried to the utmost, Because his answers are like those of wicked men!

nkjv@Job:34:37 @ For he adds rebellion to his sin; He claps his hands among us, And multiplies his words against God."

nkjv@Job:35:4 @ "I will answer you, And your companions with you.

nkjv@Job:35:14 @ Although you say you do not see Him, Yet justice is before Him, and you must wait for Him.

nkjv@Job:36:4 @ For truly my words are not false; One who is perfect in knowledge is with you.

nkjv@Job:36:14 @ They die in youth, And their life ends among the perverted persons.

nkjv@Job:36:24 @ "Remember to magnify His work, Of which men have sung.

nkjv@Job:37:4 @ After it a voice roars; He thunders with His majestic voice, And He does not restrain them when His voice is heard.

nkjv@Job:37:14 @ "Listen to this, O Job; Stand still and consider the wondrous works of God.

nkjv@Job:37:24 @ Therefore men fear Him; He shows no partiality to any who are wise of heart."

nkjv@Job:38:4 @ "Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth? Tell Me, if you have understanding.

nkjv@Job:38:14 @ It takes on form like clay under a seal, And stands out like a garment.

nkjv@Job:38:24 @ By what way is light diffused, Or the east wind scattered over the earth?

nkjv@Job:38:34 @ "Can you lift up your voice to the clouds, That an abundance of water may cover you?

nkjv@Job:38:40 @ When they crouch in their dens, Or lurk in their lairs to lie in wait?

nkjv@Job:38:41 @ Who provides food for the raven, When its young ones cry to God, And wander about for lack of food?

nkjv@Job:39:4 @ Their young ones are healthy, They grow strong with grain; They depart and do not return to them.

nkjv@Job:39:14 @ For she leaves her eggs on the ground, And warms them in the dust;

nkjv@Job:39:24 @ He devours the distance with fierceness and rage; Nor does he come to a halt because the trumpet has sounded.

nkjv@Job:40:1 @ Moreover the LORD answered Job, and said:

nkjv@Job:40:2 @ "Shall the one who contends with the Almighty correct Him? He who rebukes God, let him answer it."

nkjv@Job:40:3 @ Then Job answered the LORD and said:

nkjv@Job:40:4 @ "Behold, I am vile; What shall I answer You? I lay my hand over my mouth.

nkjv@Job:40:5 @ Once I have spoken, but I will not answer; Yes, twice, but I will proceed no further."

nkjv@Job:40:6 @ Then the LORD answered Job out of the whirlwind, and said:

nkjv@Job:40:7 @ "Now prepare yourself like a man; I will question you, and you shall answer Me:

nkjv@Job:40:8 @ "Would you indeed annul My judgment? Would you condemn Me that you may be justified?

nkjv@Job:40:9 @ Have you an arm like God? Or can you thunder with a voice like His?

nkjv@Job:40:10 @ Then adorn yourself with majesty and splendor, And array yourself with glory and beauty.

nkjv@Job:40:11 @ Disperse the rage of your wrath; Look on everyone who is proud, and humble him.

nkjv@Job:40:12 @ Look on everyone who is proud, and bring him low; Tread down the wicked in their place.

nkjv@Job:40:13 @ Hide them in the dust together, Bind their faces in hidden darkness.

nkjv@Job:40:14 @ Then I will also confess to you That your own right hand can save you.

nkjv@Job:40:15 @ "Look now at the behemoth, which I made along with you; He eats grass like an ox.

nkjv@Job:40:16 @ See now, his strength is in his hips, And his power is in his stomach muscles.

nkjv@Job:40:17 @ He moves his tail like a cedar; The sinews of his thighs are tightly knit.

nkjv@Job:40:18 @ His bones are like beams of bronze, His ribs like bars of iron.

nkjv@Job:40:19 @ He is the first of the ways of God; Only He who made him can bring near His sword.

nkjv@Job:40:20 @ Surely the mountains yield food for him, And all the beasts of the field play there.

nkjv@Job:40:21 @ He lies under the lotus trees, In a covert of reeds and marsh.

nkjv@Job:40:22 @ The lotus trees cover him with their shade; The willows by the brook surround him.

nkjv@Job:40:23 @ Indeed the river may rage, Yet he is not disturbed; He is confident, though the Jordan gushes into his mouth,

nkjv@Job:40:24 @ Though he takes it in his eyes, Or one pierces his nose with a snare.

nkjv@Job:41:1 @ "Can you draw out Leviathan with a hook, Or snare his tongue with a line which you lower?

nkjv@Job:41:2 @ Can you put a reed through his nose, Or pierce his jaw with a hook?

nkjv@Job:41:3 @ Will he make many supplications to you? Will he speak softly to you?

nkjv@Job:41:4 @ Will he make a covenant with you? Will you take him as a servant forever?

nkjv@Job:41:5 @ Will you play with him as with a bird, Or will you leash him for your maidens?

nkjv@Job:41:6 @ Will your companions make a banquet of him? Will they apportion him among the merchants?

nkjv@Job:41:7 @ Can you fill his skin with harpoons, Or his head with fishing spears?

nkjv@Job:41:8 @ Lay your hand on him; Remember the battle-- Never do it again!

nkjv@Job:41:9 @ Indeed, any hope of overcoming him is false; Shall one not be overwhelmed at the sight of him?

nkjv@Job:41:10 @ No one is so fierce that he would dare stir him up. Who then is able to stand against Me?

nkjv@Job:41:11 @ Who has preceded Me, that I should pay him? Everything under heaven is Mine.

nkjv@Job:41:12 @ "I will not conceal his limbs, His mighty power, or his graceful proportions.

nkjv@Job:41:13 @ Who can remove his outer coat? Who can approach him with a double bridle?

nkjv@Job:41:14 @ Who can open the doors of his face, With his terrible teeth all around?

nkjv@Job:41:15 @ His rows of scales are his pride, Shut up tightly as with a seal;

nkjv@Job:41:16 @ One is so near another That no air can come between them;

nkjv@Job:41:17 @ They are joined one to another, They stick together and cannot be parted.

nkjv@Job:41:18 @ His sneezings flash forth light, And his eyes are like the eyelids of the morning.

nkjv@Job:41:19 @ Out of his mouth go burning lights; Sparks of fire shoot out.

nkjv@Job:41:20 @ Smoke goes out of his nostrils, As from a boiling pot and burning rushes.

nkjv@Job:41:21 @ His breath kindles coals, And a flame goes out of his mouth.

nkjv@Job:42:3 @ You asked, "Who is this who hides counsel without knowledge?' Therefore I have uttered what I did not understand, Things too wonderful for me, which I did not know.

nkjv@Job:42:4 @ Listen, please, and let me speak; You said, "I will question you, and you shall answer Me.'

nkjv@Job:42:5 @ "I have heard of You by the hearing of the ear, But now my eye sees You.

nkjv@Job:42:6 @ Therefore I abhor myself, And repent in dust and ashes."

nkjv@Job:42:10 @ And the LORD restored Job's losses when he prayed for his friends. Indeed the LORD gave Job twice as much as he had before.

nkjv@Job:42:11 @ Then all his brothers, all his sisters, and all those who had been his acquaintances before, came to him and ate food with him in his house; and they consoled him and comforted him for all the adversity that the LORD had brought upon him. Each one gave him a piece of silver and each a ring of gold.

nkjv@Job:42:12 @ Now the LORD blessed the latter days of Job more than his beginning; for he had fourteen thousand sheep, six thousand camels, one thousand yoke of oxen, and one thousand female donkeys.

nkjv@Job:42:13 @ He also had seven sons and three daughters.

nkjv@Job:42:14 @ And he called the name of the first Jemimah, the name of the second Keziah, and the name of the third Keren-Happuch.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:1 @ Then I returned and considered all the oppression that is done under the sun: And look! The tears of the oppressed, But they have no comforter-- On the side of their oppressors there is power, But they have no comforter.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:2 @ Therefore I praised the dead who were already dead, More than the living who are still alive.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:3 @ Yet, better than both is he who has never existed, Who has not seen the evil work that is done under the sun.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:4 @ Again, I saw that for all toil and every skillful work a man is envied by his neighbor. This also is vanity and grasping for the wind.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:5 @ The fool folds his hands And consumes his own flesh.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:6 @ Better a handful with quietness Than both hands full, together with toil and grasping for the wind.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:7 @ Then I returned, and I saw vanity under the sun:

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:8 @ There is one alone, without companion: He has neither son nor brother. Yet there is no end to all his labors, Nor is his eye satisfied with riches. But he never asks, "For whom do I toil and deprive myself of good?" This also is vanity and a grave misfortune.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:9 @ Two are better than one, Because they have a good reward for their labor.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:10 @ For if they fall, one will lift up his companion. But woe to him who is alone when he falls, For he has no one to help him up.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:11 @ Again, if two lie down together, they will keep warm; But how can one be warm alone?

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:12 @ Though one may be overpowered by another, two can withstand him. And a threefold cord is not quickly broken.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:13 @ Better a poor and wise youth Than an old and foolish king who will be admonished no more.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:14 @ For he comes out of prison to be king, Although he was born poor in his kingdom.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:15 @ I saw all the living who walk under the sun; They were with the second youth who stands in his place.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:16 @ There was no end of all the people over whom he was made king; Yet those who come afterward will not rejoice in him. Surely this also is vanity and grasping for the wind.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:4 @ When you make a vow to God, do not delay to pay it; For He has no pleasure in fools. Pay what you have vowed--

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:14 @ But those riches perish through misfortune; When he begets a son, there is nothing in his hand.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:6:4 @ for it comes in vanity and departs in darkness, and its name is covered with darkness.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:4 @ The heart of the wise is in the house of mourning, But the heart of fools is in the house of mirth.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:14 @ In the day of prosperity be joyful, But in the day of adversity consider: Surely God has appointed the one as well as the other, So that man can find out nothing that will come after him.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:24 @ As for that which is far off and exceedingly deep, Who can find it out?

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:4 @ Where the word of a king is, there is power; And who may say to him, "What are you doing?"

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:14 @ There is a vanity which occurs on earth, that there are just men to whom it happens according to the work of the wicked; again, there are wicked men to whom it happens according to the work of the righteous. I said that this also is vanity.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:4 @ But for him who is joined to all the living there is hope, for a living dog is better than a dead lion.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:14 @ There was a little city with few men in it; and a great king came against it, besieged it, and built great snares around it.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:4 @ If the spirit of the ruler rises against you, Do not leave your post; For conciliation pacifies great offenses.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:14 @ A fool also multiplies words. No man knows what is to be; Who can tell him what will be after him?

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:11:4 @ He who observes the wind will not sow, And he who regards the clouds will not reap.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:4 @ When the doors are shut in the streets, And the sound of grinding is low; When one rises up at the sound of a bird, And all the daughters of music are brought low.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:14 @ For God will bring every work into judgment, Including every secret thing, Whether good or evil.

nkjv@Songs:1:4 @ Draw me away! We will run after you. The king has brought me into his chambers. We will be glad and rejoice in you. We will remember 1your love more than wine. Rightly do they love 1you.

nkjv@Songs:1:14 @ My beloved is to me a cluster of henna blooms In the vineyards of En Gedi.

nkjv@Songs:2:4 @ He brought me to the banqueting house, And his banner over me was love.

nkjv@Songs:2:14 @ "O my dove, in the clefts of the rock, In the secret places of the cliff, Let me see your face, Let me hear your voice; For your voice is sweet, And your face is lovely."

nkjv@Songs:3:4 @ Scarcely had I passed by them, When I found the one I love. I held him and would not let him go, Until I had brought him to the house of my mother, And into the chamber of her who conceived me.

nkjv@Songs:4:1 @ Behold, you are fair, my love! Behold, you are fair! You have dove's eyes behind your veil. Your hair is like a flock of goats, Going down from Mount Gilead.

nkjv@Songs:4:2 @ Your teeth are like a flock of shorn sheep Which have come up from the washing, Every one of which bears twins, And none is barren among them.

nkjv@Songs:4:3 @ Your lips are like a strand of scarlet, And your mouth is lovely. Your temples behind your veil Are like a piece of pomegranate.

nkjv@Songs:4:4 @ Your neck is like the tower of David, Built for an armory, On which hang a thousand bucklers, All shields of mighty men.

nkjv@Songs:4:5 @ Your two breasts are like two fawns, Twins of a gazelle, Which feed among the lilies.

nkjv@Songs:4:6 @ Until the day breaks And the shadows flee away, I will go my way to the mountain of myrrh And to the hill of frankincense.

nkjv@Songs:4:7 @ You are all fair, my love, And there is no spot in you.

nkjv@Songs:4:8 @ Come with me from Lebanon, my spouse, With me from Lebanon. Look from the top of Amana, From the top of Senir and Hermon, From the lions' dens, From the mountains of the leopards.

nkjv@Songs:4:9 @ You have ravished my heart, My sister, my spouse; You have ravished my heart With one look of your eyes, With one link of your necklace.

nkjv@Songs:4:10 @ How fair is your love, My sister, my spouse! How much better than wine is your love, And the scent of your perfumes Than all spices!

nkjv@Songs:4:11 @ Your lips, O my spouse, Drip as the honeycomb; Honey and milk are under your tongue; And the fragrance of your garments Is like the fragrance of Lebanon.

nkjv@Songs:4:12 @ A garden enclosed Is my sister, my spouse, A spring shut up, A fountain sealed.

nkjv@Songs:4:13 @ Your plants are an orchard of pomegranates With pleasant fruits, Fragrant henna with spikenard,

nkjv@Songs:4:14 @ Spikenard and saffron, Calamus and cinnamon, With all trees of frankincense, Myrrh and aloes, With all the chief spices--

nkjv@Songs:4:15 @ A fountain of gardens, A well of living waters, And streams from Lebanon.

nkjv@Songs:4:16 @ Awake, O north wind, And come, O south! Blow upon my garden, That its spices may flow out. Let my beloved come to his garden And eat its pleasant fruits.

nkjv@Songs:5:4 @ My beloved put his hand By the latch of the door, And my heart yearned for him.

nkjv@Songs:5:14 @ His hands are rods of gold Set with beryl. His body is carved ivory Inlaid with sapphires.

nkjv@Songs:6:4 @ O my love, you are as beautiful as Tirzah, Lovely as Jerusalem, Awesome as an army with banners!

nkjv@Songs:7:4 @ Your neck is like an ivory tower, Your eyes like the pools in Heshbon By the gate of Bath Rabbim. Your nose is like the tower of Lebanon Which looks toward Damascus.

nkjv@Songs:8:4 @ I charge you, O daughters of Jerusalem, Do not stir up nor awaken love Until it pleases.

nkjv@Songs:8:14 @ Make haste, my beloved, And be like a gazelle Or a young stag On the mountains of spices.
