mkjv@Job:1:1 @ There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name [was] Job. And that man was perfect and upright, and one who feared God and turned aside from evil.

mkjv@Job:1:2 @ And there were born to him seven sons and three daughters.

mkjv@Job:1:3 @ And his possessions were seven thousand sheep and three thousand camels, and five hundred yoke of oxen, and five hundred she asses, and a very great household, so that this man was the greatest of all the men of the east.

mkjv@Job:1:4 @ And his sons went and feasted in the house of each one on his day. And they sent and called for their three sisters to eat and to drink with them.

mkjv@Job:1:5 @ And when they had gone around the day of feasting, Job sent and sanctified them, and rose up early in the morning and offered burnt offerings [according to] the number of them all. For Job said, It may be that my sons have sinned and cursed God in their hearts. So Job did always.

mkjv@Job:1:6 @ And a day came when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD. And Satan also came among them.

mkjv@Job:1:7 @ And the LORD said to Satan, From where do you come? Then Satan answered the LORD and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it.

mkjv@Job:1:8 @ And the LORD said to Satan, Have you set your heart against My servant Job, because [there is] none like him in the earth, a perfect and upright man, one who fears God and turns away from evil?

mkjv@Job:1:9 @ And Satan answered the LORD and said, Does Job fear God for nothing?

mkjv@Job:1:10 @ Have You not made a hedge around him, and around his house, and around all that he has on every side? You have blessed the work of his hands, and his livestock have increased in the land.

mkjv@Job:1:11 @ But put forth Your hand now, and touch all that he has, and he will curse You to Your face.

mkjv@Job:1:12 @ And the LORD said to Satan, Behold, all that he has [is] in your power. Only do not lay your hand upon him. And Satan went forth from the presence of the LORD.

mkjv@Job:1:13 @ And a day came when his sons and his daughters [were] eating and drinking wine in their oldest brother's house.

mkjv@Job:1:14 @ And there came a messenger to Job and said, The oxen were plowing, and the asses feeding beside them.

mkjv@Job:1:15 @ And the Sabeans fell [on] and took them away. Yea, they have killed the servants with the edge of the sword. And I only have escaped alone to tell you.

mkjv@Job:1:16 @ While he [was] still speaking, there also came [another] and said, The fire of God has fallen from the heavens and has burned up the sheep and the servants, and destroyed them. And I only have escaped alone to tell you.

mkjv@Job:1:17 @ While he [was] still speaking, there also came [another] and said, The Chaldeans made out three bands and swooped down upon the camels, and have carried them away, yea, and have killed the servants with the edge of the sword. And I only have escaped alone to tell you.

mkjv@Job:1:18 @ While he [was] still speaking, there also came another and said, Your sons and your daughters were eating and drinking wine in their oldest brother's house.

mkjv@Job:1:19 @ And, behold, a great wind came from the wilderness and struck the four corners of the house, and it fell upon the young men, and they are dead. And I only have escaped alone to tell you.

mkjv@Job:1:20 @ And Job arose, and tore his robe, and shaved his head, and fell down upon the ground and worshiped.

mkjv@Job:1:21 @ And he said, I came naked out of my mother's womb, and naked shall I return there. The LORD gave, and the LORD has taken away. Blessed [be] the name of the LORD.

mkjv@Job:1:22 @ In all this Job did not sin, nor charge God foolishly.

mkjv@Job:2:1 @ And it happened that a day came when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD. And Satan also came among them to present himself before the LORD.

mkjv@Job:2:2 @ And the LORD said to Satan, From where do you come? And Satan answered the LORD and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it.

mkjv@Job:2:3 @ And the LORD said unto Satan, Have you set your heart on My servant Job, that [there is] none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one who fears God and turns away from evil? And still he is keeping hold of his integrity, although you moved Me against him to destroy him without cause.

mkjv@Job:2:4 @ And Satan answered the LORD and said, Skin for skin, yea, all that a man has he will give for his life.

mkjv@Job:2:5 @ But indeed put forth Your hand now, and touch his bone and his flesh, and he will curse You to Your face.

mkjv@Job:2:6 @ And the LORD said to Satan, Behold, he [is] in your hand, but save his life.

mkjv@Job:2:7 @ And Satan went forth from the presence of the LORD and struck Job with sore boils from the sole of his foot to the top of his head.

mkjv@Job:2:8 @ And he took a broken piece of pottery to scrape himself with. And he sat down among the ashes.

mkjv@Job:2:9 @ And his wife said to him, Do you still hold to your integrity? Curse God and die!

mkjv@Job:2:10 @ But he said to her, You speak as one of the foolish ones speak. What? Shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil? In all this Job did not sin with his lips.

mkjv@Job:2:11 @ And Job's three friends heard [of] all this evil that had come upon him, and they each one came from his own place: Eliphaz the Temanite, and Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite. For they had met together to come to mourn with him and to comfort him.

mkjv@Job:2:12 @ And when they lifted up their eyes afar off, and did not know him, they lifted up their voice and wept. And each one tore his robe, and [they] sprinkled dust upon their heads toward Heaven.

mkjv@Job:2:13 @ And they sat down with him upon the ground seven days and seven nights. And no one spoke a word to him, for they saw that [his] grief was very great.

mkjv@Job:3:1 @ After this Job opened his mouth and cursed his day.

mkjv@Job:3:2 @ And Job spoke and said,

mkjv@Job:3:3 @ Let the day perish in [which] I was born, and the night [which] said, A man-child is conceived.

mkjv@Job:3:4 @ Let that day be darkness. Let not God look upon it from above, neither let the light shine upon it.

mkjv@Job:3:5 @ Let darkness and the shadow of death claim it. Let a cloud dwell upon it; Let the blackness of the day terrify it.

mkjv@Job:3:6 @ As [for] that night, let darkness seize upon it. Let it not rejoice among the days of the year, Let it not come into the number of the months.

mkjv@Job:3:7 @ Lo, let that night be barren; let no joyful voice come in it.

mkjv@Job:3:8 @ Let those curse it who curse the day, who are ready to stir up Leviathan.

mkjv@Job:3:9 @ Let the stars of its twilight be dark; let it look for light, but have none. Let it not see the eyelids of the dawn.

mkjv@Job:3:10 @ For it did not shut up the doors of my [mother's] womb, nor hide sorrow from my eyes.

mkjv@Job:3:11 @ Why did I not die from the womb, come from the womb and expire?

mkjv@Job:3:12 @ Why did the knees go before me; or why the breasts, that I should suck?

mkjv@Job:3:13 @ For now I should have lain still and been quiet; I should have slept. Then I would have been at rest

mkjv@Job:3:14 @ with kings and wise men of the earth, who built ruins for themselves,

mkjv@Job:3:15 @ or with princes who had gold, who filled their houses with silver;

mkjv@Job:3:16 @ or as a hidden untimely birth I would not have been, like infants who did not see light.

mkjv@Job:3:17 @ There the wicked cease [from] troubling, and there the weary are at rest;

mkjv@Job:3:18 @ the prisoners are at rest together; they hear not the voice of the slave driver.

mkjv@Job:3:19 @ The small and the great are there, and the slave [is] free from his master.

mkjv@Job:3:20 @ Why is light given to one who is in misery, and life to the bitter [in] soul,

mkjv@Job:3:21 @ who is waiting for death, but [it] comes not; and dig for it more than [for] treasures?

mkjv@Job:3:22 @ They are rejoicing to exultation. They are glad when they can find the grave.

mkjv@Job:3:23 @ To a man whose way is hidden, God has made a hedge about him.

mkjv@Job:3:24 @ For my sighing comes before I eat, and my groanings are poured out like the waters.

mkjv@Job:3:25 @ For the thing which I greatly feared has come upon me, and that which I was afraid of has come to me.

mkjv@Job:3:26 @ I was not in safety, nor did I have rest, nor was I quiet; yet trouble comes.

mkjv@Job:4:1 @ And Eliphaz the Temanite answered:

mkjv@Job:4:2 @ Shall one try a word with you, you [who] are weary? But who can hold back with words?

mkjv@Job:4:3 @ Behold, you have instructed many, and you have made the weak hands strong.

mkjv@Job:4:4 @ Your words have upheld him who was falling, and you have made strong the feeble knees.

mkjv@Job:4:5 @ But now it has come upon you, and you faint. It touches you, and you are troubled.

mkjv@Job:4:6 @ [Is] not your reverence your hope? Is not your hope the uprightness of your ways?

mkjv@Job:4:7 @ Remember, please, who [ever] perished, being innocent? Or where were the righteous cut off?

mkjv@Job:4:8 @ As I have seen, the ones who plow iniquity and sow wickedness reap the same.

mkjv@Job:4:9 @ By the blast of God they perish, and by the breath of His nostrils they are destroyed.

mkjv@Job:4:10 @ The roar of the lion, and the voice of the fierce lion, and the teeth of the young lions, are broken.

mkjv@Job:4:11 @ The strong lion perishes for lack of prey, and the strong lion's cubs are scattered abroad.

mkjv@Job:4:12 @ And a word was secretly brought to me, and my ear received a little of it.

mkjv@Job:4:13 @ In thoughts from the visions of the night, when deep sleep falls upon men,

mkjv@Job:4:14 @ fear came upon me, and trembling, which made all my bones shake.

mkjv@Job:4:15 @ And a spirit passed before my face; the hair of my flesh stood up.

mkjv@Job:4:16 @ It stood still, but I could not tell the form of it. An image [was] before my eyes; silence; then I heard a voice,

mkjv@Job:4:17 @ Shall mortal [man] be more just than God? Shall a man be more pure than his Maker?

mkjv@Job:4:18 @ Behold, He puts no trust in His servants, and His angels He charges with folly!

mkjv@Job:4:19 @ How much less [in] those who live in houses of clay, whose foundation [is] in the dust, [who] are crushed before the moth?

mkjv@Job:4:20 @ They are destroyed from morning till evening; they perish forever without anyone caring.

mkjv@Job:4:21 @ Is not their tent cord plucked up within them? They die, but not with wisdom.

mkjv@Job:5:1 @ Call now, is there anyone who will answer you? And to which of the saints will you turn?

mkjv@Job:5:2 @ For vexation kills the fool, and envy slays the simple one.

mkjv@Job:5:3 @ I have seen the fool taking root, but suddenly I cursed his dwelling place.

mkjv@Job:5:4 @ His children are far from safety, and they are crushed in the gate, nor [is there] any to deliver [them].

mkjv@Job:5:5 @ Their harvest the hungry eats, and takes it even out of the thorns; and the snare swallows up their wealth.

mkjv@Job:5:6 @ For affliction does not come forth from the dust, nor does trouble spring up out of the ground;

mkjv@Job:5:7 @ but man is born to trouble, as the sparks fly upward.

mkjv@Job:5:8 @ Truly, I would seek to God, and to God I would put my plea,

mkjv@Job:5:9 @ [Who is] doing great things, even beyond searching; marvelous things without number,

mkjv@Job:5:10 @ who gives rain on the earth and sends waters on the field,

mkjv@Job:5:11 @ to set on high those who are low, so that those who mourn may be lifted up [to] safety;

mkjv@Job:5:12 @ frustrating the plans of the crafty, nor did their hands do wisely.

mkjv@Job:5:13 @ [He] takes the wise in their own craftiness; and the counsel of the wily is carried headlong.

mkjv@Job:5:14 @ They meet with darkness in the day time, and grope in the noonday as in the night.

mkjv@Job:5:15 @ But He saves the poor from the sword, from their mouth, and from the hand of the mighty.

mkjv@Job:5:16 @ And there is hope for the weak, and injustice shuts her mouth.

mkjv@Job:5:17 @ Behold, blessed [is] the man whom God corrects. Therefore do not despise the chastening of the Almighty.

mkjv@Job:5:18 @ For He makes sore, and binds up; He wounds, and His hands make whole.

mkjv@Job:5:19 @ He will deliver you in six troubles; yea, in seven no evil shall touch you.

mkjv@Job:5:20 @ In famine He shall redeem you from death; and in war from the power of the sword.

mkjv@Job:5:21 @ You shall be hidden from the whip of the tongue; neither shall you be afraid of robbery when it comes.

mkjv@Job:5:22 @ At destruction and famine you shall laugh; neither shall you be afraid of the beasts of the earth.

mkjv@Job:5:23 @ For you [shall be] in covenant with the stones of the field; and the beasts of the field shall be at peace with you.

mkjv@Job:5:24 @ And you shall know that your tent [is in] peace; and you shall visit your fold, and shall miss nothing.

mkjv@Job:5:25 @ And [you] shall know that your seed [will be] numerous, and your offspring as the grass of the earth.

mkjv@Job:5:26 @ You shall come to [your] grave in a full age, like a shock of grain comes in its season.

mkjv@Job:5:27 @ Behold this: we have searched it; it is so. Hear it and know for yourself.

mkjv@Job:6:1 @ And Job answered and said,

mkjv@Job:6:2 @ Oh that my grief were but weighed, and my ruin laid in the balances together!

mkjv@Job:6:3 @ For now it would be heavier than the sand of the sea; therefore my words have been rash.

mkjv@Job:6:4 @ For the arrows of the Almighty [are] within me, their fury [is] drinking my spirit; the terrors of God are set against me.

mkjv@Job:6:5 @ Does the wild ass bray [when he has] grass? Or does the ox low over his fodder?

mkjv@Job:6:6 @ Can that which has no taste be eaten without salt? Or is there taste in the white of an egg?

mkjv@Job:6:7 @ My soul refuses to touch them; they [are] sickening food to me.

mkjv@Job:6:8 @ Oh that I might have my desire, and that God would grant the thing that I long for!

mkjv@Job:6:9 @ Even that it would please God to destroy me; that He would loose His hand and cut me off!

mkjv@Job:6:10 @ And it is yet my comfort; yea, I would rejoice in pain, though He did not spare me; for I have not hidden the words of the Holy One.

mkjv@Job:6:11 @ What [is] my strength, that I should hope? And what [is] my end, that I should be patient?

mkjv@Job:6:12 @ [Is] my strength the strength of stones? Or [is] my flesh bronze?

mkjv@Job:6:13 @ [Is] not my help in me? And is wisdom fully driven away from me?

mkjv@Job:6:14 @ To him who is afflicted, pity is [due] from his friend, but he forsakes the fear of the Almighty.

mkjv@Job:6:15 @ My brothers have dealt deceitfully as a torrent; they pass away as the streams of torrents,

mkjv@Job:6:16 @ [torrents] black from ice, in which the snow hides itself.

mkjv@Job:6:17 @ When they become warm, they go away; when it is hot, they vanish out of their place.

mkjv@Job:6:18 @ The paths of their way are turned aside; they go to nothing and are lost.

mkjv@Job:6:19 @ The troops of Tema looked; the companies of Sheba hoped for them.

mkjv@Job:6:20 @ They were ashamed because they had hoped; they came there and were ashamed.

mkjv@Job:6:21 @ Surely now you are like them; you see [my] casting down, and are afraid.

mkjv@Job:6:22 @ Did I say, Give to me? or, Offer a bribe for me from your wealth;

mkjv@Job:6:23 @ or, Deliver me from the enemy's hand; or, Redeem me from the hand of the mighty?

mkjv@Job:6:24 @ Teach me, and I will be silent; and cause me to understand where I have gone astray.

mkjv@Job:6:25 @ Right words are powerful, but what does your arguing argue?

mkjv@Job:6:26 @ Do you intend to criticize words, and the speeches of one who is hopeless, [that are] as wind?

mkjv@Job:6:27 @ Yea, you cause [anger] to fall on the fatherless, and you dig [a pit] for your friend.

mkjv@Job:6:28 @ And now, please look on me; for if I lie, [it is] before your face.

mkjv@Job:6:29 @ Turn back, please let there be no sin; yea, return again, my righteousness [is] in this matter.

mkjv@Job:6:30 @ Is there wrong in my tongue? Cannot my taste discern desirable things?

mkjv@Job:7:1 @ [Is there] not a warfare to man on earth? [Are] not his days also like the days of a hireling?

mkjv@Job:7:2 @ As a servant earnestly desires the shadow, and as a hireling looks for his wages,

mkjv@Job:7:3 @ so I am made to possess months of vanity, and weary nights are appointed to me.

mkjv@Job:7:4 @ When I lie down, I say, When shall I rise? But the night is long, and I am full of tossing to and fro until the dawning of the day.

mkjv@Job:7:5 @ My flesh is clothed with worms and clods of dust; my skin is broken and has run [afresh].

mkjv@Job:7:6 @ My days are swifter than a weaver's shuttle, and are ended without hope.

mkjv@Job:7:7 @ Remember that my life [is] a breath; my eye shall no more see good.

mkjv@Job:7:8 @ The eye of him who has seen me shall see me no [more]; Your eyes [are] on me, and I [am] gone.

mkjv@Job:7:9 @ [As] the cloud falls and vanishes away, so he who goes down to the grave shall come up no [more].

mkjv@Job:7:10 @ He shall return no more to his house, nor shall his place know him any more.

mkjv@Job:7:11 @ Therefore I will not hold my mouth; I will speak in the trouble of my spirit; I will complain in the bitterness of my soul.

mkjv@Job:7:12 @ Am I like the sea, or a whale, that You set a watch over me?

mkjv@Job:7:13 @ When I say, My bed shall comfort me, my couch shall ease my complaint,

mkjv@Job:7:14 @ then You scare me with dreams, and terrify me with visions;

mkjv@Job:7:15 @ so that my soul chooses strangling, death rather than my life.

mkjv@Job:7:16 @ I despise [them]; I will not live always; let me alone, for my days [are] vanity.

mkjv@Job:7:17 @ What [is] man, that You should magnify him, and that You should set Your heart on him,

mkjv@Job:7:18 @ and visit him every morning, trying him every moment?

mkjv@Job:7:19 @ Until when will You look away from me, nor let me alone until I swallow down my spittle?

mkjv@Job:7:20 @ I have sinned. What shall I do to You, O Watcher of men? Why have You set me as a target for You, so that I am a burden to myself?

mkjv@Job:7:21 @ And why do You not pardon my transgression, and take away my iniquity? For now I shall sleep in the dust, and You shall seek me in the morning, but I [shall] not be.

mkjv@Job:8:1 @ And Bildad the Shuhite answered and said,

mkjv@Job:8:2 @ How long will you speak these things, since the words of your mouth [are like] a strong wind?

mkjv@Job:8:3 @ Does God pervert judgment? Or does the Almighty pervert justice?

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

mkjv@Job:8:5 @ if you would seek earnestly to God and make your prayer to the Almighty;

mkjv@Job:8:6 @ if you [were] pure and upright, surely now He would awake for you, and make the dwelling-place of your righteousness blessed.

mkjv@Job:8:7 @ And if your beginning was small, yet your end would greatly increase.

mkjv@Job:8:8 @ For please ask of the former age, and prepare yourself to the search of their fathers,

mkjv@Job:8:9 @ for we [are but of] yesterday and know nothing, because our days on earth [are] a shadow.

mkjv@Job:8:10 @ Shall they not teach you, [and] tell you, and speak words out of their heart?

mkjv@Job:8:11 @ Can the rush grow up without mire? Can the reed-grass grow without water?

mkjv@Job:8:12 @ While it [is] yet in its greenness, and not cut down, it dries out before any [other] herb.

mkjv@Job:8:13 @ So are the paths of all who forget God; and the hope of the ungodly shall perish.

mkjv@Job:8:14 @ His hope shall be cut off, and his trust [shall be] in a spider's web.

mkjv@Job:8:15 @ He shall lean on his house, but it shall not stand; he shall hold fast to it, but it shall not endure.

mkjv@Job:8:16 @ He [is] moist before the sun, and his branches shoot forth in his garden.

mkjv@Job:8:17 @ His roots are wrapped around the heap, [and] he sees the place of stones.

mkjv@Job:8:18 @ If he is destroyed from his place, then it shall deny him: I have not seen you.

mkjv@Job:8:19 @ Behold, this [is] the joy of his way, and out of the earth shall others grow.

mkjv@Job:8:20 @ Behold, God will not cast away the innocent, nor will He help the evildoers,

mkjv@Job:8:21 @ until He fills your mouth with laughter, and your lips with rejoicing.

mkjv@Job:8:22 @ Those who hate you shall be clothed with shame; and the tent of the wicked [shall be] no more.

mkjv@Job:9:1 @ And Job answered and said,

mkjv@Job:9:2 @ Truly I know [it is so], but how can man be just with God?

mkjv@Job:9:3 @ If he will argue with Him, he cannot answer Him one of a thousand.

mkjv@Job:9:4 @ [He is] wise in heart, and mighty in strength. Who has hardened [himself] against Him and been blessed;

mkjv@Job:9:5 @ [He] who removes the mountains, and they know it not, when He overturns them in His anger;

mkjv@Job:9:6 @ [He] who shakes the earth out of its place, and the pillars of it tremble;

mkjv@Job:9:7 @ the one speaking to the sun, and it does not rise; and seals up the stars;

mkjv@Job:9:8 @ who alone stretches out the heavens, and walks on the waves of the sea;

mkjv@Job:9:9 @ who made the Bear, Orion, and Pleiades, and the chambers of the south;

mkjv@Job:9:10 @ who is doing great things past finding out; yea, marvelous things without number?

mkjv@Job:9:11 @ Behold! He goes by me, and I do not see [Him]; He passes on also, but I do not perceive Him.

mkjv@Job:9:12 @ Behold, He takes away; who can turn Him back? Who will say to Him, What are You doing?

mkjv@Job:9:13 @ God will not withdraw His anger; the helpers of pride stoop under Him.

mkjv@Job:9:14 @ How much less shall I answer Him, [and] choose my arguments with Him?

mkjv@Job:9:15 @ Whom, though I were righteous, [yet] I would not answer; I seek mercy for my judgment.

mkjv@Job:9:16 @ If I had called and He had answered me, yet would I not believe that He had listened to my voice;

mkjv@Job:9:17 @ [He] who breaks me with a tempest, and multiplies my wounds without cause;

mkjv@Job:9:18 @ [who] will not allow me to take my breath, but fills me with bitterness.

mkjv@Job:9:19 @ If [I speak] of strength, lo, [He is] mighty! And if of judgment, who shall set me a time?

mkjv@Job:9:20 @ If I justify myself, my own mouth shall condemn me; [though] I [am] perfect, He shall declare me perverse.

mkjv@Job:9:21 @ [Though] I [were] perfect, yet I would not know my soul. I would despise my life.

mkjv@Job:9:22 @ It [is] One, therefore I said, He is consuming the perfect and the wicked.

mkjv@Job:9:23 @ If the whip kills suddenly, He will mock at the calamity of the innocent.

mkjv@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], then who [is] it?

mkjv@Job:9:25 @ Now my days are swifter than a runner; they flee away, they see no good.

mkjv@Job:9:26 @ They have passed away like the swift ships; like the eagle who swoops on the prey.

mkjv@Job:9:27 @ If I say, I will forget my complaint, I will depart from my heaviness and be of good cheer,

mkjv@Job:9:28 @ I am afraid of all my sorrows; I know that You will not hold me innocent.

mkjv@Job:9:29 @ I have been condemned; why then should I labor in vain?

mkjv@Job:9:30 @ If I wash myself with snow water, and make my hands ever so clean,

mkjv@Job:9:31 @ yet You will plunge me into the ditch and my own clothes shall despise me.

mkjv@Job:9:32 @ For [He is] not a man, as I [am, that] I should answer Him, [that] we should come together in judgment;

mkjv@Job:9:33 @ there is no mediator between us, [who] might lay his hand on us both.

mkjv@Job:9:34 @ Let Him take His rod away from me, and let not His fear make me afraid;

mkjv@Job:9:35 @ [then] would I speak and not fear Him; for [it is] not so with me.

mkjv@Job:10:1 @ My soul is weary of my life; I will leave my complaint on my self; I will speak in the bitterness of my soul.

mkjv@Job:10:2 @ I will say to God, Do not condemn me; make me know why You contend with me.

mkjv@Job:10:3 @ Is [it] good to You that You should press down, that You should despise the work of Your hands, and shine on the counsel of the wicked?

mkjv@Job:10:4 @ [Have] You eyes of flesh? Or do You see as a man sees?

mkjv@Job:10:5 @ [Are] Your days like the days of man? [Are] Your years like man's days,

mkjv@Job:10:6 @ that You seek out my iniquity, and search for my sin?

mkjv@Job:10:7 @ You know that I am not wicked; and [there is] none who can deliver out of Your hand.

mkjv@Job:10:8 @ Your hands have made me and shaped me, together all around; yet You destroy me.

mkjv@Job:10:9 @ Remember, I beseech You, that You have formed me as the clay; and will You bring me into the dust again?

mkjv@Job:10:10 @ Have You not poured me out like milk, and curdled me like cheese?

mkjv@Job:10:11 @ You have clothed me with skin and flesh, and have fenced me with bones and sinews.

mkjv@Job:10:12 @ You have granted me life and favor, and Your providence has preserved my spirit.

mkjv@Job:10:13 @ And these have You hidden in Your heart; I know that this [was] with You.

mkjv@Job:10:14 @ If I sin, then You mark me, and You will not acquit me from my iniquity.

mkjv@Job:10:15 @ If I am wicked, woe to me; and [if] I am righteous, I will not lift up my head, [being] filled with shame, and looking on my affliction.

mkjv@Job:10:16 @ For it increases! You hunt me as a fierce lion; and again You show Yourself marvelous on me.

mkjv@Job:10:17 @ You renew Your witnesses against me, and increase Your anger on me; changes and warfare [are] against me.

mkjv@Job:10:18 @ Why then have You brought me from the womb? Oh that I had given up the spirit, and no eye had seen me!

mkjv@Job:10:19 @ I should have been as though I had not been; I would have been carried from the womb to the grave.

mkjv@Job:10:20 @ Are not my days few? Cease [then, and] let me alone, that I may take comfort a little,

mkjv@Job:10:21 @ before I go, and I shall not return, even to the land of darkness and the shadow of death;

mkjv@Job:10:22 @ a land of obscurity, the darkness of the shadow of death, without any order, and the shining [is] as darkness.

mkjv@Job:11:1 @ And Zophar the Naamathite answered and said,

mkjv@Job:11:2 @ Should not the multitude of words be answered? And should a man full of talk be justified?

mkjv@Job:11:3 @ Should your lies make men silent? And will you mock and no one make [you] ashamed?

mkjv@Job:11:4 @ For you have said, My doctrine [is] pure, and I am clean in Your eyes.

mkjv@Job:11:5 @ But who will grant that God would speak, and open His lips against you,

mkjv@Job:11:6 @ and would tell you the secrets of His wisdom, that sound wisdom [is] manifold? Know therefore that God forgets for you [some] of your iniquity.

mkjv@Job:11:7 @ Can you by searching find out God? Can you perfectly find out the Almighty?

mkjv@Job:11:8 @ Heights of the heavens! What can you do? [It is] deeper than hell, what can you know?

mkjv@Job:11:9 @ The measure of it [is] longer than the earth, and broader than the sea.

mkjv@Job:11:10 @ If He passes through and shuts up, or gathers together, then who can turn Him back?

mkjv@Job:11:11 @ For He knows vain men; and when He sees wickedness, will He not search [it]?

mkjv@Job:11:12 @ For foolish man would be wise, and man is born a wild ass's colt.

mkjv@Job:11:13 @ If you prepare your heart and stretch out your hands toward Him;

mkjv@Job:11:14 @ if iniquity [is] in your hand, put it far away, and do not let wickedness dwell in your tents;

mkjv@Job:11:15 @ surely then you shall lift up your face without spot; yea, you shall be steadfast and shall not fear;

mkjv@Job:11:16 @ for you shall forget [your] misery, and you shall remember [it] as waters that pass away.

mkjv@Job:11:17 @ And [your] lifetime shall be clearer than the noonday; though [there be] darkness, you shall be as the morning.

mkjv@Job:11:18 @ And you shall be safe, because there is hope; yea, you shall look around [you], and you shall take your rest in safety.

mkjv@Job:11:19 @ You shall lie down, and none [shall] make you afraid. Yea, many shall seek your favor.

mkjv@Job:11:20 @ But the eyes of the wicked shall fail, and they shall have no escape, and their hope [shall be like] the giving up of the spirit.

mkjv@Job:12:1 @ And Job answered and said,

mkjv@Job:12:2 @ For truly you [are] the people, and wisdom will die with you.

mkjv@Job:12:3 @ But I have understanding as well as you; I do not fall [short] of you; yes, who does not know such things as these?

mkjv@Job:12:4 @ I [am] a laughing-stock to his friends; who calls on God, and He answers him; the just, the upright one [is] a mockery;

mkjv@Job:12:5 @ a flaming brand despised in the thoughts of him who feels secure; [it is] ready for those with slipping feet.

mkjv@Job:12:6 @ The tents of robbers are at peace, and those who provoke God [are] secure, in whatever God brings to their hand.

mkjv@Job:12:7 @ But now ask the animals, and they shall teach you; and the birds of the air, and they shall tell you;

mkjv@Job:12:8 @ or speak to the earth, and it shall teach you; and the fish of the sea shall declare [it] to you;

mkjv@Job:12:9 @ who of all these does not know that the hand of the LORD has done this?

mkjv@Job:12:10 @ In whose hand [is] the soul of every living thing, and the breath of all flesh, [even] of man?

mkjv@Job:12:11 @ Does not the ear try words? And does not the mouth taste its food?

mkjv@Job:12:12 @ With the aged [is] wisdom, and understanding in length of days.

mkjv@Job:12:13 @ With Him [is] wisdom and strength; He has wisdom and understanding.

mkjv@Job:12:14 @ Behold, He breaks down, and it can not be built up again; He shuts up a man, and no one opens.

mkjv@Job:12:15 @ Behold, He withholds the waters, and they dry up; also He sends them out, and they overturn the earth.

mkjv@Job:12:16 @ With Him [is] strength and sound wisdom; the deceived and the deceiver [are] His.

mkjv@Job:12:17 @ He leads wise men away stripped, and makes the judges fools.

mkjv@Job:12:18 @ He cuts away the bonds of kings, and binds their loins with a girdle.

mkjv@Job:12:19 @ He leads priests away stripped, and overthrows the mighty.

mkjv@Job:12:20 @ [He] removes the speech of the men of trust, and takes away the understanding of the aged.

mkjv@Job:12:21 @ He pours scorn on princes, and unties the belt of the mighty.

mkjv@Job:12:22 @ He discovers deep things out of darkness, and brings the shadow of death to light.

mkjv@Job:12:23 @ He gives greatness to the nations, and destroys them. He spreads out the nations, and leads them away.

mkjv@Job:12:24 @ He takes away the heart of the chief of the people of the land, and causes them to wander in a wilderness [where there is] no path.

mkjv@Job:12:25 @ They grope in the dark without light, and He makes them to stagger like [a] drunkard.

mkjv@Job:13:1 @ Lo, my eye has seen all this, my ear has heard and understood it.

mkjv@Job:13:2 @ What you know, I know [also]; I do not fall [short] of you.

mkjv@Job:13:3 @ Surely I would speak to the Almighty, and I desire to argue my case before God.

mkjv@Job:13:4 @ But you [are] imputers of lies; you [are] all worthless healers.

mkjv@Job:13:5 @ Oh that you would stop speaking entirely! And it would be your wisdom.

mkjv@Job:13:6 @ Hear now my reasoning, and listen to the pleadings of my lips.

mkjv@Job:13:7 @ Would you speak unrighteously for God, and talk deceitfully for Him?

mkjv@Job:13:8 @ Will you lift up His person, or contend for God?

mkjv@Job:13:9 @ Is it good that He should search you out? Or as one man mocks another, do you mock Him?

mkjv@Job:13:10 @ He will surely blame you, if you secretly lift up persons.

mkjv@Job:13:11 @ Shall not His highness make you afraid, and His dread fall on you?

mkjv@Job:13:12 @ Your remembered sayings [are] like ashes, your bodies like bodies of clay.

mkjv@Job:13:13 @ Be quiet. Let me alone so that I may speak, and let come on me what may.

mkjv@Job:13:14 @ Why do I take my flesh in my teeth and put my life in my hand?

mkjv@Job:13:15 @ Though he slay me, I will not wait, but I will maintain my own ways before Him.

mkjv@Job:13:16 @ He also [is] my salvation, for an ungodly one shall not come before Him.

mkjv@Job:13:17 @ Listen carefully to my words, and let what I say be in your ears.

mkjv@Job:13:18 @ Behold now, I have set [my] cause in order; I know that I shall be justified.

mkjv@Job:13:19 @ Who [is] he [that] will plead for me, for now, I would be quiet and expire.

mkjv@Job:13:20 @ Only do not do two [things] to me; then I will not hide myself from You.

mkjv@Job:13:21 @ Withdraw Your hand far from me, and let not Your fear make me afraid.

mkjv@Job:13:22 @ Then call, and I will answer; or let me speak, and answer You me.

mkjv@Job:13:23 @ How many [are] my iniquities and sins? Make known my transgressions and my sin.

mkjv@Job:13:24 @ Why do You hide Your face, and hold me for Your enemy?

mkjv@Job:13:25 @ Will You terrify a leaf driven to and fro? Will You pursue the dry stubble?

mkjv@Job:13:26 @ For You write bitter things against me, and make me to possess the sins of my youth.

mkjv@Job:13:27 @ You put my feet also in the stocks, and look closely to all my paths; You set a limit for the soles of my feet.

mkjv@Job:13:28 @ And he wears out like a rotten thing, like a garment that a moth eats.

mkjv@Job:14:1 @ Man born of woman [is] of few days, and full of trouble.

mkjv@Job:14:2 @ He comes forth like a flower, and withers; he also flees as a shadow, and does not stand.

mkjv@Job:14:3 @ And You open Your eyes on such a one, and bring me into judgment with You.

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

mkjv@Job:14:5 @ For his days [are] fixed, the number of his months [is] with You, and You have set his bounds so that he cannot pass;

mkjv@Job:14:6 @ look away from him, so that he may rest until he shall finish his day, as a hireling.

mkjv@Job:14:7 @ For there is hope of a tree, if it is cut down, that it will sprout again, and its tender branch will not cease.

mkjv@Job:14:8 @ Though its root becomes old in the earth, and its stump dies in the dust,

mkjv@Job:14:9 @ [yet] at the scent of water it will bud and bring forth branches like a plant.

mkjv@Job:14:10 @ But man dies and is cut off; and man expires, and where [is] he?

mkjv@Job:14:11 @ [As] the waters fail from the sea, and a river falls away and dries up,

mkjv@Job:14:12 @ so man lies down and does not rise. Till the heavens [are] no more, they shall not awake, nor be awakened out of their sleep.

mkjv@Job:14:13 @ Who will grant [that] You would hide me in the grave, that You would keep me secret, until Your wrath is past, that You would set me a fixed time and remember me?

mkjv@Job:14:14 @ If a man die, shall he revive? All the days of my warfare I will wait, until my change comes.

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

mkjv@Job:14:16 @ For now You number my steps; do You not watch over my sin?

mkjv@Job:14:17 @ My transgression [is] sealed up in a bag, and You cover over my iniquity.

mkjv@Job:14:18 @ And surely a falling mountain crumbles away, and the rock moves out of its place.

mkjv@Job:14:19 @ The waters wear away the stones; the outpouring of it washes the dust of the earth; and You cause the hope of man to perish.

mkjv@Job:14:20 @ You overpower him forever, and he passes; You change his face, and send him away.

mkjv@Job:14:21 @ His sons come to honor, and he knows it not; they fall, but he does not mark [it].

mkjv@Job:14:22 @ But his flesh is pained within him; and his soul mourns over him.

mkjv@Job:15:1 @ And Eliphaz the Temanite answered and said,

mkjv@Job:15:2 @ [Should] a wise man answer with windy knowledge, and fill his belly with the east wind?

mkjv@Job:15:3 @ Should he reason with talk [that is] not useful, or with speeches which have no profit?

mkjv@Job:15:4 @ Yea, you do away with fear, and take away prayer before God.

mkjv@Job:15:5 @ For your iniquity teaches your mouth, and you choose the tongue of the crafty.

mkjv@Job:15:6 @ Your own mouth condemns you, and not I; yes, your own lips testify against you.

mkjv@Job:15:7 @ [Were] you the first man born? Or were you made before the hills?

mkjv@Job:15:8 @ Have you heard the secret counsel of God? And do you limit wisdom to yourself?

mkjv@Job:15:9 @ What do you know that we do not know, or understand that is not with us?

mkjv@Job:15:10 @ With us [are] both the gray-headed and aged, mightier than your father [as to] days.

mkjv@Job:15:11 @ [Are] the comforts of God small with you, and a word [dealing] gently with you?

mkjv@Job:15:12 @ Why does your heart carry you away? And what do your eyes wink at,

mkjv@Job:15:13 @ that you turn your spirit against God, and let [such] words go out of your mouth?

mkjv@Job:15:14 @ What [is] man, that he should be clean? And [what is he] born of a woman that he should be righteous?

mkjv@Job:15:15 @ Behold, He puts no trust in His saints; yea, the heavens are not clean in His sight.

mkjv@Job:15:16 @ How much more hateful and filthy [is] man, who drinks iniquity like water?

mkjv@Job:15:17 @ I will show you; hear me; and what I have seen I will declare,

mkjv@Job:15:18 @ that which wise men have told, and have not hidden from their fathers;

mkjv@Job:15:19 @ to them alone the earth was given, and no stranger passed among them.

mkjv@Job:15:20 @ The wicked man labors in pain all his days, and the number of years is hidden for the ruthless one.

mkjv@Job:15:21 @ A dreadful sound of things [is] in his ears; the destroyer shall come to him in peace.

mkjv@Job:15:22 @ He does not believe in a return from darkness, but he [is] awaited by the sword.

mkjv@Job:15:23 @ He wanders for bread, saying, Where [is it]? He knows that the day of darkness is ready at hand.

mkjv@Job:15:24 @ Trouble and pain shall terrify him; they shall overpower him, as a king ready for the battle;

mkjv@Job:15:25 @ because he stretches out his hand against God, and sets himself against the Almighty.

mkjv@Job:15:26 @ He runs at him, with a [stiff] neck, with the thick layers of his shields,

mkjv@Job:15:27 @ because he has covered his face with fat; he has put fat on [his] loins.

mkjv@Job:15:28 @ And he lives [in] cut off cities, [in] houses where none [are] living, which are ready [to become] heaps.

mkjv@Job:15:29 @ He shall not be rich, nor shall his wealth hold out, nor shall he stretch out his gain on the earth.

mkjv@Job:15:30 @ He shall not escape from darkness; the flame shall dry up his branches, and at the breath of his mouth he shall turn away.

mkjv@Job:15:31 @ Let not [he] being deceived trust in vanity; for vanity shall be his reward.

mkjv@Job:15:32 @ It shall be done before his time, and his branch shall not be green.

mkjv@Job:15:33 @ He shall shake off its unripe grape, as the vine; and shall cast off his flower like the olive.

mkjv@Job:15:34 @ For the company of the ungodly [shall be] barren, and fire shall devour the tents of bribery.

mkjv@Job:15:35 @ They conceive mischief, and bring forth evil, and their belly prepares deceit.

mkjv@Job:16:1 @ And Job answered and said,

mkjv@Job:16:2 @ I have heard many such [things]. You [are] all miserable comforters.

mkjv@Job:16:3 @ [Shall] words of wind [have] an end? Or what provokes you that you should answer?

mkjv@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.

mkjv@Job:16:5 @ I might make you strong with my mouth, and the moving of my lips would spare you.

mkjv@Job:16:6 @ Though I speak, my pain is not held back, and [though] I forbear, in what way am I eased?

mkjv@Job:16:7 @ But now He has made me weary; You have made all my company desolate.

mkjv@Job:16:8 @ And You have plucked me, for it is a witness, and my failure rises up against me, and it answers to my face.

mkjv@Job:16:9 @ His anger has torn and hated [me]; He gnashes on me with His teeth; my enemy sharpens his eyes at me;

mkjv@Job:16:10 @ They have gaped on me with their mouth; and have scornfully beaten me on the cheek; they gather themselves against me.

mkjv@Job:16:11 @ God has delivered me to the perverse; and turned me over into the hands of the wicked.

mkjv@Job:16:12 @ I was at ease, but He has broken me in pieces; yea, [He has] also taken [me] by my neck and shaken me to pieces and set me up for His mark.

mkjv@Job:16:13 @ His archers hem me in; He splits my inward parts, and does not spare; He pours out my gall on the ground.

mkjv@Job:16:14 @ He breaks me with break on break; He runs on me like a giant.

mkjv@Job:16:15 @ I have sewed sackcloth on my skin and thrust my horn in the dust.

mkjv@Job:16:16 @ My face is reddened from weeping, and on my eyelids [is] the shadow of death;

mkjv@Job:16:17 @ though no violence [is] in my hand, and my prayer [is] pure.

mkjv@Job:16:18 @ Oh earth, do not cover my blood, and let not my cry have a place.

mkjv@Job:16:19 @ Also now, behold, my Witness [is] in Heaven, and He who testifies of me [is] on high.

mkjv@Job:16:20 @ My friends scorn me; my eye pours out [tears] to God.

mkjv@Job:16:21 @ Oh that one might plead for a man with God, as a man [pleads] for his neighbor!

mkjv@Job:16:22 @ For the years [that are few] will come, and I shall go the way from where I shall not return.

mkjv@Job:17:1 @ My spirit is broken, my days are ended, the graves [are] ready for me.

mkjv@Job:17:2 @ [Are] not mockeries with me? Yea, my eye rests on their insults.

mkjv@Job:17:3 @ Please lay down a pledge for me with Yourself; who [is] he [who] will strike hands with me?

mkjv@Job:17:4 @ For You have hidden their heart from understanding; therefore You shall not lift [them] up.

mkjv@Job:17:5 @ He who for a share informs [against] friends, even the eyes of his children shall fail.

mkjv@Job:17:6 @ He has made me also a byword of the peoples; and I am one in whose face they spit.

mkjv@Job:17:7 @ My eye also is dim from grief; and all my members [are] like a shadow.

mkjv@Job:17:8 @ Upright ones shall be amazed at this, and the innocent shall stir himself up against the ungodly.

mkjv@Job:17:9 @ The righteous also shall hold [on] his way, and he who has clean hands adds strength.

mkjv@Job:17:10 @ And now all of them, go back, and please come again; and I shall not find among you a wise man.

mkjv@Job:17:11 @ My days are past, my purposes [are] broken off, the desires of my heart.

mkjv@Job:17:12 @ They set night for day; the light [is] near in the face of darkness.

mkjv@Job:17:13 @ If I wait for the grave [as] my home, I have made my bed in the darkness;

mkjv@Job:17:14 @ I have said to corruption, You [are] my father; to the worm, My mother and my sister!

mkjv@Job:17:15 @ And where then [is] my hope? And [as for] my hope, who shall see it?

mkjv@Job:17:16 @ They shall go down [to] the bars of the pit, when [our] descent together [is] in the dust.

mkjv@Job:18:1 @ And Bildad the Shuhite answered and said,

mkjv@Job:18:2 @ Until when will you set a snare for words? Understand, and afterwards we will speak.

mkjv@Job:18:3 @ Why are we counted as cattle, or seem stupid in your sight?

mkjv@Job:18:4 @ He tears himself in his anger; [shall] the earth [be] forsaken for you? And shall the rock be moved out of its place?

mkjv@Job:18:5 @ Yes, the light of the wicked shall be put out, and the spark of his fire shall not shine.

mkjv@Job:18:6 @ The light shall be dark in his tent, and his lamp shall be put out with him.

mkjv@Job:18:7 @ The steps of his strength shall be hampered, and his own plans shall throw him down.

mkjv@Job:18:8 @ For he is thrown into a net by his own feet, and he walks on a net.

mkjv@Job:18:9 @ The trap shall take [him] by the heel, and the noose shall hold sway over him.

mkjv@Job:18:10 @ The pitfall [is] laid for him in the ground, and a trap for him in the way.

mkjv@Job:18:11 @ Terrors shall make him afraid on every side, and shall dash him at his feet.

mkjv@Job:18:12 @ His strength shall be hunger-bitten, and trouble shall be ready at his side.

mkjv@Job:18:13 @ It shall devour the parts of his skin; the first-born of death consumes his parts.

mkjv@Job:18:14 @ His hope shall be rooted out of his tent, and you marched to the king of terrors.

mkjv@Job:18:15 @ What [is] not his shall dwell in his tent; brimstone shall be scattered on his home.

mkjv@Job:18:16 @ His roots shall be dried up beneath, and his branch shall wither above.

mkjv@Job:18:17 @ His memory shall perish from the earth, and there is no name to him on the face of the street.

mkjv@Job:18:18 @ They drive him from light to darkness, and they make him flee from the world.

mkjv@Job:18:19 @ He shall have neither son nor kinsman among his people, nor [any] remaining in his dwellings.

mkjv@Job:18:20 @ Those after him shall be amazed at his day; and those before were seized [with] horror.

mkjv@Job:18:21 @ Surely these [are] the dwellings of the perverse, and this the place [that] has not known God.

mkjv@Job:19:1 @ And Job answered and said,

mkjv@Job:19:2 @ How long will you torment my soul and break me in pieces with words?

mkjv@Job:19:3 @ [And] this, ten times you have blamed me; you are not ashamed that you have wronged me.

mkjv@Job:19:4 @ And [if] indeed I have erred, my error remains with me.

mkjv@Job:19:5 @ If indeed you magnify yourself against me, and plead against me my misery,

mkjv@Job:19:6 @ know now that God has overthrown me, and His net has closed on me.

mkjv@Job:19:7 @ Behold, I cry out, Violence! And I am not answered. I cry aloud, but there is no justice.

mkjv@Job:19:8 @ He has fenced up my way so that I cannot pass, and He has set darkness in my paths.

mkjv@Job:19:9 @ He has stripped me of my glory, and has taken the crown from my head.

mkjv@Job:19:10 @ He has broken me on every side, and I am gone, and He has uprooted my hope like a tree.

mkjv@Job:19:11 @ He has also kindled His wrath against me, and to Himself He counts me as His enemy.

mkjv@Job:19:12 @ His troops come together and raise up their way against me, and camp around my tent.

mkjv@Job:19:13 @ He has put my brothers far from me, and my friends have truly turned away from me.

mkjv@Job:19:14 @ My people have fallen away, and my familiar friends have forgotten me.

mkjv@Job:19:15 @ Those who dwell in my house, and my slave-girls, count me as a stranger; I am a foreigner in their sight.

mkjv@Job:19:16 @ I called my servant, and he gave no answer; I must beg him with my mouth.

mkjv@Job:19:17 @ My breath is hated by my wife, and I must beg to the sons of my [mother's] womb.

mkjv@Job:19:18 @ Even young children despise me; I arise, and they speak against me.

mkjv@Job:19:19 @ All the men of my counsel detest me, even this one I loved has turned against me.

mkjv@Job:19:20 @ My bone clings to my skin and to my flesh, and I have escaped with the skin of my teeth.

mkjv@Job:19:21 @ Have pity on me! Have pity on me, my friends! For the hand of God has touched me.

mkjv@Job:19:22 @ Why do you, like God, persecute me and are not satisfied with my flesh?

mkjv@Job:19:23 @ Oh that my words were now written! Oh that they were engraved in a book!

mkjv@Job:19:24 @ [Oh that] they were cut with an iron pen and lead in the rock forever!

mkjv@Job:19:25 @ For I know [that] my Redeemer lives, and He shall rise on the earth at the last;

mkjv@Job:19:26 @ and even after they corrupt my skin, yet this: in my flesh I shall see God,

mkjv@Job:19:27 @ whom I shall see for myself, and my eyes shall behold, and not a stranger's; [though] My heart be exhausted in my bosom.

mkjv@Job:19:28 @ For you ought to say, Why do we persecute him, since the root of the matter is found in me?

mkjv@Job:19:29 @ Fear for yourselves because of the sword; for wrath [brings] the punishments of the sword, so that you may know [there is] a judgment.

mkjv@Job:20:1 @ And Zophar the Naamathite answered and said,

mkjv@Job:20:2 @ Therefore my thoughts cause me to answer, even because of my haste in me.

mkjv@Job:20:3 @ I have heard the rebuke meant to shame me, and the spirit of my understanding causes me to answer.

mkjv@Job:20:4 @ Do you know this from [days] of old, from the setting of man on earth,

mkjv@Job:20:5 @ that the exulting of the wicked [is] short, and the joy of the ungodly [is] for a moment?

mkjv@Job:20:6 @ Though his honor mounts up to the heavens, and his head reaches to the clouds,

mkjv@Job:20:7 @ he shall perish forever like his dung; they who see him shall say, Where [is] he?

mkjv@Job:20:8 @ He flies away like a dream, and shall not be found, and shall be chased away like a vision of the night.

mkjv@Job:20:9 @ An eye glimpsed him, but will not again; yea, his place shall not see him again.

mkjv@Job:20:10 @ His sons shall seek to please the poor, and his hands shall restore his wealth.

mkjv@Job:20:11 @ His bones are full of his youthful vigor, but it lies down with him in the dust.

mkjv@Job:20:12 @ Though wickedness is sweet in his mouth, [though] he hides it under his tongue;

mkjv@Job:20:13 @ [though] he spares it and will not leave it; yea, keeps it still in his mouth;

mkjv@Job:20:14 @ [yet] his food in his belly shall be turned; the gall of asps [is] within him.

mkjv@Job:20:15 @ He swallows riches, but vomits it; God shall cast them out of his belly.

mkjv@Job:20:16 @ He shall suck the poison of asps; the viper's tongue shall slay him.

mkjv@Job:20:17 @ He shall not see the rivers, the flowings of the brooks of honey and butter,

mkjv@Job:20:18 @ giving back his gain, and he will not eat. As to the wealth of his trading, even he shall not enjoy [it].

mkjv@Job:20:19 @ For he pressed down [and] forsook the poor; he stole a house, but he had not built it.

mkjv@Job:20:20 @ Surely he shall not know quietness in his belly; he will not escape with the things of desire.

mkjv@Job:20:21 @ None of his food shall be left; therefore his good will not last.

mkjv@Job:20:22 @ In the fullness of his plenty he shall be in trouble; every wretched one shall come on him.

mkjv@Job:20:23 @ It shall happen at the filling of his belly, [God] shall cast the fury of His wrath on him, and He shall rain on him while he is eating.

mkjv@Job:20:24 @ He shall flee from the iron weapon, a bow of bronze shall pierce him.

mkjv@Job:20:25 @ One draws it, and treads it from behind, even lightning from his gall; terror [is] on him.

mkjv@Job:20:26 @ All darkness [shall be] hidden in his secret places; a fire not blown shall consume him; those left in his tent shall be broken.

mkjv@Job:20:27 @ The heavens shall reveal his iniquity, and the earth rise up against him.

mkjv@Job:20:28 @ The increase of his house shall depart, and shall flow [away] in the day of his wrath.

mkjv@Job:20:29 @ This [is] the portion of a wicked man from God, and the inheritance of his word from God.

mkjv@Job:21:1 @ And Job answered and said,

mkjv@Job:21:2 @ Listen carefully to my speech, and let this be your comfort.

mkjv@Job:21:3 @ Rise with me and I shall speak; and after I have spoken, mock on.

mkjv@Job:21:4 @ [As for] me, is my complaint to man? And why should my spirit not be troubled?

mkjv@Job:21:5 @ Turn to me and be amazed, and lay [your] hand on [your] mouth.

mkjv@Job:21:6 @ And if I remember, I am afraid, and trembling takes hold on my flesh.

mkjv@Job:21:7 @ Why do the wicked live? They grow old and become mighty [in] power.

mkjv@Job:21:8 @ Their seed is established in their sight with them, and their offspring before their eyes.

mkjv@Job:21:9 @ Their houses [are] in peace, without fear; nor [is] the rod of God on them.

mkjv@Job:21:10 @ Their bull mates and does not fail; their cow calves, and does not cast her calf.

mkjv@Job:21:11 @ They send forth their little ones like a flock, and their children dance.

mkjv@Job:21:12 @ They lift up [voice] at the timbrel and harp, and rejoice at the sound of the flute.

mkjv@Job:21:13 @ They spend their days in good, and in a moment go down [to] the grave.

mkjv@Job:21:14 @ And they say to God, Depart from us; for we do not desire the knowledge of your ways;

mkjv@Job:21:15 @ what [is] the Almighty, that we should serve Him? And what profit should we have if we pray to Him?

mkjv@Job:21:16 @ Behold, their good [is] not in their hand; the wisdom of the wicked is far from me.

mkjv@Job:21:17 @ How often is the lamp of the wicked put out, and their trouble comes on them! He shares out pains in His anger;

mkjv@Job:21:18 @ they are as stubble before the wind, and as chaff [that] the storm steals away.

mkjv@Job:21:19 @ God lays up his iniquity for his children. He repays him, and he knows.

mkjv@Job:21:20 @ His eyes shall see his ruin, and he shall drink of the wrath of the Almighty.

mkjv@Job:21:21 @ For what [is] his pleasure in his house after him, and the number of his months is cut off?

mkjv@Job:21:22 @ Shall [any] teach God knowledge, since He shall judge the exalted?

mkjv@Job:21:23 @ One dies in his full strength, being wholly at ease and quiet.

mkjv@Job:21:24 @ His sides are full of milk, his bones are wet with marrow.

mkjv@Job:21:25 @ And another dies with bitter soul, and never eats with pleasure.

mkjv@Job:21:26 @ They lie down together in the dust, and the worms shall cover them.

mkjv@Job:21:27 @ Behold, I know your thoughts, and the plots which you wrongfully hatch against me.

mkjv@Job:21:28 @ For you say, Where [is] the house of the noble, and where the dwelling-places of the wicked?

mkjv@Job:21:29 @ [Did] you not ask those who go by the way? And do you not know their signs,

mkjv@Job:21:30 @ that the wicked is kept for the day of calamity? They shall be brought to the day of wrath.

mkjv@Job:21:31 @ Who shall declare his way to his face? And who shall repay him [what] he has done?

mkjv@Job:21:32 @ Yet he shall be brought to the grave, and watch shall be kept over [his] tomb.

mkjv@Job:21:33 @ And the clods of the valley shall be sweet to him and every man shall draw after him, as [there is] no numbering of those before him.

mkjv@Job:21:34 @ How then do you comfort me in vain; yea, in your answers remains transgression?

mkjv@Job:22:1 @ And Eliphaz the Temanite answered and said,

mkjv@Job:22:2 @ Can a man be useful to God, as he who is wise may be useful to himself?

mkjv@Job:22:3 @ [Is it] any pleasure to the Almighty that you are righteous, or gain [to Him] that you make your ways perfect?

mkjv@Job:22:4 @ Will He reprove you because of your reverence, or enter into judgment with you?

mkjv@Job:22:5 @ [Is] not your wickedness great, and your iniquity without measure?

mkjv@Job:22:6 @ For you have taken a pledge from your brother for nothing, and stripped the naked of their clothing.

mkjv@Job:22:7 @ You have not given water to the weary to drink, and you have held back bread from the hungry.

mkjv@Job:22:8 @ But [as for] the mighty man, he had the earth, and the honored man lived in it.

mkjv@Job:22:9 @ You have sent widows away empty, and the arms of the fatherless have been broken.

mkjv@Job:22:10 @ Therefore snares [are] all around you, and sudden fear troubles you;

mkjv@Job:22:11 @ or darkness, [so that] you cannot see; and a flood of waters covers you.

mkjv@Job:22:12 @ [Is] not God high in Heaven? And behold the leading stars, for [they] are high.

mkjv@Job:22:13 @ And you say, What does God know? Can He judge through the dark cloud?

mkjv@Job:22:14 @ Clouds [are] a covering to Him, so that He does not see; and He walks in the circuit of Heaven.

mkjv@Job:22:15 @ Do you keep to the old way which wicked men have walked?

mkjv@Job:22:16 @ [They] were seized, but [there was] not time; their foundation was poured out [by] a flood;

mkjv@Job:22:17 @ who said to God, Depart from us; and, What can the Almighty do to them?

mkjv@Job:22:18 @ Yet He filled their houses with substance; and the wisdom of the wicked is far from me.

mkjv@Job:22:19 @ The righteous see [it], and are glad; and the innocent laugh them to scorn.

mkjv@Job:22:20 @ Truly our foe is not cut down, and fire has eaten their wealth.

mkjv@Job:22:21 @ Now be of service with Him, and be at peace. Good shall come to you by them.

mkjv@Job:22:22 @ Please receive the law from His mouth and lay up His words in your heart.

mkjv@Job:22:23 @ If you return to the Almighty, you shall be built up; you shall put away injustice far from your tents.

mkjv@Job:22:24 @ Then you shall lay up gold like dust, and among the rock of the torrents of Ophir.

mkjv@Job:22:25 @ Yea, the Almighty shall be your gold and silver, [and] strength to you.

mkjv@Job:22:26 @ For then you shall have your delight in the Almighty, and shall lift up your face to God.

mkjv@Job:22:27 @ You shall make your prayer to Him, and He shall hear you, and you shall pay your vows.

mkjv@Job:22:28 @ You shall also order a thing, and it shall be fulfilled to you; and the light shall shine on your ways.

mkjv@Job:22:29 @ For they have humiliated [you], and you shall say, Pride! And He shall save the lowly of eyes.

mkjv@Job:22:30 @ He shall deliver [one] not innocent, and will deliver by the pureness of your hands.

mkjv@Job:23:1 @ And Job answered and said,

mkjv@Job:23:2 @ Even today [is] my complaint bitter; my stroke is heavier than my groaning.

mkjv@Job:23:3 @ Oh that I knew [where] I might find Him, [that] I might come even to His seat!

mkjv@Job:23:4 @ I would order [my] cause before Him, and fill my mouth with arguments.

mkjv@Job:23:5 @ I would know the words [which] He would answer me, and understand what He would say to me.

mkjv@Job:23:6 @ Will He plead against me with [His] great power? No, surely He would give heed to me.

mkjv@Job:23:7 @ There the righteous might reason with Him; and I would be delivered forever from my Judge.

mkjv@Job:23:8 @ Behold, I go forward, but He is not [there]; and backward, but I cannot see Him;

mkjv@Job:23:9 @ on the left hand, where He works, but I cannot behold Him. He turns to the right, but I do not see [Him].

mkjv@Job:23:10 @ But He knows the way that I take; [when] He has tried me, I shall come forth as gold.

mkjv@Job:23:11 @ My foot has held fast in His steps; I have kept His way, and have not fallen away;

mkjv@Job:23:12 @ nor have I gone back from the commandment of His lips; I treasured the words of His mouth more than my portion.

mkjv@Job:23:13 @ But He [is] in one [mind], and who can turn Him? Yea, what His soul desires, He does [it].

mkjv@Job:23:14 @ For He fulfilled my lot, and many [things] like these are with Him.

mkjv@Job:23:15 @ Therefore I am troubled at His presence; when I look, I am afraid of Him.

mkjv@Job:23:16 @ For God makes my heart soft, and the Almighty troubles me;

mkjv@Job:23:17 @ because I was not cut off before the darkness; yea, He covered the darkness from my face.

mkjv@Job:24:1 @ [Since] times are not hidden from the Almighty, why do those who know Him not see His days?

mkjv@Job:24:2 @ They remove the landmarks; they seize flocks and feed them.

mkjv@Job:24:3 @ They drive away the ass of the fatherless; they take the widow's ox for a pledge.

mkjv@Job:24:4 @ They turn the needy out of the way; the poor of the earth hide themselves together.

mkjv@Job:24:5 @ Behold, [like] wild asses in the desert, they go forth to their work, rising early for a prey. The wilderness [yields] food for them and for [their] children.

mkjv@Job:24:6 @ They reap his fodder in the field; and they gather the grapes of the wicked.

mkjv@Job:24:7 @ They lodge the naked without clothing, and [give] no covering in the cold.

mkjv@Job:24:8 @ They are wet with the showers of the mountains, and embrace the rock for lack of shelter.

mkjv@Job:24:9 @ They pluck the fatherless from the breast, and take a pledge from the poor.

mkjv@Job:24:10 @ They cause [him] to go naked without clothing, and they take away the sheaves from the hungry.

mkjv@Job:24:11 @ They press out oil between their walls; they tread their winepresses, and still suffer thirst.

mkjv@Job:24:12 @ Men groan from out of the city, and the soul of the wounded cries for help; yet God does not charge foolishness.

mkjv@Job:24:13 @ They are of those who rebel against the light; they know not His ways, nor stay in His paths.

mkjv@Job:24:14 @ The murderer rising with the light kills the poor and needy, and in the night he is a thief.

mkjv@Job:24:15 @ And the eye of the adulterer waits for the twilight, saying, No eye will see me; and he puts a covering on [his] face.

mkjv@Job:24:16 @ In the dark they dig through houses [which] they had marked for themselves in the daytime; they do not know the light.

mkjv@Job:24:17 @ For the morning [is] to them like the shadow of death; for they know the terrors of the shadow of death.

mkjv@Job:24:18 @ He [is] swift on the waters; their portion is cursed in the earth; he does not behold the way of the vineyards.

mkjv@Job:24:19 @ Drought and heat eat up the snow waters; [so does] the grave those who have sinned.

mkjv@Job:24:20 @ The womb shall forget him; the worm shall feed sweetly on him; he shall be remembered no more; and injustice shall be broken like a tree.

mkjv@Job:24:21 @ [He] ill-treats the women who bear no [children]; and does no good to the widow.

mkjv@Job:24:22 @ He also draws the mighty with his power; he rises up, and no one is sure of life.

mkjv@Job:24:23 @ He gives safety to him, and he rests on [it]; yet His eyes [are] on their ways.

mkjv@Job:24:24 @ They are lifted up for a little while, but are gone and brought low; they are gathered in like all [others], and are cut off like the heads of the ears of grain.

mkjv@Job:24:25 @ And if [it is] not [so], who will make me a liar, and make my speech worth nothing?

mkjv@Job:25:1 @ And Bildad the Shuhite answered and said,

mkjv@Job:25:2 @ Rule and fear are with Him; [He] makes peace in His high places.

mkjv@Job:25:3 @ Is there any number of His armies? And on whom does not His light arise?

mkjv@Job:25:4 @ How then can man be justified with God? Or how can [one] who is born of a woman be clean?

mkjv@Job:25:5 @ Look even to [the] moon, and it shines not; yea, the stars are not pure in His sight;

mkjv@Job:25:6 @ how much less man [who is] a maggot, and the son of man, [who is] a worm?

mkjv@Job:26:1 @ But Job answered and said,

mkjv@Job:26:2 @ How have you helped [the] powerless, [or] saved [the] arm that has no strength?

mkjv@Job:26:3 @ How have you advised [those] not wise, or fully declared wise plans?

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

mkjv@Job:26:5 @ The departed spirits tremble under the waters, and those who dwell in them.

mkjv@Job:26:6 @ Hell [is] naked before Him, and the Pit has no covering.

mkjv@Job:26:7 @ He stretches out the north over the empty place, [and] He hung the earth on nothing.

mkjv@Job:26:8 @ He binds up [the] waters in His thick clouds; and the cloud is not torn under them.

mkjv@Job:26:9 @ He covers the face of [His] throne, spreading His cloud on it.

mkjv@Job:26:10 @ He has described a circle on the surface of the waters to the boundary of light with darkness.

mkjv@Job:26:11 @ The pillars of the heavens tremble and are astonished at His rebuke.

mkjv@Job:26:12 @ He quiets the sea with His power, and by His understanding He shatters the proud.

mkjv@Job:26:13 @ By His Spirit the heavens [were] beautiful; His hand pierced the fleeing serpent.

mkjv@Job:26:14 @ Lo, these [are] the edges of His ways; but what a whisper of a word we hear of Him! And the thunder of His power who can understand?

mkjv@Job:27:1 @ And Job continued the lifting up of His speech, and said,

mkjv@Job:27:2 @ [As] God lives, He has taken away my judgment; and the Almighty has made my soul bitter.

mkjv@Job:27:3 @ As long as my breath [is] in me, and the spirit of God [is] in my nostrils,

mkjv@Job:27:4 @ my lips shall not speak wickedness, nor my tongue utter deceit.

mkjv@Job:27:5 @ Far be it from me that I should justify you; until I die I will not retract my integrity from me.

mkjv@Job:27:6 @ I hold fast by my righteousness, and I will not let it go; my heart shall not shame me [any] of my days.

mkjv@Job:27:7 @ Let my enemy be like the wicked, and he who rises up against me as the perverse.

mkjv@Job:27:8 @ For what [is] the hope of the ungodly when He cuts off, when God takes away his soul?

mkjv@Job:27:9 @ Will God hear his cry when trouble comes on him?

mkjv@Job:27:10 @ Will he delight himself in the Almighty? Will he always call on God?

mkjv@Job:27:11 @ I will teach you by the hand of God; that which [is] with the Almighty I will not hide.

mkjv@Job:27:12 @ Behold, all you have seen [it] yourselves; why then do you become completely vain?

mkjv@Job:27:13 @ This [is] the portion of a wicked man with God, and the inheritance of cruel men [which] they shall receive from the Almighty.

mkjv@Job:27:14 @ If his sons are multiplied, [the] sword [is] for them; and his offspring shall not be satisfied with bread.

mkjv@Job:27:15 @ Those who remain of him shall be buried in death; and his widows shall not weep.

mkjv@Job:27:16 @ Though he heaps up silver like the dust, and prepares clothing like the clay,

mkjv@Job:27:17 @ he may prepare, but the just shall put [it] on, and the innocent shall divide the silver.

mkjv@Job:27:18 @ He builds his house like a moth, and like a booth [that] a watchman makes.

mkjv@Job:27:19 @ The rich man shall lie down, but he shall not be gathered. He opens his eyes, and he [is] not.

mkjv@Job:27:20 @ Terrors overtake him like waters; a tempest steals him away in the night.

mkjv@Job:27:21 @ The east wind lifts him up, and he is gone; for it whirls him out of his place.

mkjv@Job:27:22 @ For it will hurl at him, and will not spare; he will surely flee out of its hand.

mkjv@Job:27:23 @ He shall clap His hands at him, and shall hiss him out of his place.

mkjv@Job:28:1 @ Surely there is a mine for the silver, and a place [where] they refine gold.

mkjv@Job:28:2 @ Iron is taken out of the earth, and bronze [is] melted [out of] the stone.

mkjv@Job:28:3 @ He sets an end to darkness, and to every extremity He searches out the stones of darkness and the shadow of death.

mkjv@Job:28:4 @ He opens a shaft far from the visitor; they are forgotten by [man's] foot; they hang far away from men, they swing to and fro.

mkjv@Job:28:5 @ [As to] the earth, out of it comes bread; and underneath it is turned up like fire.

mkjv@Job:28:6 @ Its stones [are] the place of sapphires; and it has dust of gold.

mkjv@Job:28:7 @ [There is] a path which no bird knows, nor has the vulture's eye caught sight of it;

mkjv@Job:28:8 @ the sons of pride have not walked on it, the lion has not passed by.

mkjv@Job:28:9 @ He puts forth His hand on the flinty places; He overturns the mountains by the roots.

mkjv@Job:28:10 @ He cuts out rivers among the rocks; and His eye sees every precious thing.

mkjv@Job:28:11 @ He holds back the floods from overflowing; and the hidden thing, He brings to light.

mkjv@Job:28:12 @ But where shall wisdom be found? And where [is] the place of understanding?

mkjv@Job:28:13 @ Man does not know the price of it; nor is it found in the land of the living.

mkjv@Job:28:14 @ The deep says, [It is] not in me; and the sea says, [It is] not in me.

mkjv@Job:28:15 @ Pure gold cannot be given in its stead, and silver be weighed as its price.

mkjv@Job:28:16 @ It cannot be weighed against the gold of Ophir, against precious onyx, or sapphire;

mkjv@Job:28:17 @ gold and the crystal cannot equal it, nor can it be exchanged for a vessel of fine gold.

mkjv@Job:28:18 @ No mention shall be made of coral, or of pearls; and the price of wisdom [is] above rubies.

mkjv@Job:28:19 @ The topaz of Ethiopia cannot equal it; it cannot be weighed against pure gold.

mkjv@Job:28:20 @ From where then does wisdom come, and where [is] the place of understanding?

mkjv@Job:28:21 @ Yea, it is hidden from the eyes of all living, and hidden from the birds of the heavens.

mkjv@Job:28:22 @ The place of ruin and death say, We have heard the fame of it with our ears.

mkjv@Job:28:23 @ God understands the way of it, and He knows its place.

mkjv@Job:28:24 @ For He looks to the end of the earth, [and] sees under all the heavens;

mkjv@Job:28:25 @ making a weight for the winds, and measuring out the waters by measure.

mkjv@Job:28:26 @ When He made a decree for the rain, and a way for the lightning to thunder;

mkjv@Job:28:27 @ then He saw it, and declared it; He prepared it, yea, and searched it out.

mkjv@Job:28:28 @ And to man He said, Behold, the fear of the Lord, that [is] wisdom! And to depart from evil [is] understanding!

mkjv@Job:29:1 @ And Job continued the lifting up of his speech, and said,

mkjv@Job:29:2 @ Oh that I were as [in] months past, as [in] the days when God watched over me;

mkjv@Job:29:3 @ when His lamp shone on my head; I walked [through] darkness by His light;

mkjv@Job:29:4 @ as I was in the days of my harvest, when the secret of God [was] on my tent;

mkjv@Job:29:5 @ When the Almighty [was] yet with me, [and] my children were around me;

mkjv@Job:29:6 @ when I washed my steps with curds, and the rock poured out rivers of oil for me;

mkjv@Job:29:7 @ when I went out to the gate by the city; [when] I prepared my seat in the street!

mkjv@Job:29:8 @ The young men saw me and hid themselves; and the aged arose [and] stood up.

mkjv@Job:29:9 @ The rulers held back from talking, and laid their hand on their mouth.

mkjv@Job:29:10 @ The noble's voice was subdued, and their tongue clung to the roof of their mouth.

mkjv@Job:29:11 @ For the ear heard and blessed me. And the eye saw me and witnessed to me.

mkjv@Job:29:12 @ For I delivered the poor who cried for help, and the fatherless who [had] none to help him.

mkjv@Job:29:13 @ The blessing of the perishing came on me; and I caused the widow's heart to sing.

mkjv@Job:29:14 @ I put on righteousness, and it clothed me; my judgment [was] like a robe and a diadem.

mkjv@Job:29:15 @ I was eyes to the blind and feet to the lame.

mkjv@Job:29:16 @ I [was] a father to the poor; and the cause which I did not know, I searched out.

mkjv@Job:29:17 @ I broke the fangs of the wicked, and plucked the prey out of his teeth.

mkjv@Job:29:18 @ Then I said, I shall die in my nest, and I shall multiply [my] days like the sand.

mkjv@Job:29:19 @ My root [was] open to the waters, and the dew lay all night on my branch.

mkjv@Job:29:20 @ My glory [was] fresh in me, and my bow was renewed in my hand.

mkjv@Job:29:21 @ They listened to me, and waited, and kept silent at my counsel.

mkjv@Job:29:22 @ After my words they did not go on; and my speech dropped on them.

mkjv@Job:29:23 @ And they waited for me like the rain; and they opened their mouth wide [as] for the latter rain.

mkjv@Job:29:24 @ I smiled kindly on them [when] they did not believe; and they did not make the light of my face fall.

mkjv@Job:29:25 @ I chose out their way, and sat as chief; and I lived like a king in the army, as one [who] comforts the mourners.

mkjv@Job:30:1 @ But now those younger laugh at me, whose fathers I would have refused to set with the dogs of my flock.

mkjv@Job:30:2 @ Also, what [profit] for me [was] the strength of their hands, [for] full vigor had perished from them?

mkjv@Job:30:3 @ They are dried up with want and famine; they who gnaw the dry ground, [which was] before waste and ruin,

mkjv@Job:30:4 @ [those] plucking mallows by the bushes, and broom roots [for] their food.

mkjv@Job:30:5 @ They are driven forth from the midst; they cried against them as a thief.

mkjv@Job:30:6 @ [They] dwell in the chasms of the valleys, [in] holes of the earth and [in] rocks.

mkjv@Job:30:7 @ They bray among the bushes; they huddle together under the nettles;

mkjv@Job:30:8 @ sons of fools, yea, sons without a name; they have been whipped out of the land.

mkjv@Job:30:9 @ And now I am their song; yea, I am their byword.

mkjv@Job:30:10 @ They despise me, and they flee far from me; they do not spare spit from my face.

mkjv@Job:30:11 @ Because He has loosed His bowstring and afflicted me, they have also thrown off the bridle before me.

mkjv@Job:30:12 @ On [my] right a brood rises; they push away my feet and raise up against me the ways of their ruin.

mkjv@Job:30:13 @ They have broken down my path, they gain by my trouble; they have no helper.

mkjv@Job:30:14 @ As [through] a wide break they came [on]; they roll under a ruin.

mkjv@Job:30:15 @ Terrors have turned on me; they pursue my soul like the wind; and my good passes away like a cloud.

mkjv@Job:30:16 @ And now my soul is poured out within me; the days of affliction have taken hold on me.

mkjv@Job:30:17 @ My bones are pierced in me in the night; and my gnawings never lie down.

mkjv@Job:30:18 @ By the great force [of my disease] my clothing is exposed; it binds me about like the mouth of my coat.

mkjv@Job:30:19 @ [He has] cast me into the mire, and I have become like dust and ashes.

mkjv@Job:30:20 @ I cried to You, and You did not hear me; I stood up, and You did not consider me.

mkjv@Job:30:21 @ You changed to [be] cruel to me; with Your mighty hand You assault me.

mkjv@Job:30:22 @ You lift me up to the wind; You cause me to ride [on it]; and You melt me in a storm.

mkjv@Job:30:23 @ For I know [that] You will bring me [to] death, and [to] the house appointed for all living.

mkjv@Job:30:24 @ Surely He will not stretch out [His] hand to the ruin-heap, though they cry in their misfortune.

mkjv@Job:30:25 @ Did I not weep for him whose day was hard; and my soul grieved for the poor?

mkjv@Job:30:26 @ When I looked for good, then evil came; and when I waited for light, then darkness came.

mkjv@Job:30:27 @ My bowels boiled, and did not rest; the days of trouble confront me.

mkjv@Job:30:28 @ I go in mourning with no sun; I stood up [and] I cried out in the congregation.

mkjv@Job:30:29 @ I am a brother to jackals, and a companion to daughters of the ostrich.

mkjv@Job:30:30 @ My skin is black on me, and my bones are burned with heat.

mkjv@Job:30:31 @ And my lyre has [turned] to mourning, and my flute to the sound of weeping.

mkjv@Job:31:1 @ I made a covenant with my eyes; how then could I look upon a virgin?

mkjv@Job:31:2 @ For what [is] the portion from God above? And [what is] the inheritance from the Almighty on high?

mkjv@Job:31:3 @ [Is] not disaster to the perverse, and calamity to the workers of iniquity?

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

mkjv@Job:31:5 @ If I have walked with vanity, or if my foot has hurried to deceit,

mkjv@Job:31:6 @ let me be weighed in an even balance so that God may know my uprightness.

mkjv@Job:31:7 @ If my step has turned out of the way, or my heart has walked after my eyes, and if any blot has held fast to my hands;

mkjv@Job:31:8 @ [then] let me sow, and let another eat; and let my harvests be rooted out.

mkjv@Job:31:9 @ If my heart has been enticed by a woman, or I have laid wait at my neighbor's door,

mkjv@Job:31:10 @ [then] let my wife grind to another, and let others bow down on her.

mkjv@Job:31:11 @ For that [would be] an evil purpose; yea, it [would be] an iniquity [to be punished by] the judges.

mkjv@Job:31:12 @ For it [is] a fire that devours to the Place of Ruin, and it would root out all my gain.

mkjv@Job:31:13 @ If I despised the cause of my man servant or of my slave-girl, when they argued with me;

mkjv@Job:31:14 @ what then shall I do when God rises up? And when He calls me to account, what shall I answer Him?

mkjv@Job:31:15 @ Did not He who made me in the womb make him? And did not One shape us in the womb?

mkjv@Job:31:16 @ If I have withheld the poor from [their] desire, or have caused the eyes of the widow to fail,

mkjv@Job:31:17 @ or have eaten my bit alone, and the fatherless has not eaten of it,

mkjv@Job:31:18 @ for from my youth he grew up with me, as [with] a father, and from my mother's womb I guided her;

mkjv@Job:31:19 @ if I have seen any perish for lack of clothing, or there was no covering for the needy;

mkjv@Job:31:20 @ if his loins have not blessed me, and he warmed himself with the fleece of my flock;

mkjv@Job:31:21 @ if I have lifted up my hand against the fatherless when I watched over my help in the gate;

mkjv@Job:31:22 @ [then] let my arm fall from the shoulder blade, and let my arm be broken from the elbow.

mkjv@Job:31:23 @ For trouble [from] God [is] a terror to me, and I could not do [anything] because of His highness.

mkjv@Job:31:24 @ If I have made gold my hope, or have called fine gold my trust;

mkjv@Job:31:25 @ if I rejoiced because my wealth [was] great, and because my hand had gotten much;

mkjv@Job:31:26 @ if I looked to the light when it shone, or the moon walking in brightness,

mkjv@Job:31:27 @ and my heart has been secretly enticed, or my mouth has kissed my hand;

mkjv@Job:31:28 @ this also [would be] an iniquity [for] the judges; for I would have denied the God above.

mkjv@Job:31:29 @ If I rejoiced at the ruin of my hater, and I was excited when evil found him;

mkjv@Job:31:30 @ also I have not allowed my mouth to sin by asking his life with a curse;

mkjv@Job:31:31 @ if the men of my camp did not say, Who can find one who has not been satisfied with his meat?

mkjv@Job:31:32 @ The stranger did not sleep in the street, [for] I opened my doors to the traveler.

mkjv@Job:31:33 @ If I covered my transgressions like Adam, by hiding my iniquity in my bosom,

mkjv@Job:31:34 @ then let me tremble before a great multitude, and be terrified by the scorn of families; [and] I will be silent [and] not go out the door.

mkjv@Job:31:35 @ Oh that I had one to hear me! Behold my mark. Let the Almighty answer me, and my Accuser write an indictment.

mkjv@Job:31:36 @ Surely I would carry it on my shoulder, [and] bind it [like] crowns to me.

mkjv@Job:31:37 @ I would declare to Him the number of my steps; like a prince I would go near Him.

mkjv@Job:31:38 @ If my lands cry against me, or its furrows weep together;

mkjv@Job:31:39 @ if I have eaten its strength without silver, or have caused its owner to expire,

mkjv@Job:31:40 @ let thorns come forth instead of wheat, and weeds instead of barley. The words of Job are ended.

mkjv@Job:32:1 @ And these three men ceased from answering Job, because he [was] righteous in his own eyes.

mkjv@Job:32:2 @ And burned the anger of Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite, of the family of Ram. His wrath burned against Job, because he had justified himself rather than God.

mkjv@Job:32:3 @ Also his wrath was kindled against his three friends, because they had found no answer and had condemned Job.

mkjv@Job:32:4 @ And Elihu had waited beside Job with words, because they [were] older than he in days.

mkjv@Job:32:5 @ When Elihu saw that there [was] no answer in the mouth of these three men, then his wrath was kindled.

mkjv@Job:32:6 @ And Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite answered and said, I [am] young, and you [are] very old; therefore I was afraid, and dared not show you my opinion.

mkjv@Job:32:7 @ I said, Days should speak, and the multitude of years should teach wisdom.

mkjv@Job:32:8 @ But a spirit [is] in man giving them perception, even the breath of the Almighty.

mkjv@Job:32:9 @ [It is] not the great that are wise, nor the aged who understand judgment.

mkjv@Job:32:10 @ Therefore I say, Listen to me. I also will declare my opinion.

mkjv@Job:32:11 @ Behold, I waited for your words; I listened to your reasons, while you searched out what to say.

mkjv@Job:32:12 @ Yes, I listened to you, and, behold, not one of you proved Job wrong [nor] answered his words,

mkjv@Job:32:13 @ that you do not say, We have found out wisdom. God has pushed him down, not man.

mkjv@Job:32:14 @ And he has not directed his words against me; and I will not answer him with your words.

mkjv@Job:32:15 @ They are broken; they answer no more; words have left them.

mkjv@Job:32:16 @ Shall I wait because you do not speak, because they stand still, answering no more?

mkjv@Job:32:17 @ I also will answer my part; I also will declare my wisdom.

mkjv@Job:32:18 @ For I am full of words; the spirit within me presses on me.

mkjv@Job:32:19 @ Behold, my breast [is] as wine which has no vent; it bursts like new wineskins.

mkjv@Job:32:20 @ I will speak so that I may be refreshed; I will open my lips and answer.

mkjv@Job:32:21 @ I will not now lift up the face of a man, nor eulogize [any] man,

mkjv@Job:32:22 @ For I do not know how to eulogize; else after a little my Maker would take me away.

mkjv@Job:33:1 @ However, Job, please hear my speeches, and listen to all my words.

mkjv@Job:33:2 @ Behold, now I have opened my mouth, my tongue has spoken in my mouth,

mkjv@Job:33:3 @ my words [shall be] from my upright heart, and my lips will clearly speak knowledge.

mkjv@Job:33:4 @ The Spirit of God made me, and the breath of the Almighty gives me life.

mkjv@Job:33:5 @ If you can, answer me; set yourself in order before me, stand up.

mkjv@Job:33:6 @ Behold, I [am] toward God even as you [are]; I also am formed out of the clay.

mkjv@Job:33:7 @ Behold, my terror shall not make you afraid, and my burden shall not be heavy on you.

mkjv@Job:33:8 @ Surely you have spoken in my ears, and I have heard the sound of [your] words.

mkjv@Job:33:9 @ [You said], I [am] pure, without transgression; I [am] innocent, and no iniquity [is] in me;

mkjv@Job:33:10 @ behold, He finds reasons to be against me, He counts me for His enemy;

mkjv@Job:33:11 @ He puts my feet in the stocks; He marks all my paths.

mkjv@Job:33:12 @ Behold, [in] this you are not right; I will answer you, for God is greater than man.

mkjv@Job:33:13 @ Why do you fight against Him? For He does not give account for [any] of His matters.

mkjv@Job:33:14 @ For God speaks once, yea, twice, [but] not one takes notice.

mkjv@Job:33:15 @ In a dream, a vision of the night, when deep sleep falls on men; while [they] slumber on the bed;

mkjv@Job:33:16 @ then He opens the ear of men and seals their teaching,

mkjv@Job:33:17 @ so that He may turn man [from his] act, that He might hide pride from man.

mkjv@Job:33:18 @ He keeps back his soul from the Pit, and his life from perishing by the sword.

mkjv@Job:33:19 @ He is also chastened with pain on his bed, and enduring strife [in] his bones;

mkjv@Job:33:20 @ so that his life is sick of bread, and his soul desirable food.

mkjv@Job:33:21 @ His flesh wastes away, not seen; and his bones laid bare; they were not seen.

mkjv@Job:33:22 @ Yea, his soul draws near to the Pit, and his life to the dealers of death.

mkjv@Job:33:23 @ If there is a messenger for him, a mediator, one among a thousand, to declare for man his uprightness,

mkjv@Job:33:24 @ then He is gracious to him and says, Deliver him from going down to the Pit; for I have found a ransom.

mkjv@Job:33:25 @ His flesh shall be fresher than in vigor; he shall return to the days of his youth;

mkjv@Job:33:26 @ he shall pray to God, and He will be gracious to Him; and he shall see His face with joy, for He will restore to man his righteousness.

mkjv@Job:33:27 @ He will observe to men, and say, I have sinned and perverted righteousness; and it was not equally repaid to me,

mkjv@Job:33:28 @ He has redeemed my soul from passing over into the Pit, and my life shall see the light.

mkjv@Job:33:29 @ Lo, all these [things] God does two or three times with a man,

mkjv@Job:33:30 @ to bring back his soul from the Pit, to be lighted with the light of the living.

mkjv@Job:33:31 @ Hear this, Job, listen to me; be silent and I will speak.

mkjv@Job:33:32 @ If you have anything to say, answer me; speak, for I desire to justify you.

mkjv@Job:33:33 @ If not, listen to me; be silent, and I will teach you wisdom.

mkjv@Job:34:1 @ And Elihu answered and said,

mkjv@Job:34:2 @ Hear my words, wise men; and give ear to me, you who have knowledge;

mkjv@Job:34:3 @ For the ear tries words, [as] the palate tastes food.

mkjv@Job:34:4 @ Let us choose for ourselves what is right; let us know among ourselves what [is] good.

mkjv@Job:34:5 @ For Job has said, I am righteous; and God has taken away my right;

mkjv@Job:34:6 @ should I lie against my right? My wound cannot be cured; [I am] without rebellion.

mkjv@Job:34:7 @ What man [is] like Job, [who] drinks up scorning like water;

mkjv@Job:34:8 @ who goes in company with the workers of iniquity, and walks with wicked men?

mkjv@Job:34:9 @ For he has said, It profits a man nothing when he is accepted with God.

mkjv@Job:34:10 @ Therefore listen to me, O man of heart; far be it from God to commit iniquity; and from the Almighty, to do wrong.

mkjv@Job:34:11 @ For He repays man's work, and causes him to find according to [his] ways.

mkjv@Job:34:12 @ Yes, surely God will not do wickedly, neither will the Almighty pervert justice.

mkjv@Job:34:13 @ Who has given the earth as a deposit with Him? Or who has set the whole world in order?

mkjv@Job:34:14 @ If He sets His heart on man, [if] He gathers to Himself his spirit and his breath,

mkjv@Job:34:15 @ all flesh shall perish together, and man shall turn again to dust.

mkjv@Job:34:16 @ If now [you have] understanding, hear this; listen to the sound of my words.

mkjv@Job:34:17 @ Shall one who hates right govern? And will you condemn Him who is just and mighty?

mkjv@Job:34:18 @ Who says to a king, O worthless one; and to nobles, O evil one?

mkjv@Job:34:19 @ [How much less to Him who] does not lift up the face of rulers, nor regard the rich before the poor? For all of them [are] the work of His hands.

mkjv@Job:34:20 @ In a moment they die, and a people are shaken at midnight and pass away; and the mighty shall be taken away without a hand.

mkjv@Job:34:21 @ For His eyes [are] on the ways of man, and He sees all his steps.

mkjv@Job:34:22 @ There is no darkness, nor shadow of death to hide there the workers of iniquity.

mkjv@Job:34:23 @ For He does not still impose on man to go before God in judgment.

mkjv@Job:34:24 @ He shall break in pieces mighty men without number, and set others in their place.

mkjv@Job:34:25 @ Therefore He knows their works, and He overturns in the night, so that they are destroyed.

mkjv@Job:34:26 @ He strikes them for evil deeds in the place of the watchers,

mkjv@Job:34:27 @ because thus they turned from following Him, and they did not consider all His ways;

mkjv@Job:34:28 @ [so as] to cause the cry of the poor to come to Him, for He hears the cry of the afflicted.

mkjv@Job:34:29 @ And He gives quietness, who then can condemn? And when He hides [His] face, who can behold Him? And [it may be] against a nation and a man together;

mkjv@Job:34:30 @ from the reigning of ungodly men, from [being] snares for the people.

mkjv@Job:34:31 @ For has any said to God, I have taken away; I will not pervert?

mkjv@Job:34:32 @ Besides what I see, You teach me; if I have done iniquity, I will do it no more.

mkjv@Job:34:33 @ Must He repay because you rejected [it]? For you must choose, and not I; therefore speak what you know.

mkjv@Job:34:34 @ Men of understanding will say to me, and a wise man who hears me [will say],

mkjv@Job:34:35 @ Job has spoken without knowledge, and his words [were] without wisdom.

mkjv@Job:34:36 @ Would that Job may be tried to the end because [his] answers [are] like men of iniquity.

mkjv@Job:34:37 @ For he adds rebellion to his sins; he claps [his] hands among us, and multiplies his words against God.

mkjv@Job:35:1 @ And Elihu answered and said,

mkjv@Job:35:2 @ Do you think this to [be] right, you [that] say, I am more just than God?

mkjv@Job:35:3 @ For you say, What will it benefit you? And, What good shall I have more than [if] I had sinned?

mkjv@Job:35:4 @ I will answer your words, and your friends with you.

mkjv@Job:35:5 @ Look to the heavens, and see; and behold the clouds; they are higher than you.

mkjv@Job:35:6 @ If you sin, what do you do against Him? Or [if] your transgressions are multiplied, what do you do to Him?

mkjv@Job:35:7 @ If you are righteous, what do you give Him? Or what does He receive from your hand?

mkjv@Job:35:8 @ Your wickedness [may hurt] a man like yourself; and your righteousness [may profit] the son of man.

mkjv@Job:35:9 @ From the host of tyrannies they cry out; they cry out because of the arm of the multitude.

mkjv@Job:35:10 @ But none says, Where [is] God my Maker, who gives songs in the night;

mkjv@Job:35:11 @ who teaches us more than the animals of the earth, and makes us wiser than the birds of the heavens?

mkjv@Job:35:12 @ There they cry, but He gives no answer, because of the pride of evildoers.

mkjv@Job:35:13 @ Surely God will not hear vanity, neither will the Almighty look on it.

mkjv@Job:35:14 @ How [much less] when you say you do not see Him! Judgment [is] before Him; you are waiting for Him.

mkjv@Job:35:15 @ And now, because His anger has not visited, and He does not recognize stupidity,

mkjv@Job:35:16 @ even Job opens his mouth in vanity; he multiplies words without knowledge.

mkjv@Job:36:1 @ Elihu went on and said,

mkjv@Job:36:2 @ Wait for me a little, and I will show you that [there are] yet words for God.

mkjv@Job:36:3 @ I will bring my knowledge from afar, and I will credit righteousness to my Maker.

mkjv@Job:36:4 @ For truly my words [are] not false; He who is perfect in knowledge [is] with you.

mkjv@Job:36:5 @ Behold, God [is] mighty, and does not despise; [He is] mighty in strength of heart.

mkjv@Job:36:6 @ He will not keep alive one who is wicked, but gives right to the afflicted.

mkjv@Job:36:7 @ He withdraws not His eyes from the righteous, but [they are] like kings on the throne; yes, [He] causes them to sit forever, and they are very high.

mkjv@Job:36:8 @ And if they [are] bound in chains, and are held in cords of affliction,

mkjv@Job:36:9 @ then He shows them their work, and their sins, that they have behaved themselves proudly.

mkjv@Job:36:10 @ He also opens their ears to teaching, and commands that they return from iniquity.

mkjv@Job:36:11 @ If they obey and serve Him, they shall spend their days in blessedness, and their years in pleasures.

mkjv@Job:36:12 @ But if they do not obey, they shall perish by the sword, and they shall die without knowledge.

mkjv@Job:36:13 @ But the ungodly in heart heap up wrath; they cry not when He binds them.

mkjv@Job:36:14 @ Their soul dies in youth, and their life [ends] among the sodomites.

mkjv@Job:36:15 @ He delivers the poor in his affliction, and opens their ears by oppression.

mkjv@Job:36:16 @ And He also would have lured you from the mouth of distress [to] a wide place not cramped; and the setting of your table [would be] full of fatness.

mkjv@Job:36:17 @ But you have fulfilled the judgment of the wicked; judgment and justice take hold;

mkjv@Job:36:18 @ For [beware] wrath, that He not lure you with [His] scorn; then a great ransom cannot turn you aside.

mkjv@Job:36:19 @ [If] your cry for help is set in order, then [it will] not [be]. in distress, but with all the forces of strength.

mkjv@Job:36:20 @ Desire not the night, when people are cut off in their place.

mkjv@Job:36:21 @ Beware, do not turn to iniquity; for this you have chosen rather than affliction.

mkjv@Job:36:22 @ Behold, God is exalted in His power; who teaches like Him?

mkjv@Job:36:23 @ Who has appointed Him His way; or who can say, You have done wrong?

mkjv@Job:36:24 @ Remember that you magnify His work of which men have sung;

mkjv@Job:36:25 @ every man has seen it; man may see [it] afar off.

mkjv@Job:36:26 @ Behold, God [is] great, and we do not know; the number of His years cannot be searched out.

mkjv@Job:36:27 @ For He draws up the drops of water; they distill rain into mist,

mkjv@Job:36:28 @ which the clouds pour down [and] drop on man plentifully.

mkjv@Job:36:29 @ Also can [any] understand the spreading of the clouds, or the crashing of His canopy?

mkjv@Job:36:30 @ Behold, He spreads His light on it, and He covers the bottom of the sea.

mkjv@Job:36:31 @ For by them He judges the people; He gives plenty of food.

mkjv@Job:36:32 @ He covers His hands with the lightning, and commands it to strike the mark;

mkjv@Job:36:33 @ its thunder declares concerning Him, and the cattle, concerning what is coming.

mkjv@Job:37:1 @ My heart trembles at this also, and it leaps out of its place.

mkjv@Job:37:2 @ Listen carefully to the thunder of His voice, and the rumbling that comes out of His mouth.

mkjv@Job:37:3 @ He loosens it under the whole heavens, and His lightning to the ends of the earth.

mkjv@Job:37:4 @ After it a voice roars; He thunders with the voice of His majesty, and He will not hold them when His voice is heard.

mkjv@Job:37:5 @ God thunders marvelously with His voice; He does great things, and we do not understand.

mkjv@Job:37:6 @ For He says to the snow, Fall [on] the earth; also to the shower of rain, and to the shower of [heavy] rains in its strength.

mkjv@Job:37:7 @ He seals up the hand of every man, so that all men may know His work.

mkjv@Job:37:8 @ Then the beast goes into its lair, and it remains in its dens.

mkjv@Job:37:9 @ Out of the storeroom comes the tempest; and cold from scattering winds.

mkjv@Job:37:10 @ By the breath of God ice is given; and the expanse of waters is frozen tight.

mkjv@Job:37:11 @ Also He loads the clouds with moisture; He scatters the lightning cloud,

mkjv@Job:37:12 @ and it is turned around by His guidance, so that they may do whatever He commands them on the face of the world in the earth.

mkjv@Job:37:13 @ Whether as a whip, or for His land, or for mercy, He finds it.

mkjv@Job:37:14 @ Listen to this, Job; stand still, and consider the wonderful works of God.

mkjv@Job:37:15 @ Do you know when God placed them, and caused the lightning of His cloud to shine?

mkjv@Job:37:16 @ Do you know the balancing of the clouds, the wonderful works of Him who is perfect in knowledge?

mkjv@Job:37:17 @ You whose clothes warm when He quiets the earth from the south wind?

mkjv@Job:37:18 @ Have you beat out the expanse with Him, hard like a cast mirror?

mkjv@Job:37:19 @ Teach us what we shall say to Him; [for] because of darkness we cannot arrange our case.

mkjv@Job:37:20 @ Shall it be told Him that I would speak? If a man speaks, surely he shall be swallowed up.

mkjv@Job:37:21 @ And now men cannot look upon the light; it [is] in the clouds; but the wind passes and clears them.

mkjv@Job:37:22 @ Golden [splendor] comes out of the north; God [is] awesome in His majesty.

mkjv@Job:37:23 @ The Almighty, whom we cannot find out, [is] exalted in power; and to judgment and overflowing righteousness He does no violence.

mkjv@Job:37:24 @ Therefore, men fear Him; He does not respect any [who are] wise in heart.

mkjv@Job:38:1 @ And the LORD answered Job out of the tempest, and said,

mkjv@Job:38:2 @ Who [is] this that darkens counsel by words without knowledge?

mkjv@Job:38:3 @ Now gird up your loins like a man; for I will ask of you, and you teach Me.

mkjv@Job:38:4 @ Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth? Tell if you have understanding!

mkjv@Job:38:5 @ Who has set its measurements, for you know? Or who has stretched the line on it?

mkjv@Job:38:6 @ On what [are] its bases sunk, or who cast its cornerstone,

mkjv@Job:38:7 @ when the morning stars sang together and all the sons of God shouted for joy?

mkjv@Job:38:8 @ Or [who] shut up the sea with doors, when it broke forth as it came from the womb?

mkjv@Job:38:9 @ When I made the clouds its robe, and darkness its navel-band,

mkjv@Job:38:10 @ and set My limit on it, and set bars and doors,

mkjv@Job:38:11 @ and I said, You shall come to here, but no further; and here your proud waves shall stop.

mkjv@Job:38:12 @ Have you commanded the morning from your days, [and] caused the dawn to know its place,

mkjv@Job:38:13 @ that it might take hold of the ends of the earth; that the wicked might be shaken out of it?

mkjv@Job:38:14 @ It is turned like clay [under] a seal; and they stand forth like a garment.

mkjv@Job:38:15 @ And from the wicked their light is withheld, and the high arm shall be broken.

mkjv@Job:38:16 @ Have you gone to the springs of the sea? Or have you walked in search of the depths?

mkjv@Job:38:17 @ Have the gates of death been opened to you? Or have you seen the gates of the shadow of death?

mkjv@Job:38:18 @ Have you understood the breadth of the earth? Tell, if you know it all!

mkjv@Job:38:19 @ Where [is] the way [where] light dwells? And where [is] the place of darkness,

mkjv@Job:38:20 @ that you should take it to its boundary, and that you should know the paths [to] its house?

mkjv@Job:38:21 @ You know, because you were born then. And the number of your days [is] great?

mkjv@Job:38:22 @ Have you entered into the storehouses of the snow? Or have you seen the storehouses of the hail,

mkjv@Job:38:23 @ which I have kept for the time of trouble, against the day of battle and war?

mkjv@Job:38:24 @ How [is] it, way the light distributed, [and how does] the east wind spread itself on the earth?

mkjv@Job:38:25 @ Who has cut a channel for the flood, or a way for the thunderclaps;

mkjv@Job:38:26 @ to cause rain to fall on the earth [where] no man [is], a wilderness and no man in it;

mkjv@Job:38:27 @ to satisfy the desolate and waste ground, and to cause the source of grass to spring forth?

mkjv@Job:38:28 @ Has the rain a father? Or who has brought forth the drops of dew?

mkjv@Job:38:29 @ Out of whose womb came the ice? And the frost of the heavens, who fathered it?

mkjv@Job:38:30 @ The waters are hidden like stone, and the face of the deep is frozen.

mkjv@Job:38:31 @ Can you bind the bands of the Pleiades, or loosen the cords of Orion?

mkjv@Job:38:32 @ Can you bring the constellations in their season? Or can you guide the Bear with its sons?

mkjv@Job:38:33 @ Do you know the ordinances of the heavens? Can you set up their rulership on the earth?

mkjv@Job:38:34 @ Can you lift up your voice to the clouds, so that floods of waters may cover you?

mkjv@Job:38:35 @ Can you send lightnings, that they may go, and say to you, Here we [are]?

mkjv@Job:38:36 @ Who has put wisdom in the inward parts? Or who has given understanding to the mind?

mkjv@Job:38:37 @ Who can number the clouds by wisdom; or who can empty out the jars of the heavens,

mkjv@Job:38:38 @ when the dust is melted [into] hardness, and the clods cling fast together?

mkjv@Job:38:39 @ Will you hunt the prey for the lion, or fill the appetite of the young lions,

mkjv@Job:38:40 @ when they crouch in dens, [and] sit in the cover of their hiding place?

mkjv@Job:38:41 @ Who provides food for the raven, when its young ones cry to God [and] wander about without food?

mkjv@Job:39:1 @ Do you know the time when the wild goats of the rock bring forth? Can you observe the calving of deer?

mkjv@Job:39:2 @ Can you number the months [that] they fulfill? Or do you know the time for their bearing,

mkjv@Job:39:3 @ [when] they bow down [and] bring forth; they send out their pangs.

mkjv@Job:39:4 @ Their young ones are strong, they multiply with grain; they go forth and do not return to them again.

mkjv@Job:39:5 @ Who has sent out the wild ass free? Or who has loosed the bands of the wild ass,

mkjv@Job:39:6 @ to whom I have assigned the wilderness [for] its home, and the salt land [for] its dwellings?

mkjv@Job:39:7 @ He scorns the turmoil of the city; he does not hear the driver's shouts.

mkjv@Job:39:8 @ He seeks out mountains [for] his pasture, and he searches after every green thing.

mkjv@Job:39:9 @ Will the wild ox be willing to serve you, or spend the night by your feed-trough?

mkjv@Job:39:10 @ Can you tie the wild ox [in] the furrow [with] his rope? Or will he harrow the valleys for you?

mkjv@Job:39:11 @ Will you trust him because his strength [is] great? Or will you leave your labor to him?

mkjv@Job:39:12 @ Will you trust him, that he will return your seed and gather [it to] your grain-floor?

mkjv@Job:39:13 @ The wing of the ostrich beats joyously; though not [like] the stork's pinions [for] flight.

mkjv@Job:39:14 @ For she leaves her eggs to the earth, and lets them warm in the dust,

mkjv@Job:39:15 @ and forgets that a foot may crush them, or that the beast of the field may break them.

mkjv@Proverbs:1:15 @ My son, do not walk in the way with them! Keep back your foot from their path,

mkjv@Proverbs:1:16 @ for their feet run to evil and make haste to shed blood.

mkjv@Proverbs:1:17 @ Surely in vain the net is spread in the sight of any bird,

mkjv@Proverbs:1:18 @ And they lie in wait for their [own] blood; they watch secretly for their own lives.

mkjv@Proverbs:1:20 @ Wisdom cries outside; she utters her voice in the streets;

mkjv@Proverbs:1:21 @ she cries in the chief place of gathering, in the openings of the gates; in the city she utters her words, [saying],

mkjv@Proverbs:1:23 @ Turn at my warning; behold, I will pour out my Spirit to you; I will make my words known to you.

mkjv@Proverbs:1:24 @ Because I called, and you refused; I stretched out my hand, and no one paid attention;

mkjv@Proverbs:1:25 @ but you have despised all my advice, and would have none of my warning.

mkjv@Proverbs:1:26 @ I also will laugh at your trouble; I will mock when your fear comes;

mkjv@Proverbs:1:27 @ when your fear comes as a wasting away, and your ruin comes like a tempest when trouble and pain come upon you.

mkjv@Proverbs:1:28 @ Then they shall call upon me, and I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me;

mkjv@Proverbs:1:29 @ instead they hated knowledge and did not choose the fear of the LORD.

mkjv@Proverbs:1:30 @ They would have none of my counsel; they despised all my correction,

mkjv@Proverbs:1:31 @ and they shall eat the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own desires.

mkjv@Proverbs:1:32 @ For the turning away of the simple kills them, and the ease of fools destroys them.

mkjv@Proverbs:1:33 @ But whoever listens to me shall dwell safely, and shall be quiet from fear of evil.

mkjv@Proverbs:2:1 @ My son, if you will receive My words and hide My commandments with you,

mkjv@Proverbs:2:2 @ so that you attend to wisdom, you shall extend your heart to understanding;

mkjv@Proverbs:2:3 @ yea, if you cry after knowledge [and] lift up your voice for understanding;

mkjv@Proverbs:2:4 @ if you seek her as silver, and search [for] her as for hidden treasures,

mkjv@Proverbs:2:5 @ then you shall understand the fear of the LORD and find the knowledge of God.

mkjv@Proverbs:2:6 @ For the LORD gives wisdom; out of His mouth [come] knowledge and understanding.

mkjv@Proverbs:2:7 @ He lays up sound wisdom for the righteous; [He is] a shield to those who walk uprightly.

mkjv@Proverbs:2:8 @ He keeps the paths of judgment, and guards the way of His saints.

mkjv@Proverbs:2:9 @ Then you shall understand righteousness and judgment and honesty, every good path.

mkjv@Proverbs:2:10 @ When wisdom enters into your heart, and knowledge is pleasing to your soul;

mkjv@Proverbs:2:11 @ judgment shall keep you, understanding shall keep you,

mkjv@Proverbs:2:13 @ those who leave the paths of uprightness to walk in the ways of darkness,

mkjv@Proverbs:2:14 @ who rejoice to do evil [and] delight in the perversities of the wicked;

mkjv@Proverbs:2:15 @ whose ways [are] crooked, and [are] devious in their paths.

mkjv@Proverbs:2:16 @ [They] will deliver you from the strange woman, the stranger [who] flatters [with] her words,

mkjv@Proverbs:2:17 @ who forsakes the guide of her youth and forgets the covenant of her God.

mkjv@Proverbs:2:18 @ For her house bows down to death, and her paths to the dead.

mkjv@Proverbs:2:19 @ All who go in to her do not return, nor do they take hold of the paths of life,

mkjv@Proverbs:2:20 @ in order that you may walk in the way of good and keep the paths of the righteous.

mkjv@Proverbs:2:21 @ For the upright shall dwell [in] the land, and the perfect shall remain in it.

mkjv@Proverbs:2:22 @ But the wicked shall be cut off from the earth, and the transgressors shall be rooted out of it.

mkjv@Proverbs:3:1 @ My son, forget not My law; but let your heart keep My commandments;

mkjv@Proverbs:3:3 @ Let not mercy and truth forsake you; tie them around your neck; write them upon the tablet of your heart;

mkjv@Proverbs:3:9 @ Honor the LORD with your substance, and with the firstfruits of all your increase;

mkjv@Proverbs:3:10 @ and your barns shall be filled [with] plenty, and your presses shall burst [with] new wine.

mkjv@Proverbs:3:11 @ My son, do not despise the chastening of the LORD; nor be weary with His correction;

mkjv@Proverbs:3:12 @ for whom the LORD loves He corrects, even as a father [corrects] the son [in whom] he delights.

mkjv@Proverbs:3:13 @ Blessed [is] the man who finds wisdom, and the man who gets understanding.

mkjv@Proverbs:3:15 @ she [is] more precious than rubies; and all the things you can desire are not to be compared with her.

mkjv@Proverbs:3:16 @ Length of days [is] in her right hand; and in her left hand, riches and honor.

mkjv@Proverbs:3:17 @ Her ways [are] ways of pleasantness, and all her paths [are] peace.

mkjv@Proverbs:3:18 @ She [is] a tree of life to those who lay hold upon her; and happy [is] everyone who keeps her.

mkjv@Proverbs:3:19 @ The LORD has founded the earth by wisdom; by understanding He has founded the heavens.

mkjv@Proverbs:3:20 @ By His knowledge the depths are broken up, and the clouds drop down the dew.

mkjv@Proverbs:3:21 @ My son, do not let them depart from your eyes; keep sound wisdom and judgment,

mkjv@Proverbs:3:23 @ Then you shall walk in your way safely, and your foot shall not stumble.

mkjv@Proverbs:3:24 @ When you lie down, you shall not be afraid; yea, you shall lie down, and your sleep shall be sweet.

mkjv@Proverbs:3:25 @ Do not be afraid of sudden fear, nor of the destroying of the wicked, when it comes.

mkjv@Proverbs:3:26 @ For the LORD shall be your hope, and shall keep your foot from being taken.

mkjv@Proverbs:3:27 @ Do not withhold good from those to whom it is due, when it is in the power of your hand to do [it].

mkjv@Proverbs:3:28 @ Do not say to your neighbor, Go and come back again, and tomorrow I will give; when you have it beside you:

mkjv@Proverbs:3:29 @ Do not plan evil against your neighbor, since he dwells trustingly by you.

mkjv@Proverbs:3:30 @ Do not strive with a man without cause, if he has done you no harm.

mkjv@Proverbs:3:31 @ Do not envy the cruel man, and choose none of his ways.

mkjv@Proverbs:3:32 @ For the crooked man [is] hateful to the LORD, but His secret [is] with the righteous.

mkjv@Proverbs:3:33 @ The curse of the LORD [is] in the house of the wicked; but He blesses the home of the just.

mkjv@Proverbs:3:34 @ Surely He scorns the scorners; but He gives grace to the lowly.

mkjv@Proverbs:3:35 @ The wise shall inherit glory; but shame shall be the promotion of fools.

mkjv@Proverbs:4:1 @ Sons, hear the instruction of a father, and listen in order to know understanding.

mkjv@Proverbs:4:2 @ For I give you good teaching; do not forsake my law.

mkjv@Proverbs:4:3 @ For I was my father's son, tender and only [beloved] in the sight of my mother.

mkjv@Proverbs:4:4 @ He also taught me, and said to me, Let your heart hold fast my words, keep my commandments and live.

mkjv@Proverbs:4:5 @ Get wisdom, get understanding; forget not; nor turn away from the words of my mouth.

mkjv@Proverbs:4:8 @ Prize her, and she shall lift you up; she shall bring you to honor when you embrace her.

mkjv@Proverbs:4:9 @ She shall give to your hand an ornament of grace; she shall shield you with a crown of glory.

mkjv@Proverbs:4:10 @ Hear, O my son, and receive my sayings; and the years of your life [shall be] many.

mkjv@Proverbs:4:11 @ I have taught you in the way of wisdom; I have led you in the right paths.

mkjv@Proverbs:4:12 @ When you go, your steps shall not be narrowed, and when you run, you shall not stumble.

mkjv@Proverbs:4:13 @ Take fast hold of instruction; do not let go; keep her; for she [is] your life.

mkjv@Proverbs:4:14 @ Enter not into the path of the wicked, and go not into the way of evil.

mkjv@Proverbs:4:15 @ Avoid it; do not pass by it; turn from it, and pass on!

mkjv@Proverbs:4:16 @ For they do not sleep, except when they have done mischief; and their sleep is taken away unless they cause [some] to fall.

mkjv@Proverbs:4:17 @ For they eat the bread of wickedness and drink the wine of violence.

mkjv@Proverbs:4:18 @ But the path of the just [is] as the shining light, that shines more and more to the perfect day.

mkjv@Proverbs:4:19 @ The way of the wicked [is] as darkness; they know not at what they stumble.

mkjv@Proverbs:4:20 @ My son, listen to my words; bow down your ear to my sayings.

mkjv@Proverbs:4:21 @ Let them not depart from your eyes; keep them in the midst of your heart.

mkjv@Proverbs:4:22 @ For they [are] life to those who find them, and health to all his flesh.

mkjv@Proverbs:4:23 @ Keep your heart with all diligence; for out of it [are] the issues of life.

mkjv@Proverbs:4:24 @ Put away from you a wicked mouth, and devious lips put far from you.

mkjv@Proverbs:4:25 @ Let your eyes look right on, and let your eyelids look straight before you.

mkjv@Proverbs:4:26 @ Ponder the path of your feet, and all your ways [will be] established.

mkjv@Proverbs:4:27 @ Do not turn to the right hand nor to the left; remove your foot from evil.

mkjv@Proverbs:5:1 @ My son, listen to my wisdom; bow your ear to my understanding;

mkjv@Proverbs:5:2 @ in order to keep discretion, [that] your lips may keep knowledge.

mkjv@Proverbs:5:3 @ For the lips of a strange woman drip honey, and her palate [is] smoother than oil;

mkjv@Proverbs:5:4 @ but afterward she [is as] bitter as wormwood, sharp as a two-edged sword.

mkjv@Proverbs:5:5 @ Her feet go down to death; her steps take hold on hell,

mkjv@Proverbs:5:6 @ lest you should meditate on the path of life, her tracks are movable; you cannot know [them].

mkjv@Proverbs:5:7 @ And now hear me, O sons, and do not depart from the words of my mouth.

mkjv@Proverbs:5:8 @ Remove your ways far from her, and do not come near the door of her house,

mkjv@Proverbs:5:9 @ lest you give your honor to others and your years to the cruel;

mkjv@Proverbs:5:10 @ that strangers not be filled [with] your strength, and your labors [be] in the house of a stranger;

mkjv@Proverbs:5:11 @ and you moan when your end [comes], when your flesh and muscle are eaten away,

mkjv@Proverbs:5:12 @ and say, How I have hated instruction, and my heart despised correction;

mkjv@Proverbs:5:13 @ and I have not obeyed the voice of my teachers, nor bowed down my ears to those who taught me!

mkjv@Proverbs:5:14 @ I was almost in all evil in the midst of the congregation and assembly.

mkjv@Proverbs:5:15 @ Drink waters out of your own cistern, and running waters out of your own well.

mkjv@Proverbs:5:16 @ Should your overflowing spring be scattered abroad [as] rivers of waters in the streets.

mkjv@Proverbs:5:17 @ Let them be only your own, and not strangers' with you.

mkjv@Proverbs:5:18 @ Let your fountain be blessed, and rejoice with the wife of your youth.

mkjv@Proverbs:5:19 @ [Like] the loving deer and pleasant doe, let her breasts satisfy you at all times, and be ravished always with her love.

mkjv@Proverbs:5:20 @ And why will you, my son, be ravished with a strange woman, and embrace the bosom of a stranger?

mkjv@Proverbs:5:21 @ For the ways of man [are] before the eyes of the LORD, and He watches all his paths.

mkjv@Proverbs:5:22 @ His own iniquities shall take the wicked himself, and he shall be held with the cords of his sin.

mkjv@Proverbs:5:23 @ He shall die without instruction; and in the greatness of his folly he shall go astray.

mkjv@Proverbs:6:1 @ My son, [if] you are surety for your friend, [if] you struck your palms with a stranger,

mkjv@Proverbs:6:2 @ you are snared with the words of your mouth, you are taken with the words of your mouth.

mkjv@Proverbs:6:3 @ My son, do this now, and deliver yourself when you have come into the hand of your friend; go, humble yourself and make your friend sure.

mkjv@Proverbs:6:4 @ Do not give sleep to your eyes or slumber to your eyelids.

mkjv@Proverbs:6:5 @ Deliver yourself as a gazelle from the [hunter's] hand, and as a bird from the hand of the fowler.

mkjv@Proverbs:6:6 @ Go to the ant, sluggard; consider her ways and be wise;

mkjv@Proverbs:6:7 @ who, having no guide, overseer, or ruler,

mkjv@Proverbs:6:8 @ provides her food in the summer [and] gathers her food in the harvest.

mkjv@Proverbs:6:9 @ How long will you sleep, O sluggard? When will you arise out of your sleep?

mkjv@Proverbs:6:10 @ A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to lie down;

mkjv@Proverbs:6:11 @ so shall your poverty come as one who travels, and your need like an armed man.

mkjv@Proverbs:6:12 @ A worthless person, a wicked man walks with a crooked mouth,

mkjv@Proverbs:6:13 @ winking with his eyes, speaking with his feet, teaching with his fingers;

mkjv@Proverbs:6:14 @ perversity [is] in his heart; he [is] always planning mischief; he causes fighting.

mkjv@Proverbs:6:15 @ Therefore his calamity shall come suddenly; he is quickly broken, and there is no healing.

mkjv@Proverbs:6:16 @ These six the LORD hates; yea, seven [are] hateful to his soul:

mkjv@Proverbs:6:17 @ a proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,

mkjv@Proverbs:6:18 @ a heart that plots wicked plans, feet hurrying to run to evil,

mkjv@Proverbs:6:19 @ a false witness [who] speaks lies, and he who causes fighting among brothers.

mkjv@Proverbs:6:20 @ My son, keep your father's commandments, and do not forsake the law of your mother;

mkjv@Proverbs:6:21 @ bind them upon your heart forever, tie them around your neck.

mkjv@Proverbs:6:22 @ When you go, it shall lead you; when you sleep, it shall keep you; and [when] you awake, it shall talk [with] you.

mkjv@Proverbs:6:23 @ For the commandment [is] a lamp; and the law [is] light; and reproofs of instruction [are] the way of life;

mkjv@Proverbs:6:24 @ to keep you from the evil woman, from the flattery of the tongue of a strange woman.

mkjv@Proverbs:6:25 @ Do not lust after her beauty in your heart; nor let her take you with her eyelids.

mkjv@Proverbs:6:26 @ For by means of a harlot [a man comes] to a piece of bread; and another man's wife will hunt for the precious life.

mkjv@Proverbs:6:27 @ Can a man take fire in his bosom, and his clothes not be burned?

mkjv@Proverbs:6:28 @ Can one go upon hot coals, and his feet not be burned?

mkjv@Proverbs:6:29 @ So is he who goes in to his neighbor's wife; whoever touches her shall not be innocent.

mkjv@Proverbs:6:30 @ They do not despise a thief, if he steals to satisfy his soul when he is hungry;

mkjv@Proverbs:6:31 @ but [if] he is found, he shall restore sevenfold; he shall give all the goods of his house.

mkjv@Proverbs:6:32 @ Whoever commits adultery [with] a woman lacks understanding; he [who] does it destroys his own soul.

mkjv@Proverbs:6:33 @ He shall get a wound and dishonor; and his shame shall not be wiped away.

mkjv@Proverbs:6:34 @ For jealousy [is] the rage of a man; therefore he will not spare in the day of vengeance.

mkjv@Proverbs:6:35 @ He will not take any ransom; nor will he be willing if you multiply the gifts.

mkjv@Proverbs:7:1 @ My son, keep my words and store up my commandments within you.

mkjv@Proverbs:7:2 @ Keep my commandments and live; and keep my law as the pupil of your eye.

mkjv@Proverbs:7:3 @ Bind them upon your fingers; write them upon the tablet of your heart.

mkjv@Proverbs:7:4 @ Say to wisdom, You [are] my sister; and call understanding [your] kinsman,

mkjv@Proverbs:7:5 @ so that they may keep you from the strange woman, from the stranger [who] flatters with her words.

mkjv@Proverbs:7:6 @ For at the window of my house I looked through my lattice,

mkjv@Proverbs:7:7 @ and I saw among the simple ones, among the youths, a young man with no understanding,

mkjv@Proverbs:7:8 @ passing through the street near her corner. And he went the way to her house,

mkjv@Proverbs:7:9 @ in the twilight, in the evening, in the black and dark night.

mkjv@Proverbs:7:10 @ And, behold, there a woman met him, [with] the dress of a harlot and a guarded heart.

mkjv@Proverbs:7:11 @ She [is] loud and stubborn; her feet do not stay in her house;

mkjv@Proverbs:7:12 @ now [she is] outside, now in the streets, and lies in wait at every corner.

mkjv@Proverbs:7:13 @ And she caught him and kissed him, [and] with a hard face she said to him,

mkjv@Proverbs:7:14 @ [I have] peace offerings with me; today I have paid my vows.

mkjv@Proverbs:7:15 @ so I came out to meet you, earnestly to seek your face, and I have found you.

mkjv@Proverbs:7:16 @ I have decked my bed with coverings, with striped cloths of Egyptian linen.

mkjv@Proverbs:7:17 @ I have perfumed my bed with myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon.

mkjv@Proverbs:7:18 @ Come, let us take our fill of love until the morning; let us delight ourselves with caresses.

mkjv@Proverbs:7:19 @ For my husband [is] not at home, he has gone on a long journey;

mkjv@Proverbs:7:20 @ he has taken a bag of silver with him [and] will come home at the day of the full moon.

mkjv@Proverbs:7:21 @ With her much fair speech she caused him to yield, with the flattering of her lips she forced him.

mkjv@Proverbs:7:22 @ He goes after her immediately, like an ox goes to the slaughter, or like a fool to the correction of the stocks;

mkjv@Proverbs:7:23 @ until a dart strikes through his liver; as a bird hastens to the snare and does not know that it [is] for his soul.

mkjv@Proverbs:7:24 @ And now listen to me, sons, and attend to the words of my mouth.

mkjv@Proverbs:7:25 @ Do not let your heart turn aside to her ways, do not go astray in her paths.

mkjv@Proverbs:7:26 @ For she has cast down many wounded; yea, many strong [men] have been slain by her.

mkjv@Proverbs:7:27 @ Her house [is] the way to hell, going down to the rooms of death.

mkjv@Proverbs:8:1 @ Does not wisdom call? And does not understanding put forth her voice?

mkjv@Proverbs:8:2 @ She stands in the top of high places, by the way in the places of the path.

mkjv@Proverbs:8:3 @ She cries in the gates, before the entrance of the city, [at] the doors.

mkjv@Proverbs:8:4 @ To you, O men, I call; and my voice [is] to the sons of man.

mkjv@Proverbs:8:5 @ O simple ones understand wisdom; and, fools, be of an understanding heart.

mkjv@Proverbs:8:6 @ Hear; for I will speak of excellent things; and the opening of my lips [shall be] right things.

mkjv@Proverbs:8:7 @ For my mouth shall speak truth; and wickedness [is] hateful to my lips.

mkjv@Proverbs:8:8 @ All the words of my mouth [are] in righteousness; nothing twisted or perverse [is] in them.

mkjv@Proverbs:8:9 @ They [are] all plain to him who understands, and right to those who find knowledge.

mkjv@Proverbs:8:10 @ Receive my instruction and not silver; and knowledge rather than choice gold.

mkjv@Proverbs:8:11 @ For wisdom [is] better than rubies; and all the things that may be desired are not to be compared to it.

mkjv@Proverbs:8:12 @ I, wisdom, dwell with sense, and find out knowledge of discretions.

mkjv@Proverbs:8:13 @ The fear of the LORD [is] to hate evil; I hate pride, and arrogance, and the evil way, and the wicked mouth.

mkjv@Proverbs:8:14 @ Counsel and sound wisdom [are] Mine; I [am] understanding; I have strength.

mkjv@Proverbs:8:15 @ By Me kings reign and princes decree justice.

mkjv@Proverbs:8:20 @ I lead in the way of righteousness, in the midst of the paths of judgment;

mkjv@Proverbs:8:21 @ I may cause those who love Me to inherit riches; and I will fill their treasuries.

mkjv@Proverbs:8:22 @ The LORD possessed Me from the beginning of His way, before His works of old.

mkjv@Proverbs:8:23 @ I was anointed from everlasting, from the beginning, before the earth [ever was].

mkjv@Proverbs:8:24 @ When there were no depths, I was brought forth; when [there were] no springs heavy [with] water.

mkjv@Proverbs:8:25 @ Before the mountains were settled, before the hills, I was brought forth.

mkjv@Proverbs:8:26 @ before He had made the earth, or the fields or the highest part of the dust of the world.

mkjv@Proverbs:8:27 @ When He prepared the heavens, I [was] there; when He set a circle upon the face of the deep;

mkjv@Proverbs:8:28 @ when He set the clouds above; when He made the strong fountains of the deep;

mkjv@Proverbs:8:29 @ when He gave to the sea its limit that the waters should not pass His command; when He appointed the foundations of the earth;

mkjv@Proverbs:8:30 @ even I was a workman at His side; and I was daily [His] delight, rejoicing always before Him;

mkjv@Proverbs:8:31 @ rejoicing in the world, His earth; and My delight [was] with the sons of men.

mkjv@Proverbs:8:33 @ Hear instruction, and be wise, and do not refuse it.

mkjv@Proverbs:8:34 @ Blessed [is] the man who hears Me, watching daily at My gates, waiting at the posts of My doors.

mkjv@Proverbs:8:35 @ For whoever finds Me finds life, and shall obtain favor from the LORD.

mkjv@Proverbs:8:36 @ But he who sins against Me wrongs his own soul; all who hate Me love death.

mkjv@Proverbs:9:1 @ Wisdom has built her house; she has carved out her seven pillars;

mkjv@Proverbs:9:2 @ she has killed her beasts; she has mixed her wine; she has also set her table.

mkjv@Proverbs:9:3 @ She has sent out her young women; she cries upon the highest places of the city,

mkjv@Proverbs:9:4 @ The simple one, let him turn in here. [To one] lacking heart, she says to him,

mkjv@Proverbs:9:5 @ Come, eat of my bread and drink of the wine I have mixed.

mkjv@Proverbs:9:6 @ Forsake the foolish and live; and go in the way of understanding.

mkjv@Proverbs:9:7 @ One rebuking a scorner gets shame to himself; and one rebuking a wicked one [gets] himself a blemish.

mkjv@Proverbs:9:8 @ Do not reprove a scorner, lest he hate you; give to a wise man, and he will love you.

mkjv@Proverbs:9:9 @ Give to a wise one, and he will be still wiser; teach a just one, and he will increase in learning.

mkjv@Proverbs:9:10 @ The fear of the LORD [is] the beginning of wisdom; and the knowledge of the holy [is] understanding.

mkjv@Proverbs:9:12 @ If you are wise, you shall be wise for yourself; but [if] you scorn, you alone shall bear [it].

mkjv@Proverbs:9:13 @ A foolish woman [is] noisy; she [is] simple and knows nothing.

mkjv@Proverbs:9:14 @ For she sits at the door of her house, in a seat in the high places of the city,

mkjv@Proverbs:9:16 @ The simple one, let him turn in here. And to one lacking heart, she says to him,

mkjv@Proverbs:9:17 @ Stolen waters are sweet, and bread [eaten] in secret is pleasant.

mkjv@Proverbs:10:1 @ The proverbs of Solomon. A wise son makes a glad father; but a foolish son [is] the sorrow of his mother.

mkjv@Proverbs:10:2 @ Treasures of wickedness profit nothing; but righteousness delivers from death.

mkjv@Proverbs:10:3 @ The LORD will not allow the soul of the righteous to go hungry; but He casts away the desire of the wicked.

mkjv@Proverbs:10:4 @ He who deals [with] a lazy hand becomes poor; but the hand of the hard worker makes rich.

mkjv@Proverbs:10:5 @ He who gathers in summer [is] a wise son; but he who sleeps in harvest [is] a son who causes shame.

mkjv@Proverbs:10:6 @ Blessings [are] on the head of the just; but violence covers the mouth of the wicked.

mkjv@Proverbs:10:7 @ The memory of the just [is] blessed; but the name of the wicked shall rot.

mkjv@Proverbs:10:8 @ The wise in heart will receive commandments; but a babbling fool shall fall.

mkjv@Proverbs:10:9 @ He who walks uprightly walks surely; but he who twists his ways shall be known.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:1:12 @ I the Preacher was king over Israel in Jerusalem.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:1:13 @ And I gave my heart to seek and search out by wisdom concerning all which is done under the heavens. [It is] a sad task God has given to the sons of men to be humbled by it.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:1:14 @ I have seen all the works that are done under the sun; and, behold, all [is] vanity and vexation of spirit.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:1:15 @ What [is] crooked cannot be made straight; and [that] lacking cannot be numbered.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:1:16 @ I spoke within my own heart, saying, Lo, I have become great and have gathered more wisdom than all that have been before me in Jerusalem; yea, my heart has seen much of wisdom and knowledge.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:1:17 @ And I gave my heart to know wisdom and to know madness and folly; I know that this also [is] vexation of spirit.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:1:18 @ For in much wisdom [is] much grief; and he who increases knowledge increases sorrow.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:1 @ I said in my heart, Come now, I will test you with mirth; therefore consider and behold goodness; this also [is] vanity.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:2 @ I said of laughter, [It is] madness; and of mirth, What does it do?

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:3 @ I sought in my heart to drag my flesh with wine, yet leading my heart with wisdom; and to lay hold on folly, until I might see where the good for the sons of men might be, what they should do under the heavens all the days of their life.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:4 @ I made my works great; I built houses for myself; I planted vineyards for myself.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:5 @ I made gardens and orchards for myself, And I planted trees in them, of all fruit.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:6 @ I made pools of water for myself, to water the forest shooting forth trees.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:7 @ I bought slaves and slave women, and sons of the house were mine; also livestock, a herd and a great flock were mine, above all that were before me in Jerusalem.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:8 @ I also gathered silver and gold to myself, and the treasure of kings and of the provinces. I got men singers and women singers for myself, and the delights of the sons of men, a wife and very many wives.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:9 @ I was great and increased more than all that were before me in Jerusalem; also my wisdom remained with me.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:10 @ And whatever my eyes desired I did not keep from them; I did not withhold my heart from any joy; for my heart rejoiced in all my labor, and this was my part of all my labor.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:11 @ Then I looked on all the works that my hands had done, and on the labor that I had labored to do; and, behold, all [is] vanity and vexation of spirit; and [there is] no profit under the sun.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:12 @ And I turned to behold wisdom, and madness, and folly; for what [can] the man [do] who comes after the king, when they have already done it?

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:13 @ Then I saw that wisdom excels folly, as far as light excels darkness.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:14 @ The wise man's eyes [are] in his head; but the fool walks in darkness; and I also knew that one event happens to all of them.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:15 @ Then I said in my heart, As it happens to the fool, [so] it happens even to me; and why was I then more wise? And I said in my heart that this also [is] vanity.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:19 @ And who knows [whether] he shall be wise or a fool? Yet he shall have rule over all my labor in which I have labored, and acted wisely under the sun. This [is] also vanity.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:20 @ And I turned to cause my heart to despair over all the labor which I did under the sun.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:21 @ When there is a man whose labor is in wisdom, and in knowledge, and with success; yet to a man who has not labored in it, he shall leave it [for] his share. This also is vanity and a great evil.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:22 @ For what has man from all his labor, and from the troubling of his heart, in which he has labored under the sun?

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:23 @ For all his days [are] sorrows, and his labor sadness; yea, his heart does not take rest in the night. This [is] also vanity.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:24 @ Is it not good that he should eat and drink and make his soul see good in his labor? This I also saw, that it [was] from the hand of God.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:25 @ For who can eat, or who can enjoy, apart from me?

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:26 @ For [God] gives wisdom, and knowledge, and joy to a man who [is] good in His sight. But to the sinner He gives labor, to gather and to heap up, that he may give to [him who is] good before God. This also [is] vanity and vexation of spirit.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:3:4 @ a time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:3:5 @ a time to throw away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:3:6 @ a time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to throw away;

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:3:7 @ a time to tear, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:3:8 @ a time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:3:17 @ I said in my heart, God shall judge the righteous and the wicked; for [there is] a time there for every purpose and for every work.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:3:18 @ I said in my heart concerning the matter of sons of men, that God might reveal them, and that they might see that they themselves [are] beasts.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:3:19 @ For that which happens [to] the sons of men also happens to beasts even one thing [happens] to them. As this [one] dies, so that [one] dies; yea, they all [have] one breath; so that a man has no advantage over a beast; for all [is] vanity.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:3:20 @ All go to one place; all are of the dust, and all return to dust again.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:3:21 @ Who knows the spirit of man [that] goes upward, and the spirit of the beast [that] goes downward?

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:3:22 @ Therefore I have seen that [there is] nothing better than that a man should rejoice in his own works; for that [is] his portion; for who can bring him to see what shall be after him?

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:1 @ So I returned, and considered all the oppressions that are done under the sun. And behold the tears of the oppressed ones, and they had no comforter! And on the side of those who oppressed them there [was] power, but they had no comforter.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:2 @ And I commended the dead who already have died, more than the living who [are] living now.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:3 @ Yea, better than both [is he] who has not yet been, who has not seen the evil work that is done under the sun.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:4 @ Again, I considered all labor, and every right work, that for this a man is envied by his neighbor. This [is] also vanity and vexation of spirit.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:5 @ The fool folds his hands together, and eats his own flesh.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:6 @ Better [is] a hand filled with rest than two fists [with] travail and vexation of spirit.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:7 @ And I returned and saw vanity under the sun.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:8 @ There is one [alone], and [there is] not a second; yea, he has neither son nor brother; yet there is no end to all his labor; and his eyes are not satisfied with riches; and [he says, For whom do I labor and take good from my soul? This [is] also vanity. Yes, it [is] an evil business.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:9 @ Two [are] better than one; because they have a good reward for their labor.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:10 @ For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow; but woe to him [who is] alone when he falls, for he does not have another to help him.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:11 @ Again, if two lie [together], then they have warmth; but how can one be warm [alone]?

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:12 @ And if one overthrows him, two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly broken.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:13 @ A poor and a wise child [is] better than an old and foolish king, who will not be warned any more.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:14 @ For out of prison he comes to reign; although in his kingdom he was born poor.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:15 @ I saw all the living who walk under the sun, with the second child who shall stand up in his place.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:16 @ [There is] no end of all the people, of all who have been before them; they also who come after shall not rejoice in him. Surely this also [is] vanity and vexation of spirit.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:1 @ Guard your steps when you go to the house of God, and be more ready to hear than to give the sacrifice of fools. For they do not know that they are doing evil.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:2 @ Do not be rash [with] your mouth, and do not let your heart be hasty to say a word before God. For God [is] in Heaven, and you [are] on earth; therefore let your words be few.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:3 @ For a dream comes through the multitude of business; and a fool's voice by the multitude of words.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:4 @ When you vow a vow to God, do not wait to pay it. For He has no pleasure in fools. Pay that which you have vowed.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:5 @ [it is] better that you should not vow, than that you should vow and not pay.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:6 @ Do not allow your mouth to cause your flesh to sin; do not say before the angel that it [was] an error. Why should God be angry at your voice and destroy the work of your hands?

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:7 @ For in the multitude of dreams, both words and vanities abound; but fear God.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:8 @ If you see the oppression of the poor, and violent perverting of judgment and justice in a province, do not marvel at the matter. For He [who is] higher than the highest watches; and there are some higher than they.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:9 @ And the advantage of a land, it is for all; [even] a king has a field being tilled.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:10 @ He who loves silver shall not be satisfied with silver, and he who loves abundance not with] gain. This [is] also vanity.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:11 @ When the good thing increases, those who eat it increase; then what profit [is it] to its owners, except to see [it] with their eyes?

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:12 @ The sleep of a laboring man [is] sweet, whether he eats little or much; but the abundance of the rich will not allow him to sleep.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:13 @ There is a sore evil [which] I have seen under the sun, namely, riches kept for their owners to their hurt.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:14 @ But those riches perish by evil use. And he brings forth a son, and nothing [is] in his hand.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:15 @ As he came forth from his mother's womb naked, he shall return to go as he came. And from his labor he may not carry anything that may go in his hand.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:16 @ And this also [is] a sore evil, [that] in all, as he came, so shall he go; and what profit does he have who has labored for the wind?

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:17 @ Also all his days he eats in darkness, and he has much sorrow and wrath [with] his sickness.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:18 @ Behold that which I have seen. [it is] good and right for one to eat and to drink, and to see good in all his labor that he labors under the sun all the days of his life, which God gives him; for it [is] his portion.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:19 @ Also every man to whom God has given riches and wealth, and has given him power to eat of it and to take his portion, and to rejoice in his labor; this [is] the gift of God.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:20 @ For he shall not much remember the days of his life, because God answers [him] in the joy of his heart.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:6:1 @ There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, and it [is] great among men:

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:6:2 @ a man to whom God has given riches, wealth, and honor, so that he lacks nothing for his soul of all that he desires, yet God does not give him power to eat of it, but a stranger eats it. This [is] vanity, and it [is] an evil disease.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:6:3 @ If a man fathers a hundred, and lives many years, so that the days of his years are many, and his soul is not filled with good, and also is for him no burial; I say, a miscarriage [is] better than he.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:6:4 @ For he comes in with vanity and goes out in darkness, and his name shall be covered with darkness.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:6:5 @ Also he has not seen the sun, nor known [anything]. This one has more rest than the other.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:6:6 @ Yea, though he live twice a thousand years, yet he has seen no good. Do not all go to one place?

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:6:7 @ All the labor of man [is] for his mouth, and yet the appetite is not filled.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:6:8 @ For what [has] the wise more than the fool? What [gain has] the poor who knows [how] to walk before the living?

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:6:9 @ Better [is] the sight of the eyes than the wandering of the desire. This [is] also vanity and vexation of spirit.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:6:10 @ That which has been [is] named already, and it is known that he [is] man. And he is not able to contend with Him who is mightier than he.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:6:11 @ For there are many things that increase vanity, [and] what [is] man the better?

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:6:12 @ For who knows what [is] good for man in life, all the days of his vain life which he spends as a shadow? For who can tell a man what shall be after him under the sun?

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:1 @ A good name [is] better than precious ointment, and the day of death than the day of one's birth.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:2 @ [It is] better to go to the house of mourning than to go to the house of feasting; for that [is] the end of all men; and the living will lay [it] to his heart.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:3 @ Sorrow [is] better than laughter; for by the sadness of the face the heart is made better.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:4 @ The heart of the wise [is] in the house of mourning; but the heart of fools [is] in the house of laughter.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:5 @ [It is] better to hear the rebuke of the wise than for a man to hear the song of fools.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:6 @ For as the crackling of thorns under a pot, so [is] the laughter of the fool; this also [is] vanity.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:7 @ Surely oppression makes a wise man mad; and a bribe destroys the heart.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:8 @ Better [is] the end of a thing than the beginning of it; the patient in spirit [is] better than the proud in spirit.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:9 @ Do not be hasty in your spirit to be angry; for anger rests in the bosom of fools.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:10 @ Do not say, Why was [it] that the former days were better than these? For you do not ask wisely in regard to this.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:11 @ Wisdom [is] good with an inheritance; but it is gain to those who see the sun.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:12 @ For wisdom [is] a defense, and money [is] a defense; but the excellency of knowledge [is] that wisdom gives life to those who have it.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:13 @ Consider the work of God; for who can make straight what He has made crooked?

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:14 @ In the day of prosperity be joyful, but in the day of adversity take note [that] God also has set the one over against the other, to the end that man should find nothing after him.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:15 @ All [things] I have seen in the days of my vanity; there is a just one who perishes in his righteousness, and there is a wicked one who prolongs [life] in his wickedness.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:16 @ Do not be righteous overmuch, neither make yourself overwise; why destroy yourself?

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:17 @ Do not be very wicked, and do not be a fool; why should you die before your time?

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:18 @ [It is] good that you should take hold of this; yea, also from this do not withdraw your hand; for he who fears God shall come forth from all of them.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:19 @ Wisdom makes the wise stronger than ten mighty ones who are in the city.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:20 @ For [there is] not a just man on earth who does good and does not sin.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:21 @ Also do not listen to all words that are spoken; lest you hear your servant curse you.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:22 @ For also your own heart knows that you yourself have also cursed others many times.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:23 @ All this I have proved by wisdom; I said, I will be wise; but it [was] far from me.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:24 @ That which is far off and exceedingly deep, who can find it out?

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:25 @ I set my heart to know, and to search, and to seek out wisdom, and the reason [of things], and to know the wickedness of folly, even of foolishness and madness;

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:26 @ and I find more bitter than death the woman whose heart [is] snares and nets, and her hands [like] bands. Whoever pleases God shall escape from her, but the sinner shall be taken by her.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:27 @ Behold, this I have found, says the Preacher, [counting] one by one, to find out the sum,

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:28 @ which my soul still sought, but I find not: one man among a thousand I have found, but a woman among all those I have not found.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:29 @ Lo, this only I have found, that God has made man upright, but they have sought out many inventions.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:1 @ Who [is] as the wise? And who knows the meaning of a thing? A man's wisdom makes his face to shine, and the boldness of his face shall be changed.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:2 @ I [say], keep the king's word, and [that] because of the oath of God.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:3 @ Do not be hasty to leave his presence. Do not take a stand in an evil thing, for he does whatever pleases him.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:4 @ Because the word of a king [is] that which has power; and who may say to him, What are you doing?

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:5 @ Whoever keeps the command shall feel no evil thing; and a wise man's heart knows both time and judgment.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:6 @ Because to every purpose there is time and judgment, therefore the misery of man [is] great on him.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:7 @ For he does not know what shall be; for who can tell him when it shall be?

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:8 @ [There is] no man who has power over the spirit to keep the spirit; nor power in the day of death; and [there is] no discharge in [that] war; nor shall wickedness deliver its owners.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:9 @ All this I have seen, and I gave my heart to every work that is done under the sun. There is] a time in which one man rules over another to his own hurt.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:10 @ And so I saw the wicked buried, and they came and went from the holy place. And they were forgotten in the city, [these] things that they had done. This [is] also vanity.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:11 @ Because sentence [against] an evil work is not executed speedily, therefore the heart of the sons of men is fully set in them to do evil.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:12 @ Though a sinner does evil a hundred [times], and his [days] be made longer, yet surely I know that it shall be well with those who fear God, who fear before Him.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:13 @ But it shall not be well with the wicked, nor shall he make [his] days longer like a shadow; because he does not fear before God.

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

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:15 @ Then I praised gladness, because a man has no better thing under the sun than to eat and to drink and to be glad; for that shall go with him of his labor for the days of his life which God gives him under the sun.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:16 @ When I gave my heart to know wisdom, and to see the business that is done on the earth; for neither day nor night do men see sleep with their eyes.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:17 @ Then I looked at all the work of God, that a man cannot find out the work that is done under the sun; because though a man labors to seek [it] out, yet he shall not find it. Yea, further, though a wise one speaks of knowing, yet he shall not be able to find [it].

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:1 @ For all this I took to heart, even to make all this clear, that the righteous and the wise and their works [are] in the hand of God. No man knows either love or hatred [by] all [that is] before them.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:2 @ All [happens] alike to all; [there is] one event to the righteous and to the wicked; to the good and to the clean, and to the unclean; to him who sacrifices, and to him who does not sacrifice. As [is] the good, so is the sinner. He who swears is as [he] who fears an oath.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:3 @ This [is] an evil among all things that are done under the sun, that [there is] one event to all. Yea, also the heart of the sons of men is full of evil, and madness [is] in their heart while they live, and after that [they go] to the dead.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:4 @ For whoever is chosen, to all those living, there is hope; for a living dog [is] better than a dead lion.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:5 @ For the living know that they shall die; but the dead do not know anything, nor do they have any more a reward; for their memory is forgotten.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:6 @ Also their love, and their hatred, and their envy, is now perished; nor do they any longer have a part forever in all that is done under the sun.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:7 @ Go, eat your bread with joy, and drink your wine with a merry heart; for God now is pleased with your works.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:8 @ Let your garments be always white; and let your head lack no ointment.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:9 @ Look [on] life with the wife whom you love all the days of the life of your vanity, which He has given you under the sun, all the days of your vanity. For that [is] your share in [this life, and in your labor which you labor under the sun.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:10 @ Whatever your hand finds to do, do [it] with all your might; for [there is] no work, nor plan, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the grave where you go.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:11 @ I returned and saw under the sun that the race [is] not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, nor yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favor to men of skill; but time and chance happens to them all.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:12 @ For man also does not know his time; as the fishes that are taken in an evil net, and as the birds that are caught in the snare; so [are] the sons of men snared in an evil time, when it falls suddenly on them.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:13 @ This wisdom I have seen also under the sun, and it [seemed] great to me.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:14 @ [There was] a little city, and few men in it; and a great king came against it and besieged it, and built huge bulwarks against it.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:15 @ And a poor wise man was found in it, and he by his wisdom delivered the city; yet no man remembered that poor man.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:16 @ And I said, Wisdom [is] better than strength; but the poor man's wisdom [is] despised, and his words are not heard.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:17 @ The words of the wise [are] heard in quiet more than the cry of him who rules among fools.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:18 @ Wisdom [is] better than weapons of war; but one sinner destroys much good.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:1 @ As dead flies cause the perfumer's ointment to stink [and] ferment; [so] a little folly [is more] rare than wisdom and] than honor.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:2 @ A man's heart [is] at his right hand; but a fool's heart at his left.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:3 @ Yes also, in the way a fool walks, his heart fails; and he says to all [that] he [is] a fool.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:4 @ If the spirit of the ruler rises up against you, do not leave your place; for yielding quiets great sinners.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:5 @ There is an evil I have seen under the sun, like a sin which comes from a ruler's presence;

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:6 @ foolishness is set in great dignity, and the rich sit in low place.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:7 @ I have seen servants on horses and princes walking as servants on the earth.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:8 @ He who digs a pit shall fall into it; and whoever breaks a hedge, a snake shall bite him.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:9 @ Whoever removes stones shall be hurt with them. He who splits wood shall be endangered by it.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:10 @ If the iron is blunt, and he does not whet the edge, then he must put more strength to [it]. But wisdom [is] profitable to direct.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:11 @ Surely the snake will bite without enchantment; and a babbler [is] no better.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:12 @ The words of a wise mouth [are] gracious; but the lips of a fool will swallow him.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:13 @ The beginning of the words of his mouth [is] foolishness; and the end of his talk [is] wicked madness.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:14 @ A fool also makes many words; a man knows not what they shall be; and what shall be after him, who can tell him?

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:15 @ The labor of fools wearies him, because he does not know [how] to go to the city.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:16 @ Woe to you, O land, when your king [is] a child and your leaders eat in the morning.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:17 @ Blessed [are] you, O land, when your king [is] the son of nobles, and your leaders eat in [due] time, for strength, and not for drunkenness!

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:18 @ By slothfulness the building decays; and through lowering of the hands the house leaks.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:19 @ Bread [is] made for laughter, and wine makes merry; but silver answers all [things].

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:20 @ Do not curse a king, no, not in your thought; and do not curse the rich in your bedroom; for a bird of the air shall carry the voice, and that which has wings shall tell the matter.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:11:1 @ Cast your bread on the waters; for you shall find it after many days.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:11:2 @ Give a share to seven, and also to eight; for you know not what evil shall be on the earth.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:11:3 @ If the clouds are full of rain, they empty on the earth; and if the tree falls toward the south, or toward the north, in the place where the tree falls, there it shall be.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:11:4 @ He who watches the wind shall not sow; and he who pays attention to the clouds shall not reap.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:11:5 @ As you do not know what [is] the way of the spirit, as how the bones [grow] in the pregnant woman's womb; even so you do not know the works of God who makes all.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:11:6 @ In the morning sow your seed, and in the evening do not withhold your hand; for you do not know what shall be blessed, either this or that, or whether they both [shall be] fruitful in the same way.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:11:7 @ Also the light [is] sweet, and a pleasant thing [it is] for the eyes to behold the sun;

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:11:8 @ but if a man lives many years, [and] rejoices in them all; yet let him remember the days of darkness, for they shall be many. All that comes [is] vanity.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:11:9 @ Rejoice, in your youth, young man; and let your heart cheer you in the days of your youth, and walk in the ways of your heart, and in the sight of your eyes; but know that for all these [things] God will bring you into judgment.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:11:10 @ Therefore remove vexation from your heart, and put away evil from your flesh; for childhood and prime of life [are] vanity.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:1 @ Remember now your Creator in the days of your youth, while the evil days do not come, nor the years draw near, when you shall say, I have no pleasure in them.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:2 @ So long as the sun, or the light, or the moon, or the stars, are darkened, or the clouds return after rain,

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:3 @ in the day when the keepers of the house shall tremble, and the strong men, are bowed, and the grinders cease because there are few, and those who look out of the windows are darkened,

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:4 @ and the doors shall be shut in the streets, when the sound of the grinding is low, and you shall rise up at the voice of a bird, and all the daughters of music are silenced;

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:5 @ also they are afraid of the high place, and terrors along the way, and the almond tree shall blossom, and the grasshopper shall be a burden, and desire shall fail; because man goes to his long home, and the mourners go about the streets;

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:6 @ or ever the silver cord is not loosed, or the golden bowl is broken, or the pitcher is broken at the fountain, or the wheel broken at the cistern;

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:7 @ then the dust shall return to the earth as it was, and the spirit shall return to God who gave it.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:8 @ Vanity of vanities, says the preacher; all [is] vanity.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:9 @ And more than that, the preacher [was] wise; he still taught the people knowledge. Yes, he listened, and looked, and set in order many proverbs.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:10 @ The preacher sought to find out pleasing words; and words of truth written by the upright.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:11 @ The words of the wise [are] like goads; yes, their collected words are like nails driven home; they [are] given from one Shepherd.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:12 @ And further, by these, my son, be warned: The making of many books has no end, and much study [is] a weariness of the flesh.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:13 @ Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter. Fear God, and keep His commandments. For this [is] the whole [duty] of man.

mkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:14 @ For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether [it is] good, or whether evil.

mkjv@Songs:1:1 @ The song of songs, which [is] Solomon's.

mkjv@Songs:1:2 @ Let Him kiss me with the kisses of His mouth; for Your love [is] better than wine.

mkjv@Songs:1:4 @ Draw me, we will run after You, The King has brought me into his chambers; we will be glad and rejoice in You, we will remember Your love more than wine; the upright love You.

mkjv@Songs:1:5 @ I [am] black, but comely, O daughters of Jerusalem, like the tents of Kedar, like the curtains of Solomon.

mkjv@Songs:1:6 @ Do not look on me, that I [am] black, that the sun has looked on me. My mother's sons were angry with me; they made me the keeper of the vineyards; [but] my vineyard I have not kept.

mkjv@Songs:1:7 @ Tell me, [You] whom my soul loves, where do You feed, where do You lie down at noon? For why should I be as one who is veiled beside the flocks of Your companions?

mkjv@Songs:1:8 @ If you know not, most beautiful among women, go in the footsteps of the flock; and feed your kids beside the shepherds' tents.

mkjv@Songs:1:9 @ O My love, I have compared you to My mares among Pharaoh's chariots.

mkjv@Songs:1:12 @ While the King is in His circle, my spikenard gives its smell.

mkjv@Songs:1:13 @ A bundle of myrrh [is] my Beloved to me. [He] shall lie all night between my breasts.

mkjv@Songs:1:14 @ My Beloved [is] to me [like] a cluster of henna in the vineyards of Engedi.

mkjv@Songs:1:15 @ Behold, you [are] beautiful, my love; behold, you [are] beautiful; you [have] doves' eyes.

mkjv@Songs:1:16 @ Behold, you [are] beautiful, my Beloved, yea, pleasant. Also our bed [is] green.

mkjv@Songs:2:2 @ As the lily among thorns, so [is] My love among the daughters.

mkjv@Songs:2:3 @ As the apple among the trees of the wood, so [is] my Beloved among the sons. I sat down under His shadow with great delight, and His fruit [was] sweet to my taste.

mkjv@Songs:2:4 @ He brought me to the banqueting house, and His banner over me [was] love.

mkjv@Songs:2:5 @ Feed me with raisin cakes, comfort me with apples, for I [am] sick [with] love.

mkjv@Songs:2:8 @ The voice of my Beloved! Behold, He comes leaping on the mountains, skipping on the hills.

mkjv@Songs:2:9 @ My Beloved is like a roe or a young hart. Behold, [He] stands behind our wall, He looks forth at the windows, peering from the lattice.

mkjv@Songs:2:10 @ My Beloved spoke, and said to me, Rise up, My love, My beautiful one, and come away.

mkjv@Songs:2:13 @ the fig tree puts forth her green figs, and the vines [with] the tender grape give a [good] smell. Arise, My love, My beautiful one, and come away.

mkjv@Songs:2:14 @ O My dove, in the clefts of the rock, in the secret places of the stairs, let Me see your face, let Me hear your voice; for your voice [is] sweet, and your face [is] beautiful.

mkjv@Songs:2:15 @ Take us the foxes, the little foxes that spoil the vines; for our vines [have] tender grapes.

mkjv@Songs:2:16 @ My Beloved [is] mine, and I [am] His; He feeds among the lilies.

mkjv@Songs:2:17 @ Until when does the day blow, and the shadows flee away? Turn, my Beloved, and be like a gazelle, or a young deer, the stag, on the mountains of Bether.

mkjv@Songs:3:1 @ By night on my bed I sought Him whom my soul loved; I sought [Him], but I did not find Him.

mkjv@Songs:3:2 @ I will rise now and go about the city, in the streets and in the broad ways; I will seek [Him] whom my soul loves. I sought Him, but I did not find Him.

mkjv@Songs:3:3 @ The watchmen going about the city found me. [I said], Have you seen Him whom my soul loves?

mkjv@Songs:3:4 @ But a little while after I passed from them, I found [Him] whom my soul loves. I held Him and would not let Him go, until I had brought Him into my mother's house, and into the room of her who conceived me.

mkjv@Songs:3:5 @ I charge you, O daughters of Jerusalem, by the gazelles, and by the does of the field, do not stir up nor awake [my] love until it pleases.

mkjv@Songs:3:6 @ Who [is] this coming up out of the wilderness like pillars of smoke, perfumed with myrrh and frankincense, from all the merchant's powders?

mkjv@Songs:3:7 @ Behold his bed, Solomon's! Sixty mighty men [are] around it, of Israel's mighty men.

mkjv@Songs:3:8 @ They all hold swords, instructed in war; each man has his sword on his thigh because of fear in the night.

mkjv@Songs:3:9 @ King Solomon made himself a litter-bed of Lebanon's trees.

mkjv@Songs:3:10 @ He made its poles [of] silver, its back gold, its seat of purple, its middle was paved [with] love by the daughters of Jerusalem.

mkjv@Songs:3:11 @ Go forth, O daughters of Zion, and behold King Solomon with the crown [with] which his mother crowned him on his wedding day, and in the day of the gladness of his heart.

mkjv@Songs:4:1 @ Behold, you [are] beautiful, My love. Behold, you [are] beautiful; your eyes [are] like doves' from behind your veil; your hair [is] like a flock of goats that appear from Mount Gilead.

mkjv@Songs:4:2 @ Your teeth [are] like a flock of shorn [sheep], which came up from the washing; they all are bearing twins and not one [is] barren among them.

mkjv@Songs:4:3 @ Your lips [are] like a cord of scarlet, and your speech [is] becoming; your temples [are] like a piece of pomegranate behind your veil.

mkjv@Songs:4:4 @ Your neck [is] like the tower of David built for an armory, on which there hang a thousand bucklers, all shields of mighty men.

mkjv@Songs:4:5 @ Your two breasts [are] like two fawns, twins of a gazelle, feeding among the lilies.

mkjv@Songs:4:6 @ Until when the day blows, and the shadows flee away, I will go to the mountain of myrrh and to the hill of frankincense.

mkjv@Songs:4:7 @ You [are] all fair, My love; no blemish [is] in you.

mkjv@Songs:4:8 @ Come with Me from Lebanon, [My] spouse; with Me from Lebanon. Look from the top of Amana, from the top of Shenir and Hermon, from the lions' dens, from the mountains of the leopards.

mkjv@Songs:4:9 @ You have ravished My heart, My sister, [My] spouse; you have ravished My heart with one of your eyes, with one chain of your neck.

mkjv@Songs:4:10 @ How fair is your love, My sister, [My] spouse! How [much] better [is] your love than wine, and the smell of your ointments than all spices!

mkjv@Songs:4:11 @ Your lips, [My] spouse, drop like the honeycomb; honey and milk [are] under your tongue; and the smell of your garments [is] like the smell of Lebanon.

mkjv@Songs:4:12 @ A locked garden [is] My sister, [My] spouse; a rock heap locked up, a fountain sealed.

mkjv@Songs:4:13 @ Your plants [are] an orchard of pomegranates, with pleasant fruits; with henna [and] spikenard,

mkjv@Songs:4:14 @ spikenard and saffron; calamus and cinnamon, with all trees of frankincense; myrrh and aloes, with all the chief spices;

mkjv@Songs:4:15 @ a fountain of gardens, a well of living waters, and streams from Lebanon.

mkjv@Songs:4:16 @ Awake, O north [wind]; and come, south [wind]; blow on my garden, so [that] the spices of it may flow out. Let my Beloved come into His garden and eat His pleasant fruits.

mkjv@Songs:5:1 @ I have come into My garden, My sister, [My] spouse; I have gathered My myrrh with My spice; I have eaten My honeycomb with My honey; I have drunk My wine with My milk. Eat, O friends; drink, yea, drink abundantly, O Beloved.

mkjv@Songs:5:2 @ I sleep, but my heart is awake. [It is] the sound of my Beloved that knocks, [saying], Open to Me, My sister, My love, My dove, My undefiled; for My head is filled with dew, My locks with the drops of the night.

mkjv@Songs:5:3 @ I have put off My coat; How shall I put it on? I have washed my feet; how shall I defile them?

mkjv@Songs:5:4 @ My Beloved put in His hand by the hole [of the door], and my heart was moved for Him.

mkjv@Songs:5:5 @ I rose up to open to my Beloved; and my hands dripped [with] myrrh, and my fingers flowing [with] myrrh on the handles of the bolt.

mkjv@Songs:5:6 @ I opened to my Beloved, but my Beloved had left. He passed on. My soul went out when He spoke; I sought Him, but I could not find Him. I called Him, but He did not answer me.

mkjv@Songs:5:7 @ The watchmen who went about the city found me [and] struck me; they wounded me. The keepers of the wall lifted my veil from me.

mkjv@Songs:5:8 @ I adjure you, O daughters of Jerusalem, if you find my Beloved, what do you tell Him? That I [am] sick [with] love.

mkjv@Songs:5:9 @ What [is] your Beloved more than [another] beloved, most beautiful among women? What [is] your Beloved more than [another] beloved, that you adjure us so?

mkjv@Songs:5:10 @ My Beloved [is] bright and ruddy, standing out among ten thousand.

mkjv@Songs:5:11 @ His head [is like] refined gold; His locks [are] bushy, black as a raven.

mkjv@Songs:5:12 @ His eyes [are] as doves' [eyes] on the rivers of waters, washed with milk, sitting on a setting.

mkjv@Songs:5:13 @ His cheeks [are] like a bed of spices, a raised bed of aromatic herbs. His lips [are as] lilies dropping flowing myrrh.

mkjv@Songs:5:14 @ His hands [are like] rings of gold filled with jewels; His body an ivory plate overlaid with sapphires.

mkjv@Songs:5:15 @ His legs [are like] pillars of marble set on sockets of fine gold; His face [is like] Lebanon, excellent as the cedars.

mkjv@Songs:5:16 @ His mouth [is] most sweet; yes, He [is] altogether lovely. This [is] my Beloved, and this [is] my Friend, O daughters of Jerusalem.

mkjv@Songs:6:1 @ Where has your Beloved gone, most beautiful among women? Where has your Beloved turned? For we seek Him along with you.

mkjv@Songs:6:2 @ My Beloved has gone down to His garden, to the beds of spices, to feed in the gardens and to gather lilies.

mkjv@Songs:6:3 @ I [am] my Beloved's, and my Beloved [is] mine; He feeds among the lilies.

mkjv@Songs:6:4 @ O my love, you [are] as beautiful as Tirzah, as lovely as Jerusalem, as inspiring as an army with banners.

mkjv@Songs:6:5 @ Turn away your eyes from Me, for they have overcome Me; your hair [is] like a flock of goats that appears from Gilead.

mkjv@Songs:6:6 @ Your teeth [are] like a flock of ewes which go up from the washing; they all [are] bearing twins, and a barren one [is] not among them.

mkjv@Songs:6:7 @ Your temples behind your veil [are] like a piece of pomegranate.

mkjv@Songs:6:8 @ There [are] sixty queens, and eighty concubines, and virgins without number.

mkjv@Songs:6:9 @ But My dove, My undefiled is one [alone]. She [is] the [only] one of her mother. She [is] the choice of her who bore her. The daughters saw [her] and blessed her; the queens and the concubines saw her, and they praised her.

mkjv@Songs:6:10 @ Who [is] she who looks forth like the morning, fair as the moon, clear as the sun, awesome [armies] with banners?

mkjv@Songs:6:11 @ I went down into the garden of nuts to see the greenery of the valley, to see whether the vine flowered [and] the pomegranates budded.

mkjv@Songs:6:12 @ I did not know, [but] my soul set me [on] the chariots of my princely people.

mkjv@Songs:6:13 @ Return, return, O Shulamite! Return, return, that we may look on you. What will you see in the Shulamite? As it were the dance of two camps.

mkjv@Songs:7:1 @ How beautiful [are] your feet in sandals, O prince's daughter! The curves of your thighs [are] like jewels, the work of the hands of a skillful workman.

mkjv@Songs:7:2 @ Your navel [is like] a round goblet, which never lacks mixed wine; your belly [is like] a heap of wheat set about with lilies.

mkjv@Songs:7:3 @ Your two breasts [are] like two fawns, twins of a gazelle.

mkjv@Songs:7:4 @ Your neck [is like] a tower of ivory; your eyes [like] the fish-pools in Heshbon, by the gate of Beth-rabbim; your nose [is like] the tower of Lebanon which looks toward Damascus.

mkjv@Songs:7:5 @ Your head on you [is like] Carmel, and the hair of your head like purple cloth; the King [is] held captive in its tresses.

mkjv@Songs:7:6 @ How beautiful and how pleasant you [are], O love, for delights!

mkjv@Songs:7:7 @ Your stature is like a palm tree, and your breasts [are] like clusters [of grapes].

mkjv@Songs:7:8 @ I said, I will go up in the palm tree, I will take hold of its stalk. And please let your breasts be like clusters of the vine, and the smell of your nose like apples;

mkjv@Songs:7:9 @ and the roof of your mouth like the best wine for my Beloved, that goes [down] smoothly for My Beloved, flowing softly [over] the lips of sleeping ones.

mkjv@Songs:7:10 @ I [am] my Beloved's, and His desire [is] toward me.

mkjv@Songs:7:11 @ Come, my Beloved, let us go out into the field; let us stay in the villages.

mkjv@Songs:7:12 @ Let us rise up early to the vineyards; let us see [if] the vine flowers, whether the tender grape appears, and the pomegranates bud forth; there I will give You my loves.

mkjv@Songs:7:13 @ The love-apples give a scent, and over our doors [are] all pleasant [fruits], new and old, which I have laid up for You, O my Beloved.

mkjv@Songs:8:1 @ Who could give You to me [as] my brother, who sucked my mother's breasts? [When] I find You outside, I would kiss You; yea, they would not despise me.

mkjv@Songs:8:2 @ I would lead You, [and] bring You into my mother's house. You would instruct me; I would cause You to drink spiced wine of the juice of my pomegranate.

mkjv@Songs:8:3 @ His left hand [would be] under my head, and His right embrace me.

mkjv@Songs:8:4 @ I charge you, O daughters of Jerusalem, why should you stir up or awaken [my] Love until it pleases?

mkjv@Songs:8:5 @ Who [is] this coming up from the wilderness, leaning on her Beloved? I awakened you under the apple tree; there your mother travailed with you; there she travailed and bore you.

mkjv@Songs:8:6 @ Set me as a seal on Your heart, as a seal on Your arm; for love [is] strong as death. Jealousy [is] cruel as the grave; its flames [are] flames of fire, a flame of Jehovah.

mkjv@Songs:8:7 @ Many waters cannot quench love, nor will the rivers overflow it. If [a] man would give all the wealth of his house for love, it would be scorned.

mkjv@Songs:8:8 @ We have a little sister, and she has no breasts; what shall we do for our sister in the day when she shall be spoken for?

mkjv@Songs:8:9 @ If she [is] a wall, we will build on her a palace of silver; and if she [is] a door, we will enclose her [with] boards of cedar.

mkjv@Songs:8:10 @ I [was] a wall, and my breasts like towers; then I was in His eyes as one finding peace.

mkjv@Songs:8:11 @ Solomon had a vineyard in Baal-hamon; he let out the vineyard to keepers; everyone for its fruit was to bring a thousand of silver.

mkjv@Songs:8:12 @ My vineyard, which [is] mine, [is] before me; you, O Solomon, must have a thousand, and for the keepers of its fruit, two hundred.

mkjv@Songs:8:13 @ You who dwell in the gardens, the companions listen to your voice; cause me to hear.

mkjv@Songs:8:14 @ Hurry, my Beloved, and be like a gazelle, or a young deer, the stag, on the mountains of spices.

mkjv@Isaiah:1:1 @ The vision of Isaiah the son of Amoz, which he saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, [and] Hezekiah, kings of Judah.
