nsb@Job:1:5 @ The morning after each feast, Job would get up early to offer sacrifices for each of his children in order to purify them. He always did this because he thought that one of them might have sinned by insulting God unintentionally.

nsb@Job:1:10 @ »You have always protected him and his family and everything he owns. You bless everything he does. You have given him enough cattle to fill the whole country.

nsb@Job:1:20 @ Then Job got up and tore his clothes in grief. He shaved his head and threw himself face down on the ground.

nsb@Job:2:3 @ Jehovah asked Satan: »Have you thought about my servant Job? No one in the world is like him! He is a man of integrity! He is decent and he respects God. He stays away from evil. And he still holds on to his principles. You are trying to provoke me into ruining him for no reason.«

nsb@Job:2:4 @ Satan answered Jehovah: »Skin for skin! Certainly, a man will give everything he has for his life.

nsb@Job:2:5 @ »But stretch out your hand, and strike his flesh and bones and he will curse you to your face!«

nsb@Job:2:6 @ Jehovah told Satan: »He is in your power, but you must spare his life!«

nsb@Job:2:9 @ His wife asked him: »Are you still holding on to your principles? Curse God and die!«

nsb@Job:2:11 @ Job's three friends heard about all the terrible things that happened to him. Each of them came from his home: Eliphaz of Teman, Bildad of Shuah, and Zophar of Naama. They agreed they would go together to sympathize with Job and comfort him.

nsb@Job:2:12 @ They saw him from a distance and did not even recognize him. They cried out loud and wept. Each of them tore his clothes in grief. They threw dust on their heads.

nsb@Job:3:1 @ JOB OPENED HIS MOUTH and cursed the day of his birth.

nsb@Job:3:19 @ »The small and the great are there. The slave is freed from his master.

nsb@Job:4:7 @ »Now think about this: Which innocent person ever died an untimely death? Find me a decent person who has been destroyed.

nsb@Job:4:9 @ »God destroys them with his breath and kills them with a blast of his anger.

nsb@Job:4:12 @ Eliphaz of Teman continued: »I was told something secretly and heard something whispered in my ear.

nsb@Job:4:17 @ »Can any mortal be righteous to God? Can any human being be pure to his maker?

nsb@Job:4:18 @ »You see God does not trust his own servants. He accuses his angels of making mistakes.

nsb@Job:5:3 @ »I have seen a stubborn fool take root and I quickly cursed his house.

nsb@Job:5:4 @ »His children are far from help. They are crushed at the court of justice at the city gate. No one is there to rescue them.

nsb@Job:5:5 @ »Hungry people eat what a stubborn fool gathers. They take it even from among the thorns. Thirsty people pant after his wealth.

nsb@Job:5:18 @ »God inflicts wounds and he bandages. He strikes but his hands make you well.

nsb@Job:5:27 @ »We have studied all of this thoroughly! This is the way it is. Listen to it, and learn it for yourself.«

nsb@Job:6:10 @ »Then I would still have this consolation, my joy in unrelenting pain, that I had not denied the words of the Holy One.

nsb@Job:6:14 @ »A despairing man should have the devotion of his friends, even though he forsakes his reverence for the Almighty.

nsb@Job:7:1 @ »Is this not the struggle of all humanity? A person’s life is long and hard like that of a hired hand.

nsb@Job:7:15 @ »I would rather die of strangulation than go on and on like this.

nsb@Job:8:15 @ »He leans on his web, but it gives way! He clings to it, but it does not hold.

nsb@Job:9:5 @ »He removes the mountains, and they do not know when he overturns them in his anger!

nsb@Job:9:13 @ »God will not withdraw his anger. The allies of the proud lie thrown down beneath him.

nsb@Job:9:33 @ »Nor is there any mediator between us who may lay his hand on us both.

nsb@Job:9:34 @ »Let God remove his rod from me. Do not let dread of him terrify me.

nsb@Job:9:35 @ »I would speak and not respect God. But I cannot do this!

nsb@Job:10:13 @ »‘Yet this is what you concealed in your heart, and I know that this was in your mind:

nsb@Job:11:2 @ »Are all these words to go unanswered? Is this talker to be vindicated?

nsb@Job:11:5 @ »How I wish that God would speak, that he would open his lips against you

nsb@Job:11:6 @ and disclose to you the secrets of wisdom, for true wisdom has two sides. Know this: God has even forgotten some of your sin.

nsb@Job:12:9 @ »Which of all these does not know that the hand of Jehovah has done this?

nsb@Job:12:10 @ »In his hand are the life of every creature and the breath of all mankind.

nsb@Job:12:13 @ »To God belong wisdom and power. Counsel and understanding are his.

nsb@Job:12:16 @ »To him belong strength and victory. Both deceived and deceivers are his.

nsb@Job:13:1 @ »My eyes have seen all this and my ears have heard and understood it.

nsb@Job:14:5 @ »Man’s days are determined. You have decreed the number of his months and have set limits he cannot exceed.

nsb@Job:14:6 @ »So look away from him and let him alone, till he has put in his time like a hired man.

nsb@Job:14:10 @ »On the other hand man dies and is laid low. He breathes his last and is no more!

nsb@Job:14:20 @ »You overpower him once and for all, and he is gone! You change his countenance and send him away.

nsb@Job:14:21 @ »His sons are honored and he does not know it. They are brought low and he does not see it.

nsb@Job:15:32 @ »Before his time he will be paid in full, and his branches will not flourish.

nsb@Job:16:9 @ »His anger has torn me and hunted me down. He has gnashed at me with his teeth. My adversary glares at me.

nsb@Job:16:13 @ »His arrows surround me. Without mercy he splits my kidneys open. He pours out my gall on the ground.

nsb@Job:16:21 @ »O that a man might plead with God As a man with his neighbor!

nsb@Job:17:5 @ »Whoever turns in friends to get their property should have his children's eyesight fail.

nsb@Job:17:8 @ »This shocks decent people. The innocent are against the godless people.

nsb@Job:17:9 @ »Yet, the righteous person clings to his way, and the one with clean hands grows stronger.

nsb@Job:18:5 @ »The lamp of the wicked is snuffed out. The flame of his fire shall not shine.

nsb@Job:23:15 @ »Therefore, I would be dismayed at his presence. I stand in awe of him.

nsb@Job:24:1 @ »Why does the Almighty not keep time? Why do those who know him never see his days?

nsb@Job:24:15 @ »The eye of the adulterer also waits for the twilight. He says: ‘No eye will see me.’ Then he disguises his face.

nsb@Job:27:8 @ »What hope doe the godless have when he is cut off, when God takes away his life?

nsb@Job:27:9 @ »Does God listen to his cry when distress comes upon him?

nsb@Job:27:12 @ »You have all seen this yourselves. Why then this meaningless talk?

nsb@Job:27:23 @ »Men will clap their hands in derision and hiss him out of his place.

nsb@Job:28:4 @ »They open up a mineshaft far from civilization, where no one has set foot. In this shaft men dangle and swing back and forth.

nsb@Job:28:13 @ »No man knows where it is. It cannot be found in this world of the living.

nsb@Job:29:3 @ when his lamp shone over my head, and by his light I walked through darkness.

nsb@Job:29:12 @ »This is because I delivered the poor who cried, and the orphan who had no helper.

nsb@Job:29:25 @ »I chose their way, and sat as chief. I lived like a king among his troops, like one who comforts mourners.

nsb@Job:30:24 @ »Does not one in a heap of ruins stretch out his hand, Or in his disaster cry out for help?

nsb@Job:31:2 @ »What is man’s lot from God above, his heritage from the Almighty on high?

nsb@Job:31:23 @ »I was in terror of destruction from God and I could not face his majesty.

nsb@Job:31:28 @ this also would be an iniquity to be punished by the judges, for I would have denied God above.

nsb@Job:31:31 @ »If those of my tent ever said: ‘Who is not satisfied with his food?«

nsb@Job:32:1 @ So these three men ceased to answer Job, because he was righteous in his own eyes.

nsb@Job:32:12 @ »I gave you my attention, but there was in fact no one that disproved Job, no one among you that answered his words.

nsb@Job:32:14 @ »He has not directed his words against me. I will not answer him with your speeches.

nsb@Job:33:10 @ »Yet God has found fault with me. He considers me his enemy!

nsb@Job:33:12 @ »But I tell you, Job, in this you are not right, for God is greater than man.

nsb@Job:33:18 @ »It is to preserve him from the pit and keep his life from perishing by the sword.

nsb@Job:33:19 @ »On the other hand a man may be chastened on a bed of pain with constant distress in his bones.

nsb@Job:33:20 @ »His very being finds food repulsive and he loathes the choicest meal.

nsb@Job:33:21 @ »His flesh wastes away to nothing, and his bones, once hidden, now stick out.

nsb@Job:33:23 @ »Yet if there is an angel on his side as a mediator, one out of a thousand, to tell a man what is right for him,

nsb@Job:33:25 @ »His flesh is renewed like a child’s. It is restored as in the days of his youth.

nsb@Job:33:26 @ »He prays to God and finds favor with him. He sees God’s face and shouts for joy! God restores him to his righteous state.

nsb@Job:34:14 @ »If He should determine to do so, If He should gather to himself his spirit and his breath,

nsb@Job:34:16 @ »But if you understand, hear this; Listen to the sound of my words.

nsb@Job:34:19 @ »The one who is righteous and mighty does not grant special favors to princes or prefer important people to poor people because his hands made them all.

nsb@Job:34:21 @ »God's eyes are on a person's ways. He sees all his steps.

nsb@Job:34:27 @ »This is because they turned away from following him. They did not consider any of his ways.

nsb@Job:34:29 @ »If God decided to do nothing at all, no one could criticize him. If he hid his face, we would be helpless.

nsb@Job:34:37 @ »To his sins he adds rebellion and in front of us all he mocks God.

nsb@Job:35:2 @ »Do you think this to be just? You say: ‘I am in the right before God.’

nsb@Job:35:15 @ »Because his anger does not punish, and he does not greatly heed transgression,

nsb@Job:35:16 @ »Job opens his mouth in empty talk. He multiplies words without knowledge.«

nsb@Job:36:7 @ »He does not withdraw his eyes from the righteous. He enthrones them with kings and exalts them forever.

nsb@Job:36:22 @ »God is exalted in his power. Who is a teacher like him?

nsb@Job:36:23 @ »Who has prescribed his ways for him, or said to him: You have done wrong?

nsb@Job:36:24 @ »Remember to extol his work, which men have praised in song.

nsb@Job:36:26 @ »How great is God! He is beyond our understanding! The number of his years is past finding out.

nsb@Job:36:29 @ »Who can understand how he spreads out the clouds, how he thunders from his pavilion?

nsb@Job:36:30 @ « See how he scatters his lightning, bathing the depths of the sea.

nsb@Job:36:31 @ »This is the way he governs the nations and provides food in abundance.

nsb@Job:36:32 @ »He fills his hands with lightning and commands it to strike its mark.

nsb@Job:36:33 @ »His thunder announces the coming storm. Even the cattle make known its approach.

nsb@Job:37:2 @ »Listen! All of you listen to the voice of God, to the thunder that comes from his mouth.

nsb@Job:37:4 @ »He thunders with the roar of his voice! It is like the majestic sound of thunder, and all the while the lightning flashes.

nsb@Job:37:7 @ »He seals the hand of every man and all men may know His work.

nsb@Job:37:13 @ »He causes it to happen for correction, for his land and for his loving kindness.

nsb@Job:37:14 @ « Listen to this, O Job, Stand and consider the wonders of God.

nsb@Job:38:2 @ »Who is this that conceals counsel using words without knowledge?

nsb@Job:38:11 @ when I said: ‘This far you may come and no farther’; here is where your proud waves halt?

nsb@Job:38:18 @ »Have you comprehended the vast expanses of the earth? Tell me, if you know all this.

nsb@Job:38:38 @ This when the dust becomes hard and the clods of earth stick together?

nsb@Job:39:6 @ »Whose home I have made the wilderness, and the barren land his dwelling?

nsb@Job:39:8 @ »The range of the mountains is his pasture, and he searches after every green thing.

nsb@Job:39:11 @ »Will you rely on him for his great strength? Will you leave your heavy work to him?

nsb@Job:39:17 @ »This is because God has made her forget wisdom. He has not given her a share of understanding.

nsb@Job:39:18 @ »When she lifts herself on high, she laughs at the horse and his rider.

nsb@Job:39:19 @ »Do you give the horse his might? Do you clothe his neck with a mane?

nsb@Job:39:20 @ »Do you make him leap like the locust? His majestic snorting is terrible.

nsb@Job:40:9 @ »Do you have an arm like God’s? Can your voice thunder like his?

nsb@Job:40:16 @ »What strength he has in his loins, what power in the muscles of his belly!

nsb@Job:40:17 @ »His tail sways like a cedar; the sinews of his thighs are close-knit.

nsb@Job:40:18 @ »His bones are tubes of bronze, his limbs like rods of iron.

nsb@Job:40:19 @ »He ranks first among the works of God, yet his Maker can approach him with his sword.

nsb@Job:41:2 @ »Can you catch Leviathan with a fishhook or tie his tongue down with a rope?

nsb@Job:41:3 @ »Can you put a rope through his snout or put a hook through his jaws?

nsb@Job:41:8 @ »Can you fill his hide with fishing spears or pierce his head with a harpoon?

nsb@Job:41:12 @ »I will not conceal his limbs, his mighty power, or his graceful proportions.

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

nsb@Job:41:14 @ »Who can open the doors of his face, with his terrible teeth all around?
