nkjv@Job:1:1 @ There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was blameless and upright, and one who feared God and shunned evil.

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

nkjv@Job:1:3 @ Also, his possessions were seven thousand sheep, three thousand camels, five hundred yoke of oxen, five hundred female donkeys, and a very large household, so that this man was the greatest of all the people of the East.

nkjv@Job:1:4 @ And his sons would go and feast in their houses, each on his appointed day, and would send and invite their three sisters to eat and drink with them.

nkjv@Job:1:5 @ So it was, when the days of feasting had run their course, that Job would send and sanctify them, and he would rise early in the morning and offer 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." Thus Job did regularly.

nkjv@Job:1:6 @ Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan also came among them.

nkjv@Job:1:7 @ And the LORD said to Satan, "From where do you come?" So Satan answered the LORD and said, "From going to and fro on the earth, and from walking back and forth on it."

nkjv@Job:1:8 @ Then the LORD said to Satan, "Have you considered My servant Job, that there is none like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man, one who fears God and shuns evil?"

nkjv@Job:1:9 @ So Satan answered the LORD and said, "Does Job fear God for nothing?

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

nkjv@Job:1:11 @ But now, stretch out Your hand and touch all that he has, and he will surely curse You to Your face!"

nkjv@Job:1:12 @ And the LORD said to Satan, "Behold, all that he has is in your power; only do not lay a hand on his person." So Satan went out from the presence of the LORD.

nkjv@Job:1:13 @ Now there was a day when his sons and daughters were eating and drinking wine in their oldest brother's house;

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

nkjv@Job:1:15 @ when the Sabeans raided them and took them away--indeed they have killed the servants with the edge of the sword; and I alone have escaped to tell you!"

nkjv@Job:1:16 @ While he was still speaking, another also came and said, "The fire of God fell from heaven and burned up the sheep and the servants, and consumed them; and I alone have escaped to tell you!"

nkjv@Job:1:17 @ While he was still speaking, another also came and said, "The Chaldeans formed three bands, raided the camels and took them away, yes, and killed the servants with the edge of the sword; and I alone have escaped to tell you!"

nkjv@Job:1:18 @ While he was still speaking, another also came and said, "Your sons and daughters were eating and drinking wine in their oldest brother's house,

nkjv@Job:1:19 @ and suddenly a great wind came from across the wilderness and struck the four corners of the house, and it fell on the young people, and they are dead; and I alone have escaped to tell you!"

nkjv@Job:1:20 @ Then Job arose, tore his robe, and shaved his head; and he fell to the ground and worshiped.

nkjv@Job:1:21 @ And he said: "Naked I came from 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."

nkjv@Job:2:1 @ Again there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them to present himself before the LORD.

nkjv@Job:2:2 @ And the LORD said to Satan, "From where do you come?" Satan answered the LORD and said, "From going to and fro on the earth, and from walking back and forth on it."

nkjv@Job:2:3 @ Then the LORD said to Satan, "Have you considered My servant Job, that there is none like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man, one who fears God and shuns evil? And still he holds fast to his integrity, although you incited Me against him, to destroy him without cause."

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

nkjv@Job:2:5 @ But stretch out Your hand now, and touch his bone and his flesh, and he will surely curse You to Your face!"

nkjv@Job:2:6 @ And the LORD said to Satan, "Behold, he is in your hand, but spare his life."

nkjv@Job:2:7 @ So Satan went out from the presence of the LORD, and struck Job with painful boils from the sole of his foot to the crown of his head.

nkjv@Job:2:8 @ And he took for himself a potsherd with which to scrape himself while he sat in the midst of the ashes.

nkjv@Job:2:9 @ Then his wife said to him, "Do you still hold fast to your integrity? Curse God and die!"

nkjv@Job:2:10 @ But he said to her, "You speak as one of the foolish women speaks. Shall we indeed accept good from God, and shall we not accept adversity?" In all this Job did not sin with his lips.

nkjv@Job:2:11 @ Now when Job's three friends heard of all this adversity that had come upon him, each one came from his own place--Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite. For they had made an appointment together to come and mourn with him, and to comfort him.

nkjv@Job:2:12 @ And when they raised their eyes from afar, and did not recognize him, they lifted their voices and wept; and each one tore his robe and sprinkled dust on his head toward heaven.

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

nkjv@Job:3:1 @ After this Job opened his mouth and cursed the day of his birth.

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

nkjv@Job:3:3 @ "May the day perish on which I was born, And the night in which it was said, "A male child is conceived.'

nkjv@Job:3:5 @ May darkness and the shadow of death claim it; May a cloud settle on it; May the blackness of the day terrify it.

nkjv@Job:3:9 @ May the stars of its morning be dark; May it look for light, but have none, And not see the dawning of the day;

nkjv@Job:3:13 @ For now I would have lain still and been quiet, I would have been asleep; Then I would have been at rest

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

nkjv@Job:3:17 @ There the wicked cease from troubling, And there the weary are at rest.

nkjv@Job:3:19 @ The small and great are there, And the servant is free from his master.

nkjv@Job:3:20 @ "Why is light given to him who is in misery, And life to the bitter of soul,

nkjv@Job:3:21 @ Who long for death, but it does not come, And search for it more than hidden treasures;

nkjv@Job:3:22 @ Who rejoice exceedingly, And are glad when they can find the grave?

nkjv@Job:3:23 @ Why is light given to a man whose way is hidden, And whom God has hedged in?

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

nkjv@Job:3:25 @ For the thing I greatly feared has come upon me, And what I dreaded has happened to me.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

nkjv@Job:5:1 @ "Call out now; Is there anyone who will answer you? And to which of the holy ones will you turn?

nkjv@Job:5:2 @ For wrath kills a foolish man, And envy slays a simple one.

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

nkjv@Job:5:5 @ Because the hungry eat up his harvest, Taking it even from the thorns, And a snare snatches their substance.

nkjv@Job:5:8 @ "But as for me, I would seek God, And to God I would commit my cause--

nkjv@Job:5:9 @ Who does great things, and unsearchable, Marvelous things without number.

nkjv@Job:5:10 @ He gives rain on the earth, And sends waters on the fields.

nkjv@Job:5:11 @ He sets on high those who are lowly, And those who mourn are lifted to safety.

nkjv@Job:5:12 @ He frustrates the devices of the crafty, So that their hands cannot carry out their plans.

nkjv@Job:5:13 @ He catches the wise in their own craftiness, And the counsel of the cunning comes quickly upon them.

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

nkjv@Job:5:15 @ But He saves the needy from the sword, From the mouth of the mighty, And from their hand.

nkjv@Job:5:16 @ So the poor have hope, And injustice shuts her mouth.

nkjv@Job:5:18 @ For He bruises, but He binds up; He wounds, but His hands make whole.

nkjv@Job:5:20 @ In famine He shall redeem you from death, And in war from the power of the sword.

nkjv@Job:5:21 @ You shall be hidden from the scourge of the tongue, And you shall not be afraid of destruction when it comes.

nkjv@Job:5:22 @ You shall laugh at destruction and famine, And you shall not be afraid of the beasts of the earth.

nkjv@Job:5:23 @ For you shall have a covenant with the stones of the field, And the beasts of the field shall be at peace with you.

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

nkjv@Job:5:25 @ You shall also know that your descendants shall be many, And your offspring like the grass of the earth.

nkjv@Job:5:27 @ Behold, this we have searched out; It is true. Hear it, and know for yourself."

nkjv@Job:6:1 @ Then Job answered and said:

nkjv@Job:6:2 @ "Oh, that my grief were fully weighed, And my calamity laid with it on the scales!

nkjv@Job:6:3 @ For then it would be heavier than the sand of the sea-- Therefore my words have been rash.

nkjv@Job:6:9 @ That it would please God to crush me, That He would loose His hand and cut me off!

nkjv@Job:6:11 @ "What strength do I have, that I should hope? And what is my end, that I should prolong my life?

nkjv@Job:6:13 @ Is my help not within me? And is success driven from me?

nkjv@Job:6:16 @ Which are dark because of the ice, And into which the snow vanishes.

nkjv@Job:6:18 @ The paths of their way turn aside, They go nowhere and perish.

nkjv@Job:6:20 @ They are disappointed because they were confident; They come there and are confused.

nkjv@Job:6:21 @ For now you are nothing, You see terror and are afraid.

nkjv@Job:6:23 @ Or, "Deliver me from the enemy's hand'? Or, "Redeem me from the hand of oppressors'?

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

nkjv@Job:6:26 @ Do you intend to rebuke my words, And the speeches of a desperate one, which are as wind?

nkjv@Job:6:27 @ Yes, you overwhelm the fatherless, And you undermine your friend.

nkjv@Job:6:29 @ Yield now, let there be no injustice! Yes, concede, my righteousness still stands!

nkjv@Job:7:2 @ Like a servant who earnestly desires the shade, And like a hired man who eagerly looks for his wages,

nkjv@Job:7:3 @ So I have been allotted months of futility, And wearisome nights have been appointed to me.

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

nkjv@Job:7:5 @ My flesh is caked with worms and dust, My skin is cracked and breaks out afresh.

nkjv@Job:7:6 @ "My days are swifter than a weaver's shuttle, And are spent without hope.

nkjv@Job:7:9 @ As the cloud disappears and vanishes away, So he who goes down to the grave does not come up.

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

nkjv@Job:7:15 @ So that my soul chooses strangling And death rather than my body.

nkjv@Job:7:18 @ That You should visit him every morning, And test him every moment?

nkjv@Job:7:19 @ How long? Will You not look away from me, And let me alone till I swallow my saliva?

nkjv@Job:7:21 @ Why then do You not pardon my transgression, And take away my iniquity? For now I will lie down in the dust, And You will seek me diligently, But I will no longer be."

nkjv@Job:8:1 @ Then Bildad the Shuhite answered and said:

nkjv@Job:8:2 @ "How long will you speak these things, And the words of your mouth be like a strong wind?

nkjv@Job:8:5 @ If you would earnestly seek God And make your supplication to the Almighty,

nkjv@Job:8:6 @ If you were pure and upright, Surely now He would awake for you, And prosper your rightful dwelling place.

nkjv@Job:8:8 @ "For inquire, please, of the former age, And consider the things discovered by their fathers;

nkjv@Job:8:9 @ For we were born yesterday, and know nothing, Because our days on earth are a shadow.

nkjv@Job:8:10 @ Will they not teach you and tell you, And utter words from their heart?

nkjv@Job:8:12 @ While it is yet green and not cut down, It withers before any other plant.

nkjv@Job:8:13 @ So are the paths of all who forget God; And the hope of the hypocrite shall perish,

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

nkjv@Job:8:15 @ He leans on his house, but it does not stand. He holds it fast, but it does not endure.

nkjv@Job:8:16 @ He grows green in the sun, And his branches spread out in his garden.

nkjv@Job:8:17 @ His roots wrap around the rock heap, And look for a place in the stones.

nkjv@Job:8:19 @ "Behold, this is the joy of His way, And out of the earth others will grow.

nkjv@Job:8:21 @ He will yet fill your mouth with laughing, And your lips with rejoicing.

nkjv@Job:8:22 @ Those who hate you will be clothed with shame, And the dwelling place of the wicked will come to nothing."

nkjv@Job:9:1 @ Then Job answered and said:

nkjv@Job:9:3 @ If one wished to contend with Him, He could not answer Him one time out of a thousand.

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

nkjv@Job:9:5 @ He removes the mountains, and they do not know When He overturns them in His anger;

nkjv@Job:9:6 @ He shakes the earth out of its place, And its pillars tremble;

nkjv@Job:9:7 @ He commands the sun, and it does not rise; He seals off the stars;

nkjv@Job:9:8 @ He alone spreads out the heavens, And treads on the waves of the sea;

nkjv@Job:9:9 @ He made the Bear, Orion, and the Pleiades, And the chambers of the south;

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

nkjv@Job:9:16 @ If I called and He answered me, I would not believe that He was listening to my voice.

nkjv@Job:9:17 @ For He crushes me with a tempest, And multiplies my wounds without cause.

nkjv@Job:9:19 @ If it is a matter of strength, indeed He is strong; And if of justice, who will appoint my day in court?

nkjv@Job:9:22 @ It is all one thing; Therefore I say, "He destroys the blameless and the wicked.'

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

nkjv@Job:9:27 @ If I say, "I will forget my complaint, I will put off my sad face and wear a smile,'

nkjv@Job:9:30 @ If I wash myself with snow water, And cleanse my hands with soap,

nkjv@Job:9:31 @ Yet You will plunge me into the pit, And my own clothes will abhor me.

nkjv@Job:9:32 @ "For He is not a man, as I am, That I may answer Him, And that we should go to court together.

nkjv@Job:9:33 @ Nor is there any mediator between us, Who may lay his hand on us both.

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

nkjv@Job:9:35 @ Then I would speak and not fear Him, But it is not so with me.

nkjv@Job:10:3 @ Does it seem good to You that You should oppress, That You should despise the work of Your hands, And smile on the counsel of the wicked?

nkjv@Job:10:6 @ That You should seek for my iniquity And search out my sin,

nkjv@Job:10:7 @ Although You know that I am not wicked, And there is no one who can deliver from Your hand?

nkjv@Job:10:8 @ "Your hands have made me and fashioned me, An intricate unity; Yet You would destroy me.

nkjv@Job:10:9 @ Remember, I pray, that You have made me like clay. And will You turn me into dust again?

nkjv@Job:10:10 @ Did You not pour me out like milk, And curdle me like cheese,

nkjv@Job:10:11 @ Clothe me with skin and flesh, And knit me together with bones and sinews?

nkjv@Job:10:12 @ You have granted me life and favor, And Your care has preserved my spirit.

nkjv@Job:10:13 @ "And these things You have hidden in Your heart; I know that this was with You:

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

nkjv@Job:10:16 @ If my head is exalted, You hunt me like a fierce lion, And again You show Yourself awesome against me.

nkjv@Job:10:17 @ You renew Your witnesses against me, And increase Your indignation toward me; Changes and war are ever with me.

nkjv@Job:10:18 @ "Why then have You brought me out of the womb? Oh, that I had perished and no eye had seen me!

nkjv@Job:10:21 @ Before I go to the place from which I shall not return, To the land of darkness and the shadow of death,

nkjv@Job:10:22 @ A land as dark as darkness itself, As the shadow of death, without any order, Where even the light is like darkness."'

nkjv@Job:11:1 @ Then Zophar the Naamathite answered and said:

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

nkjv@Job:11:3 @ Should your empty talk make men hold their peace? And when you mock, should no one rebuke you?

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

nkjv@Job:11:5 @ But oh, that God would speak, And open His lips against you,

nkjv@Job:11:9 @ Their measure is longer than the earth And broader than the sea.

nkjv@Job:11:10 @ "If He passes by, imprisons, and gathers to judgment, Then who can hinder Him?

nkjv@Job:11:13 @ "If you would prepare your heart, And stretch out your hands toward Him;

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

nkjv@Job:11:15 @ Then surely you could lift up your face without spot; Yes, you could be steadfast, and not fear;

nkjv@Job:11:16 @ Because you would forget your misery, And remember it as waters that have passed away,

nkjv@Job:11:17 @ And your life would be brighter than noonday. Though you were dark, you would be like the morning.

nkjv@Job:11:18 @ And you would be secure, because there is hope; Yes, you would dig around you, and take your rest in safety.

nkjv@Job:11:19 @ You would also lie down, and no one would make you afraid; Yes, many would court your favor.

nkjv@Job:11:20 @ But the eyes of the wicked will fail, And they shall not escape, And their hope--loss of life!"

nkjv@Job:12:1 @ Then Job answered and said:

nkjv@Job:12:2 @ "No doubt you are the people, And wisdom will die with you!

nkjv@Job:12:3 @ But I have understanding as well as you; I am not inferior to you. Indeed, who does not know such things as these?

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

nkjv@Job:12:6 @ The tents of robbers prosper, And those who provoke God are secure-- In what God provides by His hand.

nkjv@Job:12:7 @ "But now ask the beasts, and they will teach you; And the birds of the air, and they will tell you;

nkjv@Job:12:8 @ Or speak to the earth, and it will teach you; And the fish of the sea will explain to you.

nkjv@Job:12:9 @ Who among all these does not know That the hand of the LORD has done this,

nkjv@Job:12:10 @ In whose hand is the life of every living thing, And the breath of all mankind?

nkjv@Job:12:11 @ Does not the ear test words And the mouth taste its food?

nkjv@Job:12:12 @ Wisdom is with aged men, And with length of days, understanding.

nkjv@Job:12:13 @ "With Him are wisdom and strength, He has counsel and understanding.

nkjv@Job:12:16 @ With Him are strength and prudence. The deceived and the deceiver are His.

nkjv@Job:12:17 @ He leads counselors away plundered, And makes fools of the judges.

nkjv@Job:12:18 @ He loosens the bonds of kings, And binds their waist with a belt.

nkjv@Job:12:19 @ He leads princes away plundered, And overthrows the mighty.

nkjv@Job:12:20 @ He deprives the trusted ones of speech, And takes away the discernment of the elders.

nkjv@Job:12:21 @ He pours contempt on princes, And disarms the mighty.

nkjv@Job:12:22 @ He uncovers deep things out of darkness, And brings the shadow of death to light.

nkjv@Job:12:23 @ He makes nations great, and destroys them; He enlarges nations, and guides them.

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

nkjv@Job:12:25 @ They grope in the dark without light, And He makes them stagger like a drunken man.

nkjv@Job:13:1 @ "Behold, my eye has seen all this, My ear has heard and understood it.

nkjv@Job:13:3 @ But I would speak to the Almighty, And I desire to reason with God.

nkjv@Job:13:5 @ Oh, that you would be silent, And it would be your wisdom!

nkjv@Job:13:6 @ Now hear my reasoning, And heed the pleadings of my lips.

nkjv@Job:13:7 @ Will you speak wickedly for God, And talk deceitfully for Him?

nkjv@Job:13:11 @ Will not His excellence make you afraid, And the dread of Him fall upon you?

nkjv@Job:13:13 @ "Hold your peace with me, and let me speak, Then let come on me what may!

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

nkjv@Job:13:17 @ Listen carefully to my speech, And to my declaration with your ears.

nkjv@Job:13:21 @ Withdraw Your hand far from me, And let not the dread of You make me afraid.

nkjv@Job:13:22 @ Then call, and I will answer; Or let me speak, then You respond to me.

nkjv@Job:13:23 @ How many are my iniquities and sins? Make me know my transgression and my sin.

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

nkjv@Job:13:25 @ Will You frighten a leaf driven to and fro? And will You pursue dry stubble?

nkjv@Job:13:26 @ For You write bitter things against me, And make me inherit the iniquities of my youth.

nkjv@Job:13:27 @ You put my feet in the stocks, And watch closely all my paths. You set a limit for the soles of my feet.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

nkjv@Job:15:1 @ Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered and said:

nkjv@Job:15:2 @ "Should a wise man answer with empty knowledge, And fill himself with the east wind?

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

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

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

nkjv@Job:15:9 @ What do you know that we do not know? What do you understand that is not in us?

nkjv@Job:15:10 @ Both the gray-haired and the aged are among us, Much older than your father.

nkjv@Job:15:11 @ Are the consolations of God too small for you, And the word spoken gently with you?

nkjv@Job:30:30 @ My skin grows black and falls from me; My bones burn with fever.

nkjv@Job:30:31 @ My harp is turned to mourning, And my flute to the voice of those who weep.

nkjv@Job:31:2 @ For what is the allotment of God from above, And the inheritance of the Almighty from on high?

nkjv@Job:31:3 @ Is it not destruction for the wicked, And disaster for the workers of iniquity?

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

nkjv@Job:32:6 @ So Elihu, the son of Barachel the Buzite, answered and said: "I am young in years, and you are very old; Therefore I was afraid, And dared not declare my opinion to you.

nkjv@Job:33:22 @ Yes, his soul draws near the Pit, And his life to the executioners.

nkjv@Job:33:23 @ "If there is a messenger for him, A mediator, one among a thousand, To show man His uprightness,

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

nkjv@Job:42:9 @ So Eliphaz the Temanite and Bildad the Shuhite and Zophar the Naamathite went and did as the LORD commanded them; for the LORD had accepted Job.

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

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

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

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

nkjv@Job:42:15 @ In all the land were found no women so beautiful as the daughters of Job; and their father gave them an inheritance among their brothers.

nkjv@Proverbs:24:22 @ For their calamity will rise suddenly, And who knows the ruin those two can bring?

nkjv@Proverbs:24:27 @ Prepare your outside work, Make it fit for yourself in the field; And afterward build your house.

nkjv@Proverbs:24:30 @ I went by the field of the lazy man, And by the vineyard of the man devoid of understanding;

nkjv@Proverbs:24:31 @ And there it was, all overgrown with thorns; Its surface was covered with nettles; Its stone wall was broken down.

nkjv@Proverbs:24:32 @ When I saw it, I considered it well; I looked on it and received instruction:

nkjv@Proverbs:24:33 @ A little sleep, a little slumber, A little folding of the hands to rest;

nkjv@Proverbs:24:34 @ So shall your poverty come like a prowler, And your need like an armed man.

nkjv@Proverbs:26:19 @ Is the man who deceives his neighbor, And says, "I was only joking!"

nkjv@Proverbs:26:20 @ Where there is no wood, the fire goes out; And where there is no talebearer, strife ceases.

nkjv@Proverbs:26:21 @ As charcoal is to burning coals, and wood to fire, So is a contentious man to kindle strife.

nkjv@Proverbs:26:22 @ The words of a talebearer are like tasty trifles, And they go down into the inmost body.

nkjv@Proverbs:26:24 @ He who hates, disguises it with his lips, And lays up deceit within himself;

nkjv@Proverbs:26:27 @ Whoever digs a pit will fall into it, And he who rolls a stone will have it roll back on him.

nkjv@Proverbs:26:28 @ A lying tongue hates those who are crushed by it, And a flattering mouth works ruin.

nkjv@Proverbs:28:19 @ He who tills his land will have plenty of bread, But he who follows frivolity will have poverty enough!

nkjv@Proverbs:28:22 @ A man with an evil eye hastens after riches, And does not consider that poverty will come upon him.

nkjv@Proverbs:28:24 @ Whoever robs his father or his mother, And says, "It is no transgression," The same is companion to a destroyer.

nkjv@Proverbs:29:1 @ He who is often rebuked, and hardens his neck, Will suddenly be destroyed, and that without remedy.

nkjv@Proverbs:29:4 @ The king establishes the land by justice, But he who receives bribes overthrows it.

nkjv@Proverbs:29:6 @ By transgression an evil man is snared, But the righteous sings and rejoices.

nkjv@Proverbs:29:7 @ The righteous considers the cause of the poor, But the wicked does not understand such knowledge.

nkjv@Proverbs:29:13 @ The poor man and the oppressor have this in common: The LORD gives light to the eyes of both.

nkjv@Proverbs:29:15 @ The rod and rebuke give wisdom, But a child left to himself brings shame to his mother.

nkjv@Proverbs:29:17 @ Correct your son, and he will give you rest; Yes, he will give delight to your soul.

nkjv@Proverbs:29:19 @ A servant will not be corrected by mere words; For though he understands, he will not respond.

nkjv@Proverbs:30:2 @ Surely I am more stupid than any man, And do not have the understanding of a man.

nkjv@Proverbs:30:4 @ Who has ascended into heaven, or descended? Who has gathered the wind in His fists? Who has bound the waters in a garment? Who has established all the ends of the earth? What is His name, and what is His Son's name, If you know?

nkjv@Proverbs:30:6 @ Do not add to His words, Lest He rebuke you, and you be found a liar.

nkjv@Proverbs:30:8 @ Remove falsehood and lies far from me; Give me neither poverty nor riches-- Feed me with the food allotted to me;

nkjv@Proverbs:30:9 @ Lest I be full and deny You, And say, "Who is the LORD?" Or lest I be poor and steal, And profane the name of my God.

nkjv@Proverbs:30:10 @ Do not malign a servant to his master, Lest he curse you, and you be found guilty.

nkjv@Proverbs:30:14 @ There is a generation whose teeth are like swords, And whose fangs are like knives, To devour the poor from off the earth, And the needy from among men.

nkjv@Proverbs:30:15 @ The leech has two daughters-- Give and Give! There are three things that are never satisfied, Four never say, "Enough!":

nkjv@Proverbs:30:16 @ The grave, The barren womb, The earth that is not satisfied with water-- And the fire never says, "Enough!"

nkjv@Proverbs:30:17 @ The eye that mocks his father, And scorns obedience to his mother, The ravens of the valley will pick it out, And the young eagles will eat it.

nkjv@Proverbs:30:18 @ There are three things which are too wonderful for me, Yes, four which I do not understand:

nkjv@Proverbs:30:19 @ The way of an eagle in the air, The way of a serpent on a rock, The way of a ship in the midst of the sea, And the way of a man with a virgin.

nkjv@Proverbs:30:20 @ This is the way of an adulterous woman: She eats and wipes her mouth, And says, "I have done no wickedness."

nkjv@Proverbs:30:23 @ A hateful woman when she is married, And a maidservant who succeeds her mistress.

nkjv@Proverbs:30:28 @ The spider skillfully grasps with its hands, And it is in kings' palaces.

nkjv@Proverbs:30:30 @ A lion, which is mighty among beasts And does not turn away from any;

nkjv@Proverbs:30:31 @ A greyhound, A male goat also, And a king whose troops are with him.

nkjv@Proverbs:30:32 @ If you have been foolish in exalting yourself, Or if you have devised evil, put your hand on your mouth.

nkjv@Proverbs:30:33 @ For as the churning of milk produces butter, And wringing the nose produces blood, So the forcing of wrath produces strife.

nkjv@Proverbs:31:2 @ What, my son? And what, son of my womb? And what, son of my vows?

nkjv@Proverbs:31:5 @ Lest they drink and forget the law, And pervert the justice of all the afflicted.

nkjv@Proverbs:31:6 @ Give strong drink to him who is perishing, And wine to those who are bitter of heart.

nkjv@Proverbs:31:7 @ Let him drink and forget his poverty, And remember his misery no more.

nkjv@Proverbs:31:9 @ Open your mouth, judge righteously, And plead the cause of the poor and needy.

nkjv@Proverbs:31:11 @ The heart of her husband safely trusts her; So he will have no lack of gain.

nkjv@Proverbs:31:12 @ She does him good and not evil All the days of her life.

nkjv@Proverbs:31:13 @ She seeks wool and flax, And willingly works with her hands.

nkjv@Proverbs:31:15 @ She also rises while it is yet night, And provides food for her household, And a portion for her maidservants.

nkjv@Proverbs:31:16 @ She considers a field and buys it; From her profits she plants a vineyard.

nkjv@Proverbs:31:17 @ She girds herself with strength, And strengthens her arms.

nkjv@Proverbs:31:18 @ She perceives that her merchandise is good, And her lamp does not go out by night.

nkjv@Proverbs:31:19 @ She stretches out her hands to the distaff, And her hand holds the spindle.

nkjv@Proverbs:31:20 @ She extends her hand to the poor, Yes, she reaches out her hands to the needy.

nkjv@Proverbs:31:22 @ She makes tapestry for herself; Her clothing is fine linen and purple.

nkjv@Proverbs:31:23 @ Her husband is known in the gates, When he sits among the elders of the land.

nkjv@Proverbs:31:24 @ She makes linen garments and sells them, And supplies sashes for the merchants.

nkjv@Proverbs:31:25 @ Strength and honor are her clothing; She shall rejoice in time to come.

nkjv@Proverbs:31:26 @ She opens her mouth with wisdom, And on her tongue is the law of kindness.

nkjv@Proverbs:31:27 @ She watches over the ways of her household, And does not eat the bread of idleness.

nkjv@Proverbs:31:28 @ Her children rise up and call her blessed; Her husband also, and he praises her:

nkjv@Proverbs:31:30 @ Charm is deceitful and beauty is passing, But a woman who fears the LORD, she shall be praised.

nkjv@Proverbs:31:31 @ Give her of the fruit of her hands, And let her own works praise her in the gates.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:1:4 @ One generation passes away, and another generation comes; But the earth abides forever.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:1:5 @ The sun also rises, and the sun goes down, And hastens to the place where it arose.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:1:6 @ The wind goes toward the south, And turns around to the north; The wind whirls about continually, And comes again on its circuit.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:1:9 @ That which has been is what will be, That which is done is what will be done, And there is nothing new under the sun.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:1:13 @ And I set my heart to seek and search out by wisdom concerning all that is done under heaven; this burdensome task God has given to the sons of man, by which they may be exercised.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:1:14 @ I have seen all the works that are done under the sun; and indeed, all is vanity and grasping for the wind.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:1:15 @ What is crooked cannot be made straight, And what is lacking cannot be numbered.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:1:16 @ I communed with my heart, saying, "Look, I have attained greatness, and have gained more wisdom than all who were before me in Jerusalem. My heart has understood great wisdom and knowledge."

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:1:17 @ And I set my heart to know wisdom and to know madness and folly. I perceived that this also is grasping for the wind.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:1:18 @ For in much wisdom is much grief, And he who increases knowledge increases sorrow.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:2 @ I said of laughter--"Madness!"; and of mirth, "What does it accomplish?"

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:3 @ I searched in my heart how to gratify my flesh with wine, while guiding my heart with wisdom, and how to lay hold on folly, till I might see what was good for the sons of men to do under heaven all the days of their lives.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:4 @ I made my works great, I built myself houses, and planted myself vineyards.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:5 @ I made myself gardens and orchards, and I planted all kinds of fruit trees in them.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:7 @ I acquired male and female servants, and had servants born in my house. Yes, I had greater possessions of herds and flocks than all who were in Jerusalem before me.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:8 @ I also gathered for myself silver and gold and the special treasures of kings and of the provinces. I acquired male and female singers, the delights of the sons of men, and musical instruments of all kinds.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:9 @ So I became great and excelled more than all who were before me in Jerusalem. Also my wisdom remained with me.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:10 @ Whatever my eyes desired I did not keep from them. I did not withhold my heart from any pleasure, For my heart rejoiced in all my labor; And this was my reward from all my labor.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:11 @ Then I looked on all the works that my hands had done And on the labor in which I had toiled; And indeed all was vanity and grasping for the wind. There was no profit under the sun.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:12 @ Then I turned myself to consider wisdom and madness and folly; For what can the man do who succeeds the king?-- Only what he has already done.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:15 @ So I said in my heart, "As it happens to the fool, It also happens to me, And why was I then more wise?" Then I said in my heart, "This also is vanity."

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:16 @ For there is no more remembrance of the wise than of the fool forever, Since all that now is will be forgotten in the days to come. And how does a wise man die? As the fool!

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:17 @ Therefore I hated life because the work that was done under the sun was distressing to me, for all is vanity and grasping for the wind.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:19 @ And who knows whether he will be wise or a fool? Yet he will rule over all my labor in which I toiled and in which I have shown myself wise under the sun. This also is vanity.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:20 @ Therefore I turned my heart and despaired of all the labor in which I had toiled under the sun.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:21 @ For there is a man whose labor is with wisdom, knowledge, and skill; yet he must leave his heritage to a man who has not labored for it. This also is vanity and a great evil.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:22 @ For what has man for all his labor, and for the striving of his heart with which he has toiled under the sun?

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:23 @ For all his days are sorrowful, and his work burdensome; even in the night his heart takes no rest. This also is vanity.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:24 @ Nothing is better for a man than that he should eat and drink, and that his soul should enjoy good in his labor. This also, I saw, was from the hand of God.

nkjv@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 the work of gathering and collecting, that he may give to him who is good before God. This also is vanity and grasping for the wind.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:3:2 @ A time to be born, And a time to die; A time to plant, And a time to pluck what is planted;

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:3:3 @ A time to kill, And a time to heal; A time to break down, And a time to build up;

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:3:4 @ A time to weep, And a time to laugh; A time to mourn, And a time to dance;

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:3:5 @ A time to cast away stones, And a time to gather stones; A time to embrace, And a time to refrain from embracing;

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:3:6 @ A time to gain, And a time to lose; A time to keep, And a time to throw away;

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:3:7 @ A time to tear, And a time to sew; A time to keep silence, And a time to speak;

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:3:8 @ A time to love, And a time to hate; A time of war, And a time of peace.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:3:12 @ I know that nothing is better for them than to rejoice, and to do good in their lives,

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:3:13 @ and also that every man should eat and drink and enjoy the good of all his labor--it is the gift of God.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:3:14 @ I know that whatever God does, It shall be forever. Nothing can be added to it, And nothing taken from it. God does it, that men should fear before Him.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:3:15 @ That which is has already been, And what is to be has already been; And God requires an account of what is past.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:3:16 @ Moreover I saw under the sun: In the place of judgment, Wickedness was there; And in the place of righteousness, Iniquity was there.

nkjv@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."

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:3:20 @ All go to one place: all are from the dust, and all return to dust.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:3:21 @ Who knows the spirit of the sons of men, which goes upward, and the spirit of the animal, which goes down to the earth?

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:1 @ Walk prudently when you go to the house of God; and draw near to hear rather than to give the sacrifice of fools, for they do not know that they do evil.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:2 @ Do not be rash with your mouth, And let not your heart utter anything hastily before God. For God is in heaven, and you on earth; Therefore let your words be few.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:3 @ For a dream comes through much activity, And a fool's voice is known by his many words.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:5 @ Better not to vow than to vow and not pay.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:6 @ Do not let your mouth cause your flesh to sin, nor say before the messenger of God that it was an error. Why should God be angry at your excuse and destroy the work of your hands?

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:7 @ For in the multitude of dreams and many words there is also vanity. But fear God.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:8 @ If you see the oppression of the poor, and the violent perversion of justice and righteousness in a province, do not marvel at the matter; for high official watches over high official, and higher officials are over them.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:9 @ Moreover the profit of the land is for all; even the king is served from the field.

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

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:15 @ As he came from his mother's womb, naked shall he return, To go as he came; And he shall take nothing from his labor Which he may carry away in his hand.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:16 @ And this also is a severe evil-- Just exactly as he came, so shall he go. And what profit has he who has labored for the wind?

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:17 @ All his days he also eats in darkness, And he has much sorrow and sickness and anger.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:18 @ Here is what I have seen: It is good and fitting for one to eat and drink, and to enjoy the good of all his labor in which he toils under the sun all the days of his life which God gives him; for it is his heritage.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:19 @ As for every man to whom God has given riches and wealth, and given him power to eat of it, to receive his heritage and rejoice in his labor--this is the gift of God.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:6:1 @ There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, and it is common among men:

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:6:2 @ A man to whom God has given riches and wealth and honor, so that he lacks nothing for himself of all he desires; yet God does not give him power to eat of it, but a foreigner consumes it. This is vanity, and it is an evil affliction.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:6:3 @ If a man begets a hundred children and lives many years, so that the days of his years are many, but his soul is not satisfied with goodness, or indeed he has no burial, I say that a stillborn child is better than he--

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

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:6:6 @ even if he lives a thousand years twice--but has not seen goodness. Do not all go to one place?

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:6:7 @ All the labor of man is for his mouth, And yet the soul is not satisfied.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:6:9 @ Better is the sight of the eyes than the wandering of desire. This also is vanity and grasping for the wind.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:6:10 @ Whatever one is, he has been named already, For it is known that he is man; And he cannot contend with Him who is mightier than he.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:1 @ A good name is better than precious ointment, And the day of death than the day of one's birth;

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:2 @ 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 take it to heart.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:7 @ Surely oppression destroys a wise man's reason, And a bribe debases the heart.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:11 @ Wisdom is good with an inheritance, And profitable to those who see the sun.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:15 @ I have seen everything in my days of vanity: There is a just man who perishes in his righteousness, And there is a wicked man who prolongs life in his wickedness.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:18 @ It is good that you grasp this, And also not remove your hand from the other; For he who fears God will escape them all.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:20 @ For there is not a just man on earth who does good And does not sin.

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

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:25 @ I applied my heart to know, To search and seek out wisdom and the reason of things, To know the wickedness of folly, Even of foolishness and madness.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:26 @ And I find more bitter than death The woman whose heart is snares and nets, Whose hands are fetters. He who pleases God shall escape from her, But the sinner shall be trapped by her.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:28 @ Which my soul still seeks but I cannot find: One man among a thousand I have found, But a woman among all these I have not found.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:1 @ Who is like a wise man? And who knows the interpretation of a thing? A man's wisdom makes his face shine, And the sternness of his face is changed.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:2 @ I say, "Keep the king's commandment for the sake of your oath to God.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:3 @ Do not be hasty to go from his presence. Do not take your stand for an evil thing, for he does whatever pleases him."

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

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:5 @ He who keeps his command will experience nothing harmful; And a wise man's heart discerns both time and judgment,

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:6 @ Because for every matter there is a time and judgment, Though the misery of man increases greatly.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:8 @ No one has power over the spirit to retain the spirit, And no one has power in the day of death. There is no release from that war, And wickedness will not deliver those who are given to it.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:9 @ All this I have seen, and applied 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.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:10 @ Then I saw the wicked buried, who had come and gone from the place of holiness, and they were forgotten in the city where they had so done. This also is vanity.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:12 @ Though a sinner does evil a hundred times, and his days are prolonged, yet I surely know that it will be well with those who fear God, who fear before Him.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:15 @ So I commended enjoyment, because a man has nothing better under the sun than to eat, drink, and be merry; for this will remain with him in his labor all the days of his life which God gives him under the sun.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:16 @ When I applied my heart to know wisdom and to see the business that is done on earth, even though one sees no sleep day or night,

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:1 @ For I considered all this in my heart, so that I could declare it all: that the righteous and the wise and their works are in the hand of God. People know neither love nor hatred by anything they see before them.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:2 @ All things come alike to all: One event happens to the righteous and the wicked; To the good, the clean, and the unclean; To him who sacrifices and him who does not sacrifice. As is the good, so is the sinner; He who takes an oath as he who fears an oath.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:3 @ This is an evil in all that is done under the sun: that one thing happens to all. Truly the hearts of the sons of men are full of evil; madness is in their hearts while they live, and after that they go to the dead.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:5 @ For the living know that they will die; But the dead know nothing, And they have no more reward, For the memory of them is forgotten.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:6 @ Also their love, their hatred, and their envy have now perished; Nevermore will they have a share In anything done under the sun.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:7 @ Go, eat your bread with joy, And drink your wine with a merry heart; For God has already accepted your works.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:8 @ Let your garments always be white, And let your head lack no oil.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:9 @ Live joyfully with the wife whom you love all the days of your vain life which He has given you under the sun, all your days of vanity; for that is your portion in life, and in the labor which you perform under the sun.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:10 @ Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with your might; for there is no work or device or knowledge or wisdom in the grave where you are going.

nkjv@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 bread to the wise, Nor riches to men of understanding, Nor favor to men of skill; But time and chance happen to them all.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:13 @ This wisdom I have also seen under the sun, and it seemed great to me:

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

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:15 @ Now there was found in it a poor wise man, and he by his wisdom delivered the city. Yet no one remembered that same poor man.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:16 @ Then I said: "Wisdom is better than strength. Nevertheless the poor man's wisdom is despised, And his words are not heard.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:1 @ Dead flies putrefy the perfumer's ointment, And cause it to give off a foul odor; So does a little folly to one respected for wisdom and honor.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:2 @ A wise man's heart is at his right hand, But a fool's heart at his left.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:3 @ Even when a fool walks along the way, He lacks wisdom, And he shows everyone that he is a fool.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:8 @ He who digs a pit will fall into it, And whoever breaks through a wall will be bitten by a serpent.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:9 @ He who quarries stones may be hurt by them, And he who splits wood may be endangered by it.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:10 @ If the ax is dull, And one does not sharpen the edge, Then he must use more strength; But wisdom brings success.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:13 @ The words of his mouth begin with foolishness, And the end of his talk is raving madness.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:16 @ Woe to you, O land, when your king is a child, And your princes feast in the morning!

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:17 @ Blessed are you, O land, when your king is the son of nobles, And your princes feast at the proper time-- For strength and not for drunkenness!

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:18 @ Because of laziness the building decays, And through idleness of hands the house leaks.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:19 @ A feast is made for laughter, And wine makes merry; But money answers everything.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:20 @ Do not curse the king, even in your thought; Do not curse the rich, even in your bedroom; For a bird of the air may carry your voice, And a bird in flight may tell the matter.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:11:2 @ Give a serving to seven, and also to eight, For you do not know what evil will be on the earth.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:11:3 @ If the clouds are full of rain, They empty themselves upon the earth; And if a tree falls to the south or the north, In the place where the tree falls, there it shall lie.

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

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:11:6 @ In the morning sow your seed, And in the evening do not withhold your hand; For you do not know which will prosper, Either this or that, Or whether both alike will be good.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:11:7 @ Truly the light is sweet, And it is pleasant for the eyes to behold the sun;

nkjv@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 will be many. All that is coming is vanity.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:11:9 @ Rejoice, O young man, in your youth, And let your heart cheer you in the days of your youth; Walk in the ways of your heart, And in the sight of your eyes; But know that for all these God will bring you into judgment.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:11:10 @ Therefore remove sorrow from your heart, And put away evil from your flesh, For childhood and youth are vanity.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:1 @ Remember now your Creator in the days of your youth, Before the difficult days come, And the years draw near when you say, "I have no pleasure in them":

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:2 @ While the sun and the light, The moon and the stars, Are not darkened, And the clouds do not return after the rain;

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:3 @ In the day when the keepers of the house tremble, And the strong men bow down; When the grinders cease because they are few, And those that look through the windows grow dim;

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

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:5 @ Also they are afraid of height, And of terrors in the way; When the almond tree blossoms, The grasshopper is a burden, And desire fails. For man goes to his eternal home, And the mourners go about the streets.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:7 @ Then the dust will return to the earth as it was, And the spirit will return to God who gave it.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:9 @ And moreover, because the Preacher was wise, he still taught the people knowledge; yes, he pondered and sought out and set in order many proverbs.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:10 @ The Preacher sought to find acceptable words; and what was written was upright--words of truth.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:11 @ The words of the wise are like goads, and the words of scholars are like well-driven nails, given by one Shepherd.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:12 @ And further, my son, be admonished by these. Of making many books there is no end, and much study is wearisome to the flesh.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:13 @ Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God and keep His commandments, For this is man's all.

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

nkjv@Songs:1:8 @ If you do not know, O fairest among women, Follow in the footsteps of the flock, And feed your little goats Beside the shepherds' tents.

nkjv@Songs:1:16 @ Behold, you are handsome, my beloved! Yes, pleasant! Also our bed is green.

nkjv@Songs:1:17 @ The beams of our houses are cedar, And our rafters of fir.

nkjv@Songs:2:1 @ I am the rose of Sharon, And the lily of the valleys.

nkjv@Songs:2:3 @ Like an apple tree among the trees of the woods, So is my beloved among the sons. I sat down in his shade with great delight, And his fruit was sweet to my taste.

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

nkjv@Songs:2:6 @ His left hand is under my head, And his right hand embraces me.

nkjv@Songs:2:9 @ My beloved is like a gazelle or a young stag. Behold, he stands behind our wall; He is looking through the windows, Gazing through the lattice.

nkjv@Songs:2:10 @ My beloved spoke, and said to me: "Rise up, my love, my fair one, And come away.

nkjv@Songs:2:11 @ For lo, the winter is past, The rain is over and gone.

nkjv@Songs:2:12 @ The flowers appear on the earth; The time of singing has come, And the voice of the turtledove Is heard in our land.

nkjv@Songs:2:13 @ The fig tree puts forth her green figs, And the vines with the tender grapes Give a good smell. Rise up, my love, my fair one, And come away!

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

nkjv@Songs:2:16 @ My beloved is mine, and I am his. He feeds his flock among the lilies.

nkjv@Songs:2:17 @ Until the day breaks And the shadows flee away, Turn, my beloved, And be like a gazelle Or a young stag Upon the mountains of Bether.

nkjv@Songs:3:2 @ "I will rise now," I said, "And go about the city; In the streets and in the squares I will seek the one I love." I sought him, but I did not find him.

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

nkjv@Songs:3:6 @ Who is this coming out of the wilderness Like pillars of smoke, Perfumed with myrrh and frankincense, With all the merchant's fragrant powders?

nkjv@Songs:3:11 @ Go forth, O daughters of Zion, And see King Solomon with the crown With which his mother crowned him On the day of his wedding, The day of the gladness of his heart.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

nkjv@Songs:5:5 @ I arose to open for my beloved, And my hands dripped with myrrh, My fingers with liquid myrrh, On the handles of the lock.

nkjv@Songs:5:6 @ I opened for my beloved, But my beloved had turned away and was gone. My heart leaped up when he spoke. I sought him, but I could not find him; I called him, but he gave me no answer.

nkjv@Songs:5:10 @ My beloved is white and ruddy, Chief among ten thousand.

nkjv@Songs:5:11 @ His head is like the finest gold; His locks are wavy, And black as a raven.

nkjv@Songs:5:12 @ His eyes are like doves By the rivers of waters, Washed with milk, And fitly set.

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

nkjv@Songs:6:2 @ My beloved has gone to his garden, To the beds of spices, To feed his flock in the gardens, And to gather lilies.

nkjv@Songs:6:3 @ I am my beloved's, And my beloved is mine. He feeds his flock among the lilies.

nkjv@Songs:6:8 @ There are sixty queens And eighty concubines, And virgins without number.

nkjv@Songs:6:11 @ I went down to the garden of nuts To see the verdure of the valley, To see whether the vine had budded And the pomegranates had bloomed.

nkjv@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.

nkjv@Songs:7:5 @ Your head crowns you like Mount Carmel, And the hair of your head is like purple; A king is held captive by your tresses.

nkjv@Songs:7:6 @ How fair and how pleasant you are, O love, with your delights!

nkjv@Songs:7:7 @ This stature of yours is like a palm tree, And your breasts like its clusters.

nkjv@Songs:7:9 @ And the roof of your mouth like the best wine. The wine goes down smoothly for my beloved, Moving gently the lips of sleepers.

nkjv@Songs:7:10 @ I am my beloved's, And his desire is toward me.

nkjv@Songs:7:12 @ Let us get up early to the vineyards; Let us see if the vine has budded, Whether the grape blossoms are open, And the pomegranates are in bloom. There I will give you my love.

nkjv@Songs:7:13 @ The mandrakes give off a fragrance, And at our gates are pleasant fruits, All manner, new and old, Which I have laid up for you, my beloved.

nkjv@Songs:8:3 @ His left hand is under my head, And his right hand embraces me.

nkjv@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 is spoken for?

nkjv@Songs:8:9 @ If she is a wall, We will build upon her A battlement of silver; And if she is a door, We will enclose her With boards of cedar.

nkjv@Songs:8:10 @ I am a wall, And my breasts like towers; Then I became in his eyes As one who found peace.

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