noyes@Job:1:1 @ In the land of Uz lived a man whose name was Job. He was an upright and good man, fearing God and departing from evil.

noyes@Job:1:3 @ His substance was seven thousand sheep, three thousand camels, five hundred yoke of oxen, five hundred she–asses, and a great number of servants; so that he was the greatest of all the inhabitants of the East.

noyes@Job:1:4 @ Now it was the custom of his sons to make a feast in their houses, each on his day, and to send and invite their three sisters to eat and to drink with them.

noyes@Job:1:5 @ And when the days of their feasting had gone round, Job used to send for them and sanctify them, and to rise up 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 have renounced God in their hearts. Thus did Job continually.

noyes@Job:1:6 @ Now on a certain day the sons of God came to present themselves before Jehovah, and Satan also came among them.

noyes@Job:1:7 @ And Jehovah said to Satan, Whence comest thou? Then Satan answered Jehovah, and said, From wandering over the earth, and walking up and down in it.

noyes@Job:1:8 @ And Jehovah said to Satan, Hast thou observed my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, an upright and good man, fearing God and departing from evil?

noyes@Job:1:10 @ Hast thou not placed a hedge around him, and around his house, and around all his possessions? Thou hast prospered the work of his hands, and his herds are greatly increased in the land.

noyes@Job:1:12 @ And Jehovah said to Satan, Behold, all that he hath is in thy power; but upon him lay not thy hand. So Satan went forth from the presence of Jehovah.

noyes@Job:1:13 @ Now on a certain day the sons and daughters of Job were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother’s house,

noyes@Job:1:14 @ when a messenger came to Job, and said, The oxen were ploughing, and the asses feeding beside them,

noyes@Job:1:16 @ While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, The fire of God hath fallen from heaven, and hath burned up the sheep and the servants, and consumed them; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee.

noyes@Job:1:17 @ While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, The Chaldaeans made out three bands, and fell upon the camels, and carried them away; the servants also they slew with the edge of the sword; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee.

noyes@Job:1:18 @ While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, Thy sons and thy daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother’s house;

noyes@Job:1:19 @ and, lo! there came a great wind from the desert, and smote the four corners of the house, and it fell upon the young men, and they are dead; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee.

noyes@Job:2:3 @ Then said Jehovah to Satan, Hast thou observed my servant Job, that there is none like him upon the earth, an upright and good man, fearing God and departing from evil? And still he holdeth fast his integrity, although thou didst excite me against him to destroy him without a cause.

noyes@Job:2:4 @ And Satan answered Jehovah, and said, Skin for skin, yea, all that a man hath will he give for his life.

noyes@Job:2:6 @ And Jehovah said to Satan, Behold, he is in thy hand; but spare his life.

noyes@Job:2:9 @ Then said his wife to him, Dost thou still retain thine integrity? Renounce God, and die.

noyes@Job:2:10 @ But he said to her, Thou talkest like one of the foolish women. What! shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil? In all this, Job sinned not with his lips.

noyes@Job:2:12 @ And they lifted up their eyes at a distance, and knew him not; then they raised their voices and wept, and rent each one his mantle, and sprinkled dust upon their heads toward heaven.

noyes@Job:3:3 @ Perish the day in which I was born, and the night which said, "A man–child is conceived!"

noyes@Job:3:4 @ Let that day be darkness; Let not God seek it from above; Yea, let not the light shine upon it!

noyes@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!

noyes@Job:3:7 @ O let that night be unfruitful! Let there be in it no voice of joy;

noyes@Job:3:9 @ Let the stars of its twilight be darkened; Let it long for light, and have none; Neither let it see the eyelashes of the morning!

noyes@Job:3:10 @ Because it shut not up the doors of my mother’s womb, And hid not trouble from mine eyes.

noyes@Job:3:14 @ With kings and counsellors of the earth, Who built up for themselves––ruins!

noyes@Job:3:15 @ Or with princes that had gold, And filled their houses with silver;

noyes@Job:3:16 @ Or, as a hidden untimely birth, I had perished; As infants which never saw the light.

noyes@Job:3:17 @ There the wicked cease from troubling; There the weary are at rest.

noyes@Job:3:20 @ Why giveth He light to him that is in misery, And life to the bitter in soul,

noyes@Job:3:22 @ Who rejoice exceedingly, Yea, exult, when they can find a grave?

noyes@Job:3:23 @ Why is light given to a man from whom the way is hid, And whom God hath hedged in?

noyes@Job:3:24 @ For my sighing cometh before I eat, And my groans are poured out like water.

noyes@Job:3:26 @ I have no peace, nor quiet, nor respite: Misery cometh upon me continually.

noyes@Job:4:2 @ If one attempt a word with thee, wilt thou be offended? But who can refrain from speaking?

noyes@Job:4:4 @ Thy words have upheld him that was falling, And thou hast given strength to feeble knees.

noyes@Job:4:5 @ But now it is come upon thee, and thou faintest; It toucheth thee, and thou art confounded!

noyes@Job:4:7 @ Remember, I pray thee, who ever perished being innocent? Or where have the righteous been cut off?

noyes@Job:4:8 @ According to what I have seen, they who plough iniquity, And sow mischief, reap the same.

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

noyes@Job:4:12 @ A word was once secretly brought to me, And mine ear caught a whisper thereof.

noyes@Job:4:16 @ It stood still, but its form I could not discern; An image was before mine eyes; There was silence, and I heard a voice:

noyes@Job:4:18 @ Behold, he putteth no trust in his ministering spirits, And his angels he chargeth with frailty.

noyes@Job:4:19 @ What then are they who dwell in houses of clay, Whose foundation is in the dust, Who crumble to pieces, as if moth–eaten!

noyes@Job:4:20 @ Between morning and evening are they destroyed; They perish for ever, and none regardeth it.

noyes@Job:4:21 @ The excellency that is in them is torn away; They die before they have become wise."

noyes@Job:5:3 @ I have seen an impious man taking root, But soon I cursed his habitation.

noyes@Job:5:5 @ His harvest the hungry devour, Carrying it even through the thorns; And a snare gapeth after his substance.

noyes@Job:5:6 @ For affliction cometh not from the dust, Nor doth trouble spring up from the ground;

noyes@Job:5:9 @ Who doeth great things and unsearchable; Yea, marvellous things without number;

noyes@Job:5:10 @ Who giveth rain upon the earth, And sendeth water upon the fields;

noyes@Job:5:11 @ Who placeth the lowly in high places, And restoreth the afflicted to prosperity;

noyes@Job:5:12 @ Who disappointeth the devices of the crafty, So that their hands cannot perform their enterprises;

noyes@Job:5:13 @ Who taketh the wise in their own craftiness, And bringeth to nought the counsel of the artful.

noyes@Job:5:14 @ They meet with darkness in the daytime; They grope at noon as if it were night.

noyes@Job:5:16 @ So the poor hath hope, And iniquity stoppeth her mouth.

noyes@Job:5:17 @ Behold, happy is the man whom God correcteth; Therefore despise not thou the chastening of the Almighty.

noyes@Job:5:18 @ For he bruiseth, and bindeth up; He woundeth, and his hands make whole.

noyes@Job:5:19 @ In six troubles will he deliver thee; Yea, in seven shall no evil touch thee.

noyes@Job:5:20 @ In famine he will redeem thee from death, And in war from the power of the sword.

noyes@Job:5:22 @ At destruction and famine thou shalt laugh, And of the wild beasts of the land shalt thou not be afraid.

noyes@Job:5:23 @ For thou shalt be in league with the stones of the field; Yea, the beasts of the forest shall be at peace with thee.

noyes@Job:6:2 @ O that my grief were weighed thoroughly! That my calamities were put together in the balance!

noyes@Job:6:4 @ For the arrows of the Almighty have pierced me; Their poison drinketh up my spirit; The terrors of God set themselves in array against me.

noyes@Job:6:5 @ Doth the wild ass bray in the midst of grass? Or loweth the ox over his fodder?

noyes@Job:6:6 @ Can that which is unsavory be eaten without salt? Is there any taste in the white of an egg?

noyes@Job:6:10 @ Yet it should still be my consolation, Yea, in unsparing anguish I would exult, That I have not denied the commands of the Holy One.

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

noyes@Job:6:13 @ Alas, there is no help within me! Deliverance is driven from me!

noyes@Job:6:22 @ Have I said, Bring me gifts? Or, Give a present for me out of your substance?

noyes@Job:6:24 @ Convince me, and I will hold my peace; Cause me to understand wherein I have erred.

noyes@Job:6:26 @ Do ye mean to censure words? The words of a man in despair are but wind.

noyes@Job:6:30 @ Is there iniquity on my tongue? Cannot my taste discern what is sinful?

noyes@Job:7:1 @ Is there not a war–service for man on the earth? Are not his days as the days of a hireling?

noyes@Job:7:2 @ As a servant panteth for the shade, And as a hireling looketh for his wages,

noyes@Job:7:3 @ So am I made to possess months of affliction, And wearisome nights are appointed for me.

noyes@Job:7:4 @ If I lie down, I say, When shall I arise, and the night be gone? And I am full of restlessness until the dawning of the day.

noyes@Job:7:5 @ My flesh is clothed with worms, and clods of dust; My skin is broken and become loathsome.

noyes@Job:7:7 @ O remember that my life is a breath; That mine eye shall no more see good!

noyes@Job:7:8 @ The eye of him that hath seen me shall see me no more; Thine eyes shall look for me, but I shall not be.

noyes@Job:7:10 @ No more shall he return to his house, And his dwelling–place shall know him no more.

noyes@Job:7:11 @ Therefore I will not restrain my mouth; I will speak in the anguish of my spirit; I will complain in the bitterness of my soul.

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

noyes@Job:7:15 @ So that my soul chooseth strangling, Yea, death, rather than these my bones.

noyes@Job:7:16 @ I am wasting away; I shall not live alway: Let me alone, for my days are a vapor!

noyes@Job:7:17 @ What is man, that thou shouldst make great account him, And fix thy mind upon him?––

noyes@Job:7:18 @ That thou shouldst visit him every morning, And prove him every moment?

noyes@Job:7:20 @ If I have sinned, what have I done to thee, O thou watcher of men! Why hast thou set me up as thy mark, So that I have become a burden to myself?

noyes@Job:7:21 @ And why dost thou not pardon my transgression, And take away mine iniquity? (note:)(7:22)(:note) For soon shall I sleep in the dust; And, though thou seek me diligently, I shall not be.

noyes@Job:8:2 @ How long wilt thou speak such things? How long shall the words of thy mouth be like a strong wind?

noyes@Job:8:4 @ As thy children sinned against him, He hath given them up to their transgression.

noyes@Job:8:7 @ So that thy beginning shall be small, And thy latter end very great.

noyes@Job:8:8 @ For inquire, I pray thee, of the former age, And mark what hath been searched out by their fathers;

noyes@Job:8:9 @ (For we are of yesterday and know nothing, Since our days upon the earth are but a shadow;)

noyes@Job:8:10 @ Will not they instruct thee, and tell thee, And utter words from their understanding?

noyes@Job:8:12 @ While it is yet in its greenness, and is not cut down, It withereth before any other herb.

noyes@Job:8:16 @ He is in full green before the sun, And his branches shoot forth over his garden;

noyes@Job:8:17 @ His roots are entwined about the heap, And he seeth the place of stones;

noyes@Job:8:18 @ When he shall be destroyed from his place, It shall deny him, saying, ‘I never saw thee.’

noyes@Job:8:19 @ Lo! such is the joy of his course! And others shall spring up from his place"

noyes@Job:8:22 @ They that hate thee shall be clothed with shame, And the dwelling–place of the wicked shall come to nought.

noyes@Job:9:4 @ He is excellent in wisdom, mighty in strength: Who hath hardened himself against him, and prospered?

noyes@Job:9:5 @ He removeth the mountains, and they know it not; He overturneth them in his anger.

noyes@Job:9:10 @ He doeth great things past finding out, Yea, wonderful things without number.

noyes@Job:9:12 @ Lo! he seizeth, and who can hinder him? Who will say to him, What doest thou?

noyes@Job:9:15 @ Though I were innocent, I would not answer him; I would cast myself on the mercy of my judge.

noyes@Job:9:20 @ Though I were upright, yet must my own mouth condemn me; Though I were innocent, He would prove me perverse.

noyes@Job:9:21 @ Though I were innocent, I would not care for myself; I would despise my life.

noyes@Job:9:23 @ When the scourge bringeth sudden destruction, He laugheth at the sufferings of the innocent.

noyes@Job:9:24 @ The earth is given into the hands of the wicked; He covereth the face of the judges thereof; If it be not He, who is it?

noyes@Job:9:26 @ They have gone by like the reed–skiffs; Like the eagle, darting upon his prey.

noyes@Job:9:28 @ Still am I in dread of the multitude of my sorrows; For I know that thou wilt not hold me innocent.

noyes@Job:9:29 @ I shall be found guilty; Why then should I labor in vain?

noyes@Job:9:30 @ If I wash myself in snow, And cleanse my hands with lye,

noyes@Job:9:31 @ Still wilt thou plunge me into the pit, So that my own clothes will abhor me.

noyes@Job:9:32 @ For He is not a man, as I am, that I may contend with him, And that we may go together into judgment;

noyes@Job:10:1 @ I am weary of my life; I will let loose within me my complaint; I will speak in the bitterness of my soul.

noyes@Job:10:3 @ Is it a pleasure to thee to oppress, And to despise the work of thy hands, And to shine upon the plans of the wicked?

noyes@Job:10:6 @ That thou seekest after my iniquity, And searchest after my sin,

noyes@Job:10:8 @ Have thy hands completely fashioned and made me In every part, that thou mightst destroy me?

noyes@Job:10:9 @ O remember that thou hast moulded me as clay! And wilt thou bring me again to dust?

noyes@Job:10:11 @ With skin and flesh didst thou clothe me, And strengthen me with bones and sinews;

noyes@Job:10:13 @ Yet these things thou didst lay up in thy heart! I know that this was in thy mind.

noyes@Job:10:14 @ If I sin, then thou markest me, And wilt not acquit me of mine iniquity.

noyes@Job:10:15 @ If I am wicked,––then woe unto me! Yet if righteous, I dare not lift up my head; I am full of confusion, beholding my affliction.

noyes@Job:10:16 @ If I lift it up, like a lion thou huntest me, And again showest thyself terrible unto me.

noyes@Job:10:17 @ Thou renewest thy witnesses against me, And increasest thine anger toward me; New hosts continually rise up against me.

noyes@Job:10:18 @ Why then didst thou bring me forth from the womb? I should have perished, and no eye had seen me;

noyes@Job:11:3 @ Shall thy boastings make men hold their peace? Shalt thou mock, and none put thee to shame?

noyes@Job:11:4 @ Thou sayest, My speech is pure; I am clean in thine eyes,

noyes@Job:11:5 @ But O that God would speak, And open his lips against thee;

noyes@Job:11:6 @ That he would show thee the secrets of his wisdom,––His wisdom, which is unsearchable! Then shouldst thou know that God forgiveth thee many of thine iniquities.

noyes@Job:11:7 @ Canst thou search out the deep things of God? Canst thou find out the Almighty to perfection?

noyes@Job:11:10 @ If he apprehend, and bind, and bring to trial, Who shall oppose him?

noyes@Job:11:11 @ For he knoweth the unrighteous; He seeth iniquity, when they do not observe it.

noyes@Job:11:12 @ But vain man is without understanding; Yea, man is born a wild ass’s colt.

noyes@Job:11:14 @ If thou put away iniquity from thy hand, And let not wickedness dwell in thy habitation,––

noyes@Job:11:17 @ Thy life shall be brighter than the noon–day; Now thou art in darkness, thou shalt then be as morning.

noyes@Job:11:18 @ Thou shalt be secure, because there is hope; Now thou art disappointed, thou shalt then rest in safety.

noyes@Job:11:20 @ But the eyes of the wicked shall be wearied out; They shall find no refuge; Their hope is––the breathing forth of life.

noyes@Job:12:3 @ But I have understanding as well as you; I am not inferior to you: Yea, who knoweth not such things as these?

noyes@Job:12:4 @ I am become a laughing–stock to my friend,––I who call upon God, that he would answer me! The innocent and upright man is held in derision.

noyes@Job:12:5 @ To calamity belongeth contempt in the mind of one at ease; It is ready for them that slip with the feet.

noyes@Job:12:6 @ The tents of robbers are in prosperity, And they who provoke God are secure, Who carry their God in their hand.

noyes@Job:12:8 @ Or speak to the earth, and it will instruct thee; And the fishes of the sea will declare unto thee.

noyes@Job:12:9 @ Who among all these doth not know That the hand of Jehovah doeth these things?

noyes@Job:12:10 @ In whose hand is the soul of every living thing, And the breath of all mankind.

noyes@Job:12:12 @ With the aged is wisdom, And with length of days is understanding.

noyes@Job:12:13 @ With Him are wisdom and strength; With Him counsel and understanding.

noyes@Job:12:14 @ Lo! he pulleth down, and it shall not be rebuilt; He bindeth a man, and he shall not be set loose.

noyes@Job:12:18 @ He looseth the authority of kings, And bindeth their loins with a cord.

noyes@Job:12:21 @ He poureth contempt upon princes, And looseth the girdle of the mighty.

noyes@Job:12:22 @ He revealeth deep things out of darkness, And bringeth the shadow of death to light.

noyes@Job:12:24 @ He taketh away the understanding of the great men of the land, And causeth them to wander in a wilderness, where is no path;

noyes@Job:12:25 @ They grope in the dark without light; He maketh them stagger like a drunken man.

noyes@Job:13:1 @ Lo! all this mine eye hath seen; Mine ear hath heard and understood it.

noyes@Job:13:2 @ What ye know, I know also; I am not inferior to you.

noyes@Job:13:5 @ O that ye would altogether hold your peace! This, truly, would be wisdom in you.

noyes@Job:13:6 @ Hear, I pray you, my arguments; Attend to the pleadings of my lips!

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

noyes@Job:13:18 @ Behold, I have now set in order my cause; I know that I am innocent.

noyes@Job:13:20 @ Only do not unto me two things, Then will I not hide myself from thy presence;

noyes@Job:13:23 @ How many are my iniquities and sins? Make me to know my faults and transgressions.

noyes@Job:13:24 @ Wherefore dost thou hide thy face, And account me as thine enemy?

noyes@Job:13:25 @ Wilt thou put in fear the driven leaf? Wilt thou pursue the dry stubble?

noyes@Job:13:26 @ For thou writest bitter things against me, And makest me inherit the sins of my youth.

noyes@Job:13:27 @ Yea, thou puttest my feet in the stocks, And waterest all my paths; Thou hemmest in the soles of my feet.

noyes@Job:13:28 @ And I, like an abandoned thing, shall waste away; Like a garment which is moth–eaten.

noyes@Job:14:2 @ He cometh forth as a flower, and is cut down; He fleeth also as a shadow, and continueth not.

noyes@Job:14:3 @ And dost thou fix thine eyes upon such a one? And dost thou bring me into judgment with thee?

noyes@Job:14:4 @ Who can produce a clean thing from an unclean? Not one.

noyes@Job:14:5 @ Seeing that his days are determined, And the number of his months, with thee, And that thou hast appointed him bounds which he cannot pass,

noyes@Job:14:6 @ O turn thine eyes from him, and let him rest, That he may enjoy, as a hireling, his day!

noyes@Job:14:7 @ For there is hope for a tree, If it be cut down, that it will sprout again, And that its tender branches will not fail;

noyes@Job:14:8 @ Though its root may have grown old in the earth, And though its trunk be dead upon the ground,

noyes@Job:14:13 @ O that thou wouldst hide me in the under–world! That thou wouldst conceal me till thy wrath be past! That thou wouldst appoint me a time, and then remember me!

noyes@Job:14:14 @ If a man die, can he live again? All the days of my war–service would I wait, Till my change should come.

noyes@Job:14:16 @ But now thou numberest my steps; Thou watchest over my sins.

noyes@Job:14:17 @ My transgression is sealed up in a bag; Yea, thou addest unto my iniquity.

noyes@Job:14:18 @ As the mountain falling cometh to nought, And the rock is removed from its place;

noyes@Job:14:20 @ Thou prevailest against him continually, and he perisheth; Thou changest his countenance, and sendest him away.

noyes@Job:14:22 @ But his flesh shall have pain for itself alone; For itself alone shall his soul mourn.

noyes@Job:15:2 @ Should a wise man answer with arguments of wind, Or fill his bosom with the east wind?

noyes@Job:15:4 @ Behold, thou makest the fear of God a vain thing, And discouragest prayer before him.

noyes@Job:15:5 @ Yea, thy own mouth proclaimeth thy iniquity, Though thou choosest the tongue of the crafty.

noyes@Job:15:6 @ Thy own mouth condemneth thee, and not I; Thy own lips testify against thee.

noyes@Job:15:8 @ Hast thou listened in the council of God, And drawn all wisdom to thyself?

noyes@Job:15:11 @ Dost thou despise the consolations of God, And words so full of kindness to thee?

noyes@Job:15:12 @ Why hath thy passion taken possession of thee? And why this winking of thine eyes?

noyes@Job:15:13 @ For against God hast thou turned thy spirit, And uttered such words from thy mouth.

noyes@Job:15:14 @ What is man, that he should be pure, And he that is born of woman, that he should be innocent?

noyes@Job:15:15 @ Behold, He putteth no trust in his ministering spirits, And the heavens are not pure in his sight;

noyes@Job:15:16 @ Much less, abominable and polluted man, Who drinketh iniquity as water.

noyes@Job:15:20 @ "All his days the wicked man is in pain; Yea, all the years, that are laid up for the oppressor.

noyes@Job:15:21 @ A fearful sound is in his ears; In peace the destroyer cometh upon him.

noyes@Job:15:23 @ He wandereth about, seeking bread; He knoweth that a day of darkness is at hand.

noyes@Job:15:24 @ Distress and anguish fill him with dread; They prevail against him like a king ready for the battle.

noyes@Job:15:25 @ Because he stretched forth his hand against God, And bade defiance to the Almighty,

noyes@Job:15:26 @ And ran against him with outstretched neck, With the thick bosses of his bucklers;

noyes@Job:15:27 @ Because he covered his face with fatness, And gathered fat upon his loins,

noyes@Job:15:28 @ And dwelt in desolated cities, In houses which no man inhabiteth, That are ready to become heaps.

noyes@Job:15:31 @ "Let not man trust in vanity! he will be deceived; For vanity shall be his recompense.

noyes@Job:15:33 @ He shall shake off his unripe fruit like the vine, And shed his blossoms like the olive–tree.

noyes@Job:15:35 @ They conceive mischief, and bring forth misery, And their breast deviseth deceit."

noyes@Job:16:2 @ Of such things as these I have heard enough! Miserable comforters are ye all!

noyes@Job:16:3 @ Will there ever be an end to words of wind? What stirreth thee up, that thou answerest?

noyes@Job:16:4 @ I also might speak like you, If ye were now in my place; I might string together words against you, And shake my head at you.

noyes@Job:16:5 @ I would strengthen you with my mouth, And the consolation of my lips should sustain you.

noyes@Job:16:8 @ Thou hast seized hold of me, and this is a witness against me; My leanness riseth up and testifieth against me to my face.

noyes@Job:16:10 @ They gape for me with their mouths; In scorn they smite me on the cheek; With one consent they assemble against me.

noyes@Job:16:11 @ God hath given me a prey to the unrighteous, And delivered me into the hands of the wicked.

noyes@Job:16:12 @ I was at ease, but he hath crushed me; He hath seized me by the neck, and dashed me in pieces; He hath set me up for his mark.

noyes@Job:16:13 @ His archers encompass me around; He pierceth my reins, and doth not spare; He poureth out my gall upon the ground.

noyes@Job:16:15 @ I have sewed sackcloth upon my skin, And thrust my horn into the dust.

noyes@Job:16:16 @ My face is red with weeping, And upon my eyelids is deathlike darkness.

noyes@Job:16:17 @ Yet is there no injustice in my bands. And my prayer hath been pure.

noyes@Job:16:18 @ O earth! cover not thou my blood, And let there be no hiding–place for my cry!

noyes@Job:16:19 @ Yet even now, behold, my witness is in heaven, And he who knoweth me is on high.

noyes@Job:16:20 @ My friends have me in derision, But my eye poureth out tears unto God.

noyes@Job:17:4 @ Behold, thou hast blinded their understanding; Therefore thou wilt not suffer them to prevail.

noyes@Job:17:8 @ Upright men will be astonished at this, And the innocent will rouse themselves against the wicked.

noyes@Job:17:10 @ But as for you all, return, I pray! I find not yet among you one wise man.

noyes@Job:17:13 @ Yea, I look to the grave as my home; I have made my bed in darkness.

noyes@Job:17:16 @ It must go down to the bars of the under–world, As soon as there is rest for me in the dust.

noyes@Job:18:3 @ Why are we accounted as brutes, And reputed vile in your sight?

noyes@Job:18:4 @ Thou that tearest thyself in thine anger! Must the earth be deserted for thee, And the rock removed from its place?

noyes@Job:18:5 @ Behold, the light of the wicked shall be put out, And the flame of his fire shall not shine.

noyes@Job:18:6 @ Light shall become darkness in his tent, And his lamp over him shall go out.

noyes@Job:18:8 @ He is brought into the net by his own feet, And he walketh upon snares.

noyes@Job:18:10 @ A net is secretly laid for him on the ground, And a trap for him in the pathway.

noyes@Job:18:14 @ He is torn from his tent, which was his confidence, And is borne away to the king of terrors.

noyes@Job:18:15 @ They who are none of his shall dwell in his tent; Brimstone shall be scattered upon his habitation.

noyes@Job:18:17 @ His memory perisheth from the earth, And no name hath he in the land.

noyes@Job:18:18 @ He shall be thrust from light into darkness, And driven out of the world.

noyes@Job:18:19 @ He hath no son, nor kinsman among his people, Nor any survivor in his dwelling–place.

noyes@Job:18:21 @ Yea, such is the dwelling of the unrighteous man; Such is the place of him who knoweth not God!

noyes@Job:19:2 @ How long will ye vex my soul, And break me in pieces with words?

noyes@Job:19:4 @ And be it, indeed, that I have erred, My error abideth with myself.

noyes@Job:19:5 @ Since, indeed, ye magnify yourselves against me, And plead against me my reproach,

noyes@Job:19:7 @ Behold, I complain of wrong, but receive no answer; I cry aloud, but obtain no justice.

noyes@Job:19:8 @ He hath fenced up my way, so that I cannot pass, And hath set darkness in my paths.

noyes@Job:19:11 @ He kindleth his anger against me, And counteth me as his enemy.

noyes@Job:19:12 @ His troops advance together against me; They throw up for themselves a way to me, And encamp around my dwelling.

noyes@Job:19:13 @ My brethren he hath put far from me, And my acquaintance are wholly estranged from me.

noyes@Job:19:14 @ My kinsfolk have forsaken me, And my bosom friends have forgotten me.

noyes@Job:19:15 @ The foreigners of my house, yea, my own maid–servants, regard me as a stranger; I am an alien in their eyes.

noyes@Job:19:18 @ Even young children despise me; When I rise up, they speak against me.

noyes@Job:19:19 @ All my bosom friends abhor me, And they whom I loved are turned against me.

noyes@Job:19:20 @ My bones cleave to my flesh and my skin, And I have scarcely escaped with the skin of my teeth.

noyes@Job:19:23 @ O that my words were now written! O that they were marked down in a scroll!

noyes@Job:19:25 @ Yet I know that my Vindicator liveth, And will hereafter stand up on the earth;

noyes@Job:19:26 @ And though with my skin this body be wasted away, Yet without my flesh shall I see God.

noyes@Job:19:27 @ Yea, I shall see him my friend; My eyes shall behold him, and not another: For this, my soul panteth within me.

noyes@Job:19:28 @ Since ye say, "How may we persecute him, And find grounds of accusation against him?"

noyes@Job:20:2 @ For this do my thoughts lead me to reply, And for this is my ardor within me.

noyes@Job:20:3 @ I have heard my shameful rebuke; And the spirit, from my understanding, answereth for me.

noyes@Job:20:5 @ The triumphing of the wicked hath been short, And the joy of the impious but for a moment?

noyes@Job:20:7 @ Yet shall he perish for ever, and be mingled with dust; They who saw him shall say, Where is he?

noyes@Job:20:9 @ The eye also which saw him shall see him no more, And his dwelling–place shall never more behold him.

noyes@Job:20:11 @ His bones are full of his youth, But they shall lie down with him in the dust.

noyes@Job:20:12 @ Though wickedness be sweet in his mouth, Though he hide it under his tongue,

noyes@Job:20:13 @ Though he cherish it, and will not part with it, And keep it fast in his mouth,

noyes@Job:20:14 @ Yet his meat shall be changed within him, And become to him the poison of asps.

noyes@Job:20:15 @ He hath glutted himself with riches, And he shall throw them up again; Yea, God shall cast them out of his body.

noyes@Job:20:17 @ He shall never see the flowing streams, And the rivers of honey and milk.

noyes@Job:20:18 @ The fruits of his toil he shall give back, and shall not enjoy them: It is substance to be restored, and he shall not rejoice therein.

noyes@Job:20:20 @ Because he knew no rest in his bosom, He shall not save that in which he delighteth.

noyes@Job:20:21 @ Because nothing escaped his greediness, His prosperity shall not endure.

noyes@Job:20:22 @ In the fulness of his abundance he shall be brought low; Every hand of the wretched shall come upon him.

noyes@Job:20:23 @ He shall, indeed, have wherewith to fill himself: God shall send upon him the fury of his anger, And rain it down upon him for his food.

noyes@Job:20:25 @ He draweth the arrow, and it cometh forth from his body; Yea, the glittering steel cometh out of his gall. Terrors are upon him;

noyes@Job:20:26 @ Calamity of every kind is treasured up for him. A fire not blown shall consume him; It shall consume whatever is left in his tent.

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

noyes@Job:20:28 @ The substance of his house shall disappear; It shall flow away in the day of His wrath.

noyes@Job:20:29 @ Such is the portion of the wicked man from God, And the inheritance appointed for him by the Almighty.

noyes@Job:21:4 @ Is my complaint concerning man? Why then should I not be angry?

noyes@Job:21:6 @ When I think of it, I am confounded; Trembling taketh hold of my flesh.

noyes@Job:21:7 @ Why is it that the wicked live, Grow old, yea, become mighty in substance?

noyes@Job:21:8 @ Their children are established in their sight with them, And their offspring before their eyes.

noyes@Job:21:9 @ Their houses are in peace, without fear, And the rod of God cometh not upon them.

noyes@Job:21:12 @ They sing to the timbrel and harp, And rejoice at the sound of the pipe.

noyes@Job:21:13 @ They spend their days in prosperity, And in a moment go down to the under–world.

noyes@Job:21:16 @ "Lo! their prosperity is not secure in their hands! Far from me be the conduct of the wicked!"

noyes@Job:21:17 @ How often is it, that the lamp of the wicked is put out? And that destruction cometh upon them, And that He dispenseth to them tribulations in his anger?

noyes@Job:21:18 @ How often are they as stubble before the wind, Or as chaff, which the whirlwind carrieth away?

noyes@Job:21:19 @ "But" "God layeth up his iniquity for his children." Let him requite the offender, and let him feel it!

noyes@Job:21:20 @ Let his own eyes see his destruction, And let him drink of the wrath of the Almighty!

noyes@Job:21:23 @ One dieth in the fulness of his prosperity, Being wholly at ease and quiet;

noyes@Job:21:25 @ Another dieth in bitterness of soul, And hath not tasted pleasure.

noyes@Job:21:26 @ Alike they lie down in the dust, And the worms cover them.

noyes@Job:21:28 @ For ye say, "Where is the house of the oppressor, And where the dwelling–places of the wicked?"

noyes@Job:21:29 @ Have ye never inquired of travellers, And do ye not know their tokens,

noyes@Job:21:30 @ That the wicked is spared in the day of destruction, And that he is borne to his grave in the day of wrath?

noyes@Job:21:34 @ Why then do ye offer your vain consolations? Your answers continue false.

noyes@Job:22:3 @ Is it a pleasure to the Almighty, that thou art righteous; Or a gain to him, that thou walkest uprightly?

noyes@Job:22:4 @ Will he contend with thee because he feareth thee? Will he enter with thee into judgment?

noyes@Job:22:5 @ Hath not thy wickedness been great? Have not thine iniquities been numberless?

noyes@Job:22:6 @ For thou hast taken a pledge from thy brother unjustly, And stripped the poor of their clothing.

noyes@Job:22:7 @ Thou hast given the weary no water to drink, And withholden bread from the hungry.

noyes@Job:22:8 @ But the man of power, his was the land, And the honorable man dwelt in it.

noyes@Job:22:12 @ Is not God in the height of heaven? And behold the stars, how high they are!

noyes@Job:22:13 @ Hence thou sayest, "What doth God know? Can he govern behind the thick darkness?

noyes@Job:22:18 @ And yet he filled their houses with good things!––Far from me be the counsel of the wicked!

noyes@Job:22:19 @ The righteous see their fate, and rejoice; And the innocent hold them in derision.

noyes@Job:22:21 @ Acquaint now thyself with him, and be at peace: Thus shall prosperity return to thee.

noyes@Job:22:22 @ Receive, I pray thee, instruction from his mouth, And lay up his words in thy heart.

noyes@Job:22:23 @ If thou return to the Almighty, thou shalt be built up; If thou put away iniquity from thy tent.

noyes@Job:22:26 @ For then shalt thou have delight in the Almighty, And shalt lift up thy face unto God.

noyes@Job:22:28 @ The purpose which thou formest shall prosper with thee, And light shall shine upon thy ways.

noyes@Job:22:29 @ When men are cast down, thou shalt say, "There lifting up!" And the humble person he will save.

noyes@Job:22:30 @ He will deliver even him that is not innocent. The purity of thy hands shall save him.

noyes@Job:23:2 @ Still is my complaint bitter; But my wound is deeper than my groaning.

noyes@Job:23:3 @ O that I knew where I might find him! That I might go before his throne!

noyes@Job:23:10 @ But he knoweth the way which is in my heart; When he trieth me, I shall come forth as gold.

noyes@Job:23:11 @ My feet have trodden in his steps; His way I have kept, and have not turned aside from it.

noyes@Job:23:13 @ But he is of one mind, and who can turn him? And what he desireth, that he doeth.

noyes@Job:23:14 @ He performeth that which is appointed for me; And many such things are in his mind!

noyes@Job:23:15 @ Therefore I am in terror on account of him; When I consider, I am afraid of him.

noyes@Job:23:16 @ For God maketh my heart faint; Yea, the Almighty terrifieth me;

noyes@Job:23:17 @ Because I was not taken away before darkness came, And he hath not hidden darkness from mine eyes.

noyes@Job:24:6 @ In the fields they reap the harvest, And gather the vintage of the oppressor.

noyes@Job:24:7 @ They lodge naked, without clothing, And without covering from the cold.

noyes@Job:24:8 @ They are drenched with the mountain showers, And embrace the rock for want of shelter.

noyes@Job:24:10 @ They go naked, without clothing, And carry the sheaf hungry.

noyes@Job:24:11 @ They make oil within their walls, And tread the wine–vat, yet suffer thirst.

noyes@Job:24:12 @ From anguish the dying groan, And the wounded cry aloud; And God regardeth not their prayer!

noyes@Job:24:13 @ Others hate the light; They know not its ways, And abide not in its paths.

noyes@Job:24:14 @ With the light ariseth the murderer; He killeth the poor and needy; In the night he is as a thief.

noyes@Job:24:16 @ In the dark they break into houses; In the daytime they shut themselves up; They are strangers to the light.

noyes@Job:24:17 @ The morning is to them the very shadow of death; They are familiar with the terrors of the shadow of death.

noyes@Job:24:18 @ Light are they on the face of the waters; They have an accursed portion in the earth; They come not near the vineyards.

noyes@Job:24:20 @ His own mother forgetteth him; The worm feedeth sweetly on him; He is no more remembered, And iniquity is broken like a tree.

noyes@Job:24:24 @ They are exalted; ––in a little while they are gone! They are brought low, and die, like all others; And like the topmost ears of corn are they cut off.

noyes@Job:25:2 @ Dominion and fear are with Him; He maintaineth peace in his high places.

noyes@Job:25:3 @ Is there any numbering of his hosts? And upon whom doth not his light arise?

noyes@Job:25:5 @ Behold, even the moon, it shineth not; And the stars are not pure in his sight,

noyes@Job:26:3 @ How hast thou counselled the ignorant, And revealed wisdom in fulness!

noyes@Job:26:5 @ Before Him the shades tremble Beneath the waters and their inhabitants.

noyes@Job:26:6 @ The under–world is naked before him, And destruction is without covering.

noyes@Job:26:7 @ He stretcheth out the north over empty space, And hangeth the earth upon nothing.

noyes@Job:26:8 @ He bindeth up the waters in his thick clouds, And the cloud is not rent under them.

noyes@Job:26:10 @ He hath drawn a circular bound upon the waters, To the confines of light and darkness.

noyes@Job:26:13 @ By his spirit he hath garnished the heavens; His hand hath formed the fleeing Serpent.

noyes@Job:26:14 @ Lo! these are but the borders of his works; How faint the whisper we have heard of him! But the thunder of his power who can understand?

noyes@Job:27:1 @ Moreover Job continued his discourse, and said:

noyes@Job:27:3 @ As long as my breath is in me, And the spirit of God is in my nostrils,

noyes@Job:27:5 @ God forbid that I should acknowledge you to be just: To my last breath will I assert my integrity.

noyes@Job:27:6 @ I will hold fast my innocence, and not let it go; My heart reproacheth me for no part of my life.

noyes@Job:27:7 @ May mine enemy be as the wicked, And he that riseth up against me as the unrighteous!

noyes@Job:27:10 @ Can he delight himself in the Almighty, And call at all times upon God?

noyes@Job:27:11 @ I will teach you concerning the hand of God; That which is with the Almighty I will not conceal.

noyes@Job:27:12 @ Behold, ye yourselves have all seen it; Why then do ye cherish such vain thoughts?

noyes@Job:27:13 @ This is the portion of the wicked man from God,––The inheritance which oppressors receive from the Almighty.

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

noyes@Job:27:17 @ He may procure, but the righteous shall wear it, And the innocent shall share the silver.

noyes@Job:27:19 @ The rich man lieth down, and is not buried; In the twinkling of an eye he is no more.

noyes@Job:27:20 @ Terrors pursue him like a flood; A tempest stealeth him away in the night.

noyes@Job:27:21 @ The east wind carrieth him away, and he perisheth; Yea, it sweepeth him away from his place.

noyes@Job:27:22 @ God sendeth his arrows at him, and doth not spare; He would fain escape from His hand.

noyes@Job:28:1 @ Truly there is a vein for silver, And a place for gold, which men refine.

noyes@Job:28:2 @ Iron is obtained from earth, And stone is melted into copper.

noyes@Job:28:4 @ From the place where they dwell they open a shaft; Forgotten by the feet, They hang down, they swing away from men.

noyes@Job:28:9 @ Man layeth his hand upon the rock; He upturneth mountains from their roots;

noyes@Job:28:10 @ He cleaveth out streams in the rocks, And his eye seeth every precious thing;

noyes@Job:28:11 @ He bindeth up the streams, that they trickle not, And bringeth hidden things to light.

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

noyes@Job:28:13 @ Man knoweth not the price thereof, Nor can it be found in the land of the living.

noyes@Job:28:14 @ The deep saith, It is not in me; And the sea saith, It is not with me.

noyes@Job:28:17 @ Gold and crystal are not to be compared with it; Nor can it be purchased with jewels of fine gold.

noyes@Job:28:20 @ Whence then cometh wisdom? And where is the place of understanding?

noyes@Job:28:21 @ Since it is hidden from the eyes of all living, And kept close from the fowls of the air.

noyes@Job:28:23 @ God knoweth the way to it; He knoweth its dwelling–place.

noyes@Job:28:24 @ For he seeth to the ends of the earth, And surveyeth all things under the whole heaven.

noyes@Job:28:25 @ When he gave the winds their weight, And meted out the waters by measure;

noyes@Job:28:26 @ When he prescribed a law to the rain, And a path to the thunder–flash,––

noyes@Job:28:28 @ But he said unto man, Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom, And to depart from evil is understanding.

noyes@Job:29:1 @ Moreover Job continued his discourse, and said:

noyes@Job:29:2 @ O that I were as in months past, In the days when God was my guardian;

noyes@Job:29:3 @ When his lamp shined over my head, And when by his light I walked through darkness!

noyes@Job:29:4 @ As I was in the autumn of my days, When the friendship of God was over my tent;

noyes@Job:29:6 @ When I bathed my steps in milk, And the rock poured me out rivers of oil!

noyes@Job:29:7 @ When I went forth to the gate by the city, And took my seat in the market–place,

noyes@Job:29:9 @ The princes refrained from speaking, And laid their hand upon their mouth.

noyes@Job:29:13 @ The blessing of him that was ready to perish came upon me, And I caused the heart of the widow to sing for joy.

noyes@Job:29:15 @ I was eyes to the blind, And feet was I to the lame;

noyes@Job:29:18 @ Then said I, "I shall die in my nest; I shall multiply my days as the sand.

noyes@Job:29:20 @ My glory is fresh with me, And my bow gathereth strength in my hand."

noyes@Job:29:23 @ Yea, they waited for me as for the rain; They opened their mouths wide as for the latter rain.

noyes@Job:29:25 @ When I came among them, I sat as chief; I dwelt as a king in the midst of an army, As a comforter among mourners.

noyes@Job:30:1 @ But now they that are younger than I hold me in derision, Whose fathers I would have disdained to set with the dogs of my flock.

noyes@Job:30:4 @ They gather purslain among the bushes, And the root of the broom is their bread.

noyes@Job:30:6 @ They dwell in gloomy valleys, In caves of the earth and in rocks.

noyes@Job:30:11 @ Yea, they let loose the reins, and humble me; They cast off the bridle before me.

noyes@Job:30:12 @ On my right hand riseth up the brood; They thrust away my feet; They cast up against me their destructive ways.

noyes@Job:30:14 @ They come upon me as through a wide breach; Through the ruins they rush in upon me.

noyes@Job:30:15 @ Terrors are turned against me; They pursue my prosperity like the wind, And my welfare passeth away like a cloud.

noyes@Job:30:18 @ Through the violence of my disease is my garment changed; It bindeth me about like the collar of my tunic.

noyes@Job:30:19 @ He hath cast me into the mire, And I am become like dust and ashes.

noyes@Job:30:21 @ Thou art become cruel to me; With thy strong hand dost thou lie in wait for me.

noyes@Job:30:22 @ Thou liftest me up, and causest me to ride upon the wind; Thou meltest me away in the storm.

noyes@Job:30:23 @ I know that thou wilt bring me to death, To the place of assembly for all the living.

noyes@Job:30:24 @ When He stretcheth out his hand, prayer availeth nothing; When He bringeth destruction, vain is the cry for help.

noyes@Job:30:25 @ Did not I weep for him that was in trouble? Was not my soul grieved for the poor?

noyes@Job:30:28 @ I am black, but not by the sun; I stand up, and utter my cries in the congregation.

noyes@Job:30:30 @ My skin is black, and falleth from me, And my bones burn with heat.

noyes@Job:30:31 @ My harp also is turned to mourning, And my pipe to notes of grief.

noyes@Job:31:1 @ I made a covenant with mine eyes; How then could I gaze upon a maid?

noyes@Job:31:2 @ For what is the portion appointed by God from above, And the inheritance allotted by the Almighty from on high?

noyes@Job:31:3 @ Is not destruction for the wicked, And ruin for the workers of iniquity?

noyes@Job:31:6 @ Let him weigh me in an even balance; Yea, let God know my integrity!

noyes@Job:31:7 @ If my steps have turned aside from the way, And my heart gone after mine eyes, Or if any stain hath cleaved to my hand,

noyes@Job:31:10 @ Then let my wife grind for another, And let other men lie with her!

noyes@Job:31:11 @ For this were a heinous crime, Even a transgression to be punished by the judges;

noyes@Job:31:12 @ Yea, it were a fire that would consume to destruction, And root out all my increase.

noyes@Job:31:15 @ Did not He that made me in the womb make him? Did not one fashion us in the womb?

noyes@Job:31:19 @ If I have seen any one perishing for want of clothing, Or any poor man without covering;

noyes@Job:31:20 @ If his loins have not blessed me, And he hath not been warmed with the fleece of my sheep;

noyes@Job:31:21 @ If I have shaken my hand against the fatherless, Because I saw my help in the gate,––

noyes@Job:31:23 @ For destruction from God was a terror to me, And before his majesty I could do nothing.

noyes@Job:31:24 @ If I have made gold my trust, Or said to the fine gold, Thou art my confidence;

noyes@Job:31:26 @ If I have beheld the sun in his splendor, Or the moon advancing in brightness,

noyes@Job:31:30 @ (Nay, I have not suffered my mouth to sin, By asking with curses his life;)

noyes@Job:31:32 @ The stranger did not lodge in the street; I opened my doors to the traveller.

noyes@Job:31:33 @ Have I, after the manner of men, hidden my transgression, Concealing my iniquity in my bosom,

noyes@Job:31:35 @ O that there were one who would hear me! Behold my signature! let the Almighty answer me. And let mine adversary write down his charge!

noyes@Job:31:36 @ Truly I would wear it upon my shoulder; I would bind it upon me as a crown.

noyes@Job:31:37 @ I would disclose to him all my steps; I would approach him like a prince.

noyes@Job:31:38 @ If my land cry out against me, And its furrows bewail together;

noyes@Job:31:40 @ Let thorns grow up instead of wheat, And noxious weeds instead of barley. The words of Job are ended.

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

noyes@Job:32:2 @ Then was kindled the wrath of Elihu, the son of Barachel, the Buzite, of the family of Ram; against Job was his wrath kindled, because he accounted himself righteous rather than God.

noyes@Job:32:3 @ Against his three friends also was his wrath kindled, because they had not found an answer, and yet had condemned Job.

noyes@Job:32:5 @ But when Elihu saw that there was no answer in the mouth of these three men, his wrath was kindled.

noyes@Job:32:6 @ Then spake Elihu, the son of Barachel, the Buzite, and said: I am young, and ye are very old; Therefore I was afraid, And durst not make known to you my opinion.

noyes@Job:32:8 @ But it is the spirit in man, Even the inspiration of the Almighty, that giveth him understanding.

noyes@Job:32:10 @ Therefore, I pray, listen to me: I also will declare my opinion.

noyes@Job:32:14 @ He hath not directed his discourse against me, And with speeches like yours will I not answer him.

noyes@Job:32:15 @ They were confounded! they answered no more! They could say nothing!

noyes@Job:32:17 @ Therefore will I answer, on my part; I also will show my opinion.

noyes@Job:32:18 @ For I am full of matter; The spirit within me constraineth me.

noyes@Job:32:19 @ Behold, my bosom is as wine that hath no vent; Like bottles of new wine, which are bursting.

noyes@Job:33:2 @ Behold, I am opening my mouth; My tongue is now speaking in my palate.

noyes@Job:33:3 @ My words shall be in the uprightness of my heart; My lips shall utter knowledge purely.

noyes@Job:33:5 @ If thou art able, answer me; Set thyself in array against me; stand up!

noyes@Job:33:8 @ Surely thou hast said in my hearing, I have heard the sound of thy words:

noyes@Job:33:9 @ "I am pure, and without transgression; I am clean, and there is no iniquity in me.

noyes@Job:33:10 @ Behold, He seeketh causes of hostility against me; He regardeth me as his enemy.

noyes@Job:33:11 @ He putteth my feet in the stocks; He watcheth all my paths."

noyes@Job:33:12 @ Behold, in this thou art not right; I will answer thee; For God is greater than man.

noyes@Job:33:13 @ Why dost thou contend with Him? For he giveth no account of any of his doings.

noyes@Job:33:15 @ In a dream, in a vision of the night, When deep sleep falleth upon men, In slumber upon the bed;

noyes@Job:33:18 @ Thus he saveth him from the pit, Yea, his life from perishing by the sword.

noyes@Job:33:19 @ He is chastened also with pain upon his bed, And with a continual agitation of his bones,

noyes@Job:33:21 @ His flesh is consumed, that it cannot be seen, And his bones, that were invisible, are naked;

noyes@Job:33:23 @ But if there be with him a messenger, An interpreter, one of a thousand, Who may show unto man his duty,

noyes@Job:33:24 @ Then will God be gracious to him, and say, "Save him from going down to the pit: I have found a ransom."

noyes@Job:33:27 @ He shall sing among men, and say, "I sinned; I acted perversely; Yet hath he not requited me for it:

noyes@Job:33:28 @ He hath delivered me from going down to the pit, And my life beholdeth the light."

noyes@Job:33:29 @ Lo! all these things doeth God Time after time with man,

noyes@Job:33:30 @ That he may bring him back from the pit, That he may enjoy the light of the living.

noyes@Job:33:32 @ Yet if thou hast any thing to say, answer me! Speak! for I desire to pronounce thee innocent.

noyes@Job:34:4 @ Let us examine for ourselves what is right; Let us know among ourselves what is true.

noyes@Job:34:6 @ Though I am innocent, I am made a liar; My wound is incurable, though I am free from transgression."

noyes@Job:34:7 @ Where is the man like Job, Who drinketh impiety like water;

noyes@Job:34:8 @ Who goeth in company with evil–doers, And walketh with wicked men?

noyes@Job:34:9 @ For he hath said, "A man hath no advantage, When he delighteth himself in God."

noyes@Job:34:10 @ Wherefore hearken to me, ye men of understanding! Far be iniquity from God; Yea, far be injustice from the Almighty!

noyes@Job:34:11 @ For what a man hath done he will requite him, And render to every one according to his deeds.

noyes@Job:34:12 @ Surely God will not do iniquity, Nor will the Almighty pervert justice.

noyes@Job:34:14 @ Should he set his heart against man, Should he take back his spirit and his breath,

noyes@Job:34:16 @ If thou hast understanding, hear this! Give ear to the voice of my words!

noyes@Job:34:18 @ Is it fit to say to a king, Thou art wicked; Or to princes, Ye are unrighteous?

noyes@Job:34:19 @ How much less to him that is not partial to princes, Nor regardeth the rich more than the poor? For they are all the work of his hands.

noyes@Job:34:20 @ In a moment they die; yea, at midnight Do the people stagger and pass away, And the mighty are destroyed without hand.

noyes@Job:34:23 @ He needeth not attend long to a man, That he may go into judgment before God;

noyes@Job:34:24 @ He dasheth in pieces the mighty without inquiry, And setteth up others in their stead.

noyes@Job:34:25 @ Therefore he knoweth their works, And in a night he overthroweth them, so that they are destroyed.

noyes@Job:34:26 @ On account of their wickedness he smiteth them, In the presence of many beholders;

noyes@Job:34:30 @ So is it with nations and individuals alike! That the wicked may no more rule, And may not be snares to the people.

noyes@Job:34:32 @ What I see not, teach thou me! If I have done iniquity, I will do it no more."

noyes@Job:34:33 @ Shall he recompense according to thy mind, Because thou refusest, or because thou choosest, and not he? Speak, if thou hast knowledge!

noyes@Job:34:34 @ Men of understanding, Wise men, who hear me, will say,

noyes@Job:34:36 @ I desire that Job may be tried to the last, For answering like wicked men.

noyes@Job:34:37 @ For he addeth impiety to his sin; He clappeth his hands among us, And multiplieth words against God.

noyes@Job:35:2 @ Dost thou then think this to be right? Thou hast said, "I am more righteous than God."

noyes@Job:35:3 @ For thou askest, "What advantage have I? What have I gained, more than if I had sinned?"

noyes@Job:35:6 @ If thou sinnest, what doest thou against Him? If thy transgressions be multiplied, what doest thou to him?

noyes@Job:35:8 @ Thy wickedness injureth only a man like thyself, And thy righteousness profiteth only a son of man.

noyes@Job:35:10 @ But none saith, "Where is God, my Maker, Who giveth songs in the night;

noyes@Job:35:13 @ For God will not hear the vain supplication, Nor will the Almighty regard it;

noyes@Job:35:15 @ But now, because he hath not visited in his anger, Nor taken strict note of transgression,

noyes@Job:36:2 @ Bear with me a little while, that I may show thee! For I have yet words in behalf of God.

noyes@Job:36:3 @ I will bring my knowledge from afar, And assert the justice of my Maker.

noyes@Job:36:5 @ Behold, God is great, but despiseth not any; Great is he in strength of understanding.

noyes@Job:36:7 @ He withdraweth not his eyes from the righteous; But establisheth them for ever with kings on the throne, That they may be exalted.

noyes@Job:36:8 @ And if they be bound in fetters, And holden in the cords of affliction,

noyes@Job:36:10 @ He also openeth their ears to admonition, And commandeth them to return from iniquity.

noyes@Job:36:11 @ If they obey and serve him, They spend their days in prosperity, And their years in pleasures.

noyes@Job:36:12 @ But if they obey not, they perish by the sword; They die in their own folly.

noyes@Job:36:13 @ The corrupt in heart treasure up wrath; They cry not to God, when he bindeth them.

noyes@Job:36:14 @ They die in their youth; They close their lives with the unclean.

noyes@Job:36:15 @ But he delivereth the poor in their distress; He openeth their ears in affliction.

noyes@Job:36:16 @ He will bring thee also from the jaws of distress To a broad place, where is no straitness; And the provision of thy table shall be full of fatness.

noyes@Job:36:21 @ Take heed, turn not thine eyes to iniquity! For this hast thou chosen rather than affliction.

noyes@Job:36:22 @ Behold, God is exalted in his power: Who is a teacher like him?

noyes@Job:36:25 @ All mankind gaze upon it; Mortals behold it from afar.

noyes@Job:36:27 @ Lo! he draweth up the drops of water, Which distil rain from his vapor;

noyes@Job:36:28 @ The clouds pour it down, And drop it upon man in abundance.

noyes@Job:36:29 @ Who can understand the spreading of his clouds, And the rattling of his pavilion?

noyes@Job:36:31 @ By these he punisheth nations, And by these he giveth food in abundance.

noyes@Job:36:32 @ His hands he covereth with lightning; He giveth it commandment against an enemy.

noyes@Job:37:3 @ He directeth it under the whole heaven, And his lightning to the ends of the earth.

noyes@Job:37:4 @ After it the thunder roareth; He thundereth with his voice of majesty, And restraineth it not, when his voice is heard.

noyes@Job:37:5 @ God thundereth with his voice marvellously; Great things doeth he, which we cannot comprehend.

noyes@Job:37:8 @ Then the beasts go into dens, And abide in their caverns.

noyes@Job:37:9 @ Out of the south cometh the whirlwind, And cold out of the north.

noyes@Job:37:11 @ Yea, with moisture he burdeneth the clouds; He spreadeth abroad his lightning–clouds.

noyes@Job:37:15 @ Dost thou know when God gave commandment to them, And caused the lightning of his cloud to flash?

noyes@Job:37:16 @ Dost thou understand the balancing of the clouds, The wondrous works of Him that is perfect in knowledge?

noyes@Job:37:17 @ How thy garments become warm, When he maketh the earth still by the south wind?

noyes@Job:37:19 @ Teach us what we shall say to him! For we cannot set in order our words by reason of darkness.

noyes@Job:37:21 @ For now men do not look upon the light, When it is bright in the skies, When the wind hath passed over them, and made them clear.

noyes@Job:37:23 @ The Almighty, we cannot find him out; Great is he in power and justice, Abundant in righteousness; he doth not oppress.

noyes@Job:37:24 @ Therefore let men fear him! Upon none of the wise in heart will he look.

noyes@Job:38:1 @ Then spake Jehovah to Job out of the whirlwind, and said:

noyes@Ecclesiastes:2:6 @ I made me pools of water, with which to water the grove shooting up trees.

noyes@Ecclesiastes:2:7 @ I got me men–servants and maid–servants, and had servants born in my house. I had also great possessions of herds and flocks, more than all who were in Jerusalem before me.

noyes@Ecclesiastes:2:8 @ I heaped me up also silver and gold, and the wealth of kings and of provinces. I got me men–singers and women–singers, and the delight of the sons of men, a chosen woman and chosen women.

noyes@Ecclesiastes:3:10 @ I have seen the business which God hath given to the sons of men to exercise themselves therewith.

noyes@Ecclesiastes:3:11 @ God maketh every thing good in its time; but he hath put the world into the heart of man, so that he understandeth not the work which God doeth, from the beginning to the end.

noyes@Ecclesiastes:3:12 @ I know that there is nothing better for a man than that he should rejoice and enjoy good his life long.

noyes@Ecclesiastes:3:13 @ But when a man eateth and drinketh, and enjoyeth good through all his labor, this is the gift of God.
