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

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:1:12 @ 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:1:15 @ 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:1:17 @ 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:1:19 @ 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:1:22 @ In all this Job did not sin nor charge God with wrong.

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:2:6 @ 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:2:11 @ 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:3:3 @ "May the day perish on which I was born, And the night in which it was said, "A male child is conceived.'

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

nkjv@Job:3:6 @ As for that night, may darkness seize it; May it not rejoice among the days of the year, May it not come into the number of the months.

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:3:10 @ Because it did not shut up the doors of my mother's womb, Nor hide sorrow from my eyes.

nkjv@Job:3:12 @ Why did the knees receive me? Or why the breasts, that I should nurse?

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:3:15 @ Or with princes who had gold, Who filled their houses with silver;

nkjv@Job:3:16 @ Or why was I not hidden like a stillborn child, Like infants who never saw light?

nkjv@Job:3:18 @ There the prisoners rest together; They do not hear the voice of the oppressor.

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

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:3:26 @ I am not at ease, nor am I quiet; I have no rest, for trouble comes."

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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:5:6 @ For affliction does not come from the dust, Nor does trouble spring from the ground;

nkjv@Job:5:7 @ Yet man is born to trouble, As the sparks fly upward.

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

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:5:17 @ "Behold, happy is the man whom God corrects; Therefore do not despise the chastening of the Almighty.

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:5:23 @ 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:5:27 @ Behold, this we have searched out; It is true. Hear it, and know for yourself."

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

nkjv@Job:6:4 @ For the arrows of the Almighty are within me; My spirit drinks in their poison; The terrors of God are arrayed against me.

nkjv@Job:6:5 @ Does the wild donkey bray when it has grass, Or does the ox low over its fodder?

nkjv@Job:6:6 @ Can flavorless food be eaten without salt? Or is there any taste in the white of an egg?

nkjv@Job:6:8 @ "Oh, that I might have my request, That God would grant me the thing that I long for!

nkjv@Job:6:10 @ Then I would still have comfort; Though in anguish I would exult, He will not spare; For I have not concealed the words of the Holy One.

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

nkjv@Job:6:14 @ "To him who is afflicted, kindness should be shown by his friend, Even though he forsakes the fear of the Almighty.

nkjv@Job:6:19 @ The caravans of Tema look, The travelers of Sheba hope for them.

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

nkjv@Job:6:22 @ Did I ever say, "Bring something to me'? Or, "Offer a bribe for me from your wealth'?

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

nkjv@Job:6:25 @ How forceful are right words! But what does your arguing prove?

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

nkjv@Job:6:28 @ Now therefore, be pleased to look at me; For I would never lie to your face.

nkjv@Job:6:30 @ Is there injustice on my tongue? Cannot my taste discern the unsavory?

nkjv@Job:7:1 @ "Is there not a time of hard service for man on earth? Are not his days also like the days of a hired man?

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:7:4 @ 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:7:8 @ The eye of him who sees me will see me no more; While your eyes are upon me, I shall no longer be.

nkjv@Job:7:10 @ He shall never return to his house, Nor shall his place know him anymore.

nkjv@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.

nkjv@Job:7:12 @ Am I a sea, or a sea serpent, That You set a guard over me?

nkjv@Job:7:13 @ When I say, "My bed will comfort me, My couch will ease my complaint,'

nkjv@Job:7:16 @ I loathe my life; I would not live forever. Let me alone, For my days are but a breath.

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

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

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

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

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

nkjv@Job:8:20 @ Behold, God will not cast away the blameless, Nor will He uphold the evildoers.

nkjv@Job:9:2 @ "Truly I know it is so, But how can a man be righteous before God?

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:9:15 @ For though I were righteous, I could not answer Him; I would beg mercy of my Judge.

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

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

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:9:29 @ If I am condemned, Why then do I labor in vain?

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

nkjv@Job:10:5 @ Are Your days like the days of a mortal man? Are Your years like the days of a mighty man,

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

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

nkjv@Job:10:20 @ Are not my days few? Cease! Leave me alone, that I may take a little comfort,

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

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

nkjv@Job:11:6 @ That He would show you the secrets of wisdom! For they would double your prudence. Know therefore that God exacts from you Less than your iniquity deserves.

nkjv@Job:11:11 @ For He knows deceitful men; He sees wickedness also. Will He not then consider it?

nkjv@Job:11:12 @ For an empty-headed man will be wise, When a wild donkey's colt is born a man.

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

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:12:5 @ A lamp is despised in the thought of one who is at ease; It is made ready for those whose feet slip.

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

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

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

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

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

nkjv@Job:13:8 @ Will you show partiality for Him? Will you contend for God?

nkjv@Job:13:9 @ Will it be well when He searches you out? Or can you mock Him as one mocks a man?

nkjv@Job:13:15 @ Though He slay me, yet will I trust Him. Even so, I will defend my own ways before Him.

nkjv@Job:13:16 @ He also shall be my salvation, For a hypocrite could not come before Him.

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

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:14:7 @ "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:14:9 @ Yet at the scent of water it will bud And bring forth branches like a plant.

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

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

nkjv@Job:14:19 @ 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:15:3 @ Should he reason with unprofitable talk, Or by speeches with which he can do no good?

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:15:7 @ "Are you the first man who was born? Or were you made before the hills?

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

nkjv@Job:15:13 @ That you turn your spirit against God, And let such words go out of your mouth?

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

nkjv@Job:15:20 @ The wicked man writhes with pain all his days, And the number of years is hidden from the oppressor.

nkjv@Job:15:22 @ He does not believe that he will return from darkness, For a sword is waiting for him.

nkjv@Job:15:23 @ He wanders about for bread, saying, "Where is it?' He knows that a day of darkness is ready at his hand.

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

nkjv@Job:15:25 @ For he stretches out his hand against God, And acts defiantly against the Almighty,

nkjv@Job:15:26 @ Running stubbornly against Him With his strong, embossed shield.

nkjv@Job:15:29 @ He will not be rich, Nor will his wealth continue, Nor will his possessions overspread the earth.

nkjv@Job:15:31 @ Let him not trust in futile things, deceiving himself, For futility will be his reward.

nkjv@Job:15:32 @ It will be accomplished before his time, And his branch will not be green.

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

nkjv@Job:15:35 @ They conceive trouble and bring forth futility; Their womb prepares deceit."

nkjv@Job:16:2 @ "I have heard many such things; Miserable comforters are you all!

nkjv@Job:16:3 @ Shall words of wind have an end? Or what provokes you that you answer?

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

nkjv@Job:16:5 @ But I would strengthen you with my mouth, And the comfort of my lips would relieve your grief.

nkjv@Job:16:7 @ But now He has worn me out; You have made desolate all my company.

nkjv@Job:16:12 @ I was at ease, but He has shattered me; He also has taken me by my neck, and shaken me to pieces; He has set me up for His target,

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

nkjv@Job:16:20 @ My friends scorn me; My eyes pour out tears to God.

nkjv@Job:16:21 @ Oh, that one might plead for a man with God, As a man pleads for his neighbor!

nkjv@Job:16:22 @ For when a few years are finished, I shall go the way of no return.

nkjv@Job:18:8 @ For he is cast into a net by his own feet, And he walks into a snare.

nkjv@Job:18:10 @ A noose is hidden for him on the ground, And a trap for him in the road.

nkjv@Proverbs:29:5 @ A man who flatters his neighbor Spreads a net for his feet.

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

nkjv@Proverbs:29:9 @ If a wise man contends with a foolish man, Whether the fool rages or laughs, there is no peace.

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:29:14 @ The king who judges the poor with truth, His throne will be established forever.

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:29:20 @ Do you see a man hasty in his words? There is more hope for a fool than for him.

nkjv@Proverbs:29:23 @ A man's pride will bring him low, But the humble in spirit will retain honor.

nkjv@Proverbs:29:25 @ The fear of man brings a snare, But whoever trusts in the LORD shall be safe.

nkjv@Proverbs:29:26 @ Many seek the ruler's favor, But justice for man comes from the LORD.

nkjv@Proverbs:30:1 @ The words of Agur the son of Jakeh, his utterance. This man declared to Ithiel--to Ithiel and Ucal:

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

nkjv@Proverbs:30:3 @ I neither learned wisdom Nor have knowledge of the Holy One.

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:30:5 @ Every word of God is pure; He is a shield to those who put their trust in Him.

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

nkjv@Proverbs:30:7 @ Two things I request of You (Deprive me not before I die):

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:30:14 @ 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:30:17 @ 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:30:21 @ For three things the earth is perturbed, Yes, for four it cannot bear up:

nkjv@Proverbs:30:22 @ For a servant when he reigns, A fool when he is filled with food,

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:31:1 @ The words of King Lemuel, the utterance which his mother taught him:

nkjv@Proverbs:31:3 @ Do not give your strength to women, Nor your ways to that which destroys kings.

nkjv@Proverbs:31:4 @ It is not for kings, O Lemuel, It is not for kings to drink wine, Nor for princes intoxicating drink;

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

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

nkjv@Proverbs:31:8 @ Open your mouth for the speechless, In the cause of all who are appointed to die.

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

nkjv@Proverbs:31:10 @ Who can find a virtuous wife? For her worth is far above rubies.

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

nkjv@Proverbs:31:21 @ She is not afraid of snow for her household, For all her household is clothed with scarlet.

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

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:31:30 @ 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:1:1 @ The words of the Preacher, the son of David, king in Jerusalem.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:1:3 @ What profit has a man from all his labor In which he toils under the sun?

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

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:1:8 @ All things are full of labor; Man cannot express it. The eye is not satisfied with seeing, Nor the ear filled with hearing.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:1:10 @ Is there anything of which it may be said, "See, this is new"? It has already been in ancient times before us.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:1:11 @ There is no remembrance of former things, Nor will there be any remembrance of things that are to come By those who will come after.

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:1:16 @ 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:2:1 @ I said in my heart, "Come now, I will test you with mirth; therefore enjoy pleasure"; but surely, this also was vanity.

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:2:18 @ Then I hated all my labor in which I had toiled under the sun, because I must leave it to the man who will come after me.

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:2:25 @ For who can eat, or who can have enjoyment, more than I?

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:3:1 @ To everything there is a season, A time for every purpose under heaven:

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:3:9 @ What profit has the worker from that in which he labors?

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:3:11 @ He has made everything beautiful in its time. Also He has put eternity in their hearts, except that no one can find out the work that God does from beginning to end.

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:3:16 @ 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:3:19 @ For what happens to the sons of men also happens to animals; one thing befalls them: as one dies, so dies the other. Surely, they all have one breath; man has no advantage over animals, for all is vanity.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:3:22 @ So I perceived that nothing is better than that a man should rejoice in his own works, for that is his heritage. For who can bring him to see what will happen after him?

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:16 @ 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:5:4 @ When you make a vow to God, do not delay to pay it; For He has no pleasure in fools. Pay what you have vowed--

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:6 @ 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:5:10 @ He who loves silver will not be satisfied with silver; Nor he who loves abundance, with increase. This also is vanity.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:12 @ The sleep of a laboring man is sweet, Whether he eats little or much; But the abundance of the rich will not permit him to sleep.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:13 @ There is a severe evil which I have seen under the sun: Riches kept for their owner to his hurt.

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:5:20 @ For he will not dwell unduly on the days of his life, because God keeps him busy with the joy of his heart.

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:6:5 @ Though it has not seen the sun or known anything, this has more rest than that man,

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

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:6:8 @ For what more has the wise man than the fool? What does the poor man have, Who knows how to walk before the living?

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:6:12 @ For who knows what is good for man in life, all the days of his vain life which he passes like a shadow? Who can tell a man what will happen after him under the sun?

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:7:3 @ Sorrow is better than laughter, For by a sad countenance the heart is made better.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:5 @ It is better to hear the rebuke of the wise Than for a man to hear the song of fools.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:6 @ For like the crackling of thorns under a pot, So is the laughter of the fool. This also is vanity.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:9 @ Do not hasten in your spirit to be angry, For anger rests in the bosom of fools.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:10 @ Do not say, "Why were the former days better than these?" For you do not inquire wisely concerning this.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:12 @ For wisdom is a defense as money is a defense, But the excellence of knowledge is that wisdom gives life to those who have it.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:13 @ Consider the work of God; For who can make straight what He has made crooked?

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:16 @ Do not be overly righteous, Nor be overly wise: Why should you destroy yourself?

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:17 @ Do not be overly wicked, Nor be foolish: Why should you die before your time?

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:7:19 @ Wisdom strengthens the wise More than ten rulers of the city.

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

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:22 @ For many times, also, your own heart has known That even you have cursed others.

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

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

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:7 @ For he does not know what will happen; So who can tell him when it will occur?

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:8:11 @ Because the sentence against an evil work is not executed speedily, therefore the heart of the sons of men is fully set in them to do evil.

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:8:13 @ But it will not be well with the wicked; nor will he prolong his days, which are as a shadow, because he does not fear before God.

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

nkjv@Ecclesiastes: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:8:17 @ then I saw all the work of God, that a man cannot find out the work that is done under the sun. For though a man labors to discover it, yet he will not find it; moreover, though a wise man attempts to know it, he will not be able to find it.

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

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:5 @ 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:9:9 @ 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:9:12 @ For man also does not know his time: Like fish taken in a cruel net, Like birds caught in a snare, So the sons of men are snared in an evil time, When it falls suddenly upon them.

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:9:17 @ Words of the wise, spoken quietly, should be heard Rather than the shout of a ruler of fools.

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

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:5 @ There is an evil I have seen under the sun, As an error proceeding from the ruler:

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:7 @ I have seen servants on horses, While princes walk on the ground like servants.

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:10:12 @ The words of a wise man's mouth are gracious, But the lips of a fool shall swallow him up;

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

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

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:15 @ The labor of fools wearies them, For they do not even know how to go to the city!

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:10:19 @ 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:11:1 @ Cast your bread upon the waters, For you will find it after many days.

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:11:5 @ As you do not know what is the way of the wind, Or how the bones grow in the womb of her who is with child, So you do not know the works of God who makes everything.

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:12:4 @ 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.
