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

jps@Job:9:33 @ There is no arbiter betwixt us, that might lay his hand upon us both.

jps@Job:10:3 @ Is it good unto Thee that Thou shouldest oppress, that Thou shouldest despise the work of Thy hands, and shine upon the counsel of the wicked?

jps@Job:10:6 @ That Thou inquirest after mine iniquity, and searchest after my sin,

jps@Job:10:7 @ Although Thou knowest that I shall not be condemned; and there is none that can deliver out of Thy hand?

jps@Job:10:9 @ Remember, I beseech Thee, that Thou hast fashioned me as clay; and wilt Thou bring me into dust again?

jps@Job:10:13 @ Yet these things Thou didst hide in Thy heart; I know that this is with Thee;

jps@Job:10:18 @ Wherefore then hast Thou brought me forth out of the womb? Would that I had perished, and no eye had seen me!

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

jps@Job:11:5 @ But oh that God would speak, and open His lips against thee;

jps@Job:11:6 @ And that He would tell thee the secrets of wisdom, that sound wisdom is manifold! Know therefore that God exacteth of thee less than thine iniquity deserveth.

jps@Job:11:16 @ For thou shalt forget thy misery; thou shalt remember it as waters that are passed away;

jps@Job:12:4 @ I am as one that is a laughing-stock to his neighbour, a man that called upon God, and He answered him; the just, the innocent man is a laughing-stock,

jps@Job:12:5 @ A contemptible brand in the thought of him that is at ease, a thing ready for them whose foot slippeth.

jps@Job:12:6 @ The tents of robbers prosper, and they that provoke God are secure, in whatsoever God bringeth into their hand.

jps@Job:12:9 @ Who knoweth not among all these, that the hand of the LORD hath wrought this?

jps@Job:13:5 @ Oh that ye would altogether hold your peace! and it would be your wisdom.

jps@Job:13:9 @ Would it be good that He should search you out? Or as one mocketh a man, will ye mock Him?

jps@Job:13:13 @ Hold your peace, let me alone, that I may speak, and let come on me what will.

jps@Job:13:16 @ This also shall be my salvation, that a hypocrite cannot come before Him.

jps@Job:13:18 @ Behold now, I have ordered my cause; I know that I shall be justified.

jps@Job:13:19 @ Who is he that will contend with me? For then would I hold my peace and die.

jps@Job:13:26 @ That Thou shouldest write bitter things against me, and make me to inherit the iniquities of my youth.

jps@Job:13:28 @ Though I am like a wine-skin that consumeth, like a garment that is moth-eaten.

jps@Job:14:1 @ Man that is born of a woman is of few days, and full of trouble.

jps@Job:14:5 @ Seeing his days are determined, the number of his months is with Thee, and Thou hast appointed his bounds that he cannot pass;

jps@Job:14:6 @ Look away from him, that he may rest, till he shall accomplish, as a hireling, his day.

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

jps@Job:14:13 @ Oh that Thou wouldest hide me in the nether-world, that Thou wouldest keep me secret, until Thy wrath be past, that Thou wouldest appoint me a set time, and remember me!--

jps@Job:15:7 @ Art thou the first man that was born? Or wast thou brought forth before the hills?

jps@Job:15:9 @ What knowest thou, that we know not? What understandest thou, which is not in us?

jps@Job:15:11 @ Are the consolations of God too small for thee, and the word that dealeth gently with thee?

jps@Job:15:13 @ That thou turnest thy spirit against God, and lettest such words go out of thy mouth.

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

jps@Job:15:16 @ How much less one that is abominable and impure, man who drinketh iniquity like water!

jps@Job:15:17 @ I will tell thee, hear thou me; and that which I have seen I will declare--

jps@Job:15:20 @ The wicked man travaileth with pain all his days, even the number of years that are laid up for the oppressor.

jps@Job:15:22 @ He believeth not that he shall return out of darkness, and he is waited for of the sword.

jps@Job:15:23 @ He wandereth abroad for bread: 'Where is it?' He knoweth that the day of darkness is ready at his hand.

jps@Job:16:3 @ Shall windy words have an end? Or what provoketh thee that thou answerest?

jps@Job:16:19 @ Even now, behold, my Witness is in heaven, and He that testifieth of me is on high.

jps@Job:16:21 @ That He would set aright a man contending with God, as a son of man setteth aright his neighbour!

jps@Job:16:22 @ For the years that are few are coming on, and I shall go the way whence I shall not return.

jps@Job:17:3 @ Give now a pledge, be surety for me with Thyself; who else is there that will strike hands with me?

jps@Job:17:5 @ He that denounceth his friends for the sake of flattery, even the eyes of his children shall fail.

jps@Job:17:9 @ Yet the righteous holdeth on his way, and he that hath clean hands waxeth stronger and stronger.

jps@Job:18:4 @ Thou that tearest thyself in thine anger, shall the earth be forsaken for thee? Or shall the rock be removed out of its place?

jps@Job:18:14 @ That wherein he trusteth shall be plucked out of his tent; and he shall be brought to the king of terrors.

jps@Job:18:15 @ There shall dwell in his tent that which is none of his; brimstone shall be scattered upon his habitation.

jps@Job:18:20 @ They that come after shall be astonished at his day, as they that went before are affrighted.

jps@Job:18:21 @ Surely such are the dwellings of the wicked, and this is the place of him that knoweth not God.

jps@Job:19:3 @ These ten times have ye reproached me; ye are not ashamed that ye deal harshly with me.

jps@Job:19:4 @ And be it indeed that I have erred, mine error remaineth with myself.

jps@Job:19:6 @ Know now that God hath subverted my cause, and hath compassed me with His net.

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

jps@Job:19:15 @ They that dwell in my house, and my maids, count me for a stranger; I am become an alien in their sight.

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

jps@Job:19:24 @ That with an iron pen and lead they were graven in the rock for ever!

jps@Job:19:25 @ But as for me, I know that my Redeemer liveth, and that He will witness at the last upon the dust;

jps@Job:19:28 @ If ye say: 'How we will persecute him!' seeing that the root of the matter is found in me;

jps@Job:19:29 @ Be ye afraid of the sword; for wrath bringeth the punishments of the sword, that ye may know there is a judgment.

jps@Job:20:2 @ Therefore do my thoughts give answer to me, even by reason of mine agitation that is in me.

jps@Job:20:5 @ That the triumphing of the wicked is short, and the joy of the godless but for a moment?

jps@Job:20:7 @ Yet he shall perish for ever like his own dung; they that have seen him shall say: 'Where is he?'

jps@Job:20:18 @ That which he laboured for shall he give back, and shall not swallow it down; according to the substance that he hath gotten, he shall not rejoice.

jps@Job:20:21 @ There was nothing left that he devoured not--therefore his prosperity shall not endure.

jps@Job:20:22 @ In the fulness of his sufficiency he shall be in straits; the hand of every one that is in misery shall come upon him.

jps@Job:20:26 @ All darkness is laid up for his treasures; a fire not blown by man shall consume him; it shall go ill with him that is left in his tent.

jps@Job:21:3 @ Suffer me, that I may speak; and after that I have spoken, mock on.

jps@Job:21:15 @ What is the Almighty, that we should serve Him? And what profit should we have, if we pray unto Him?'--

jps@Job:21:17 @ How oft is it that the lamp of the wicked is put out? that their calamity cometh upon them? that He distributeth pains in His anger?

jps@Job:21:18 @ That they are as stubble before the wind, and as chaff that the storm stealeth away?

jps@Job:21:19 @ 'God layeth up his iniquity for his children!'--let Him recompense it unto himself, that he may know it.

jps@Job:21:22 @ Shall any teach God knowledge? seeing it is He that judgeth those that are high.

jps@Job:21:29 @ Have ye not asked them that go by the way; and will ye misdeem their tokens,

jps@Job:21:30 @ That the evil man is reserved to the day of calamity, that they are led forth to the day of wrath?

jps@Job:22:2 @ Can a man be profitable unto God? Or can he that is wise be profitable unto Him?

jps@Job:22:3 @ Is it any advantage to the Almighty, that thou art righteous? Or is it gain to Him, that thou makest thy ways blameless?

jps@Job:22:4 @ Is it for thy fear of Him that He reproveth thee, that He entereth with thee into judgment?

jps@Job:22:11 @ Or darkness, that thou canst not see, and abundance of waters cover thee.

jps@Job:22:14 @ Thick clouds are a covering to Him, that He seeth not; and He walketh in the circuit of heaven.'

jps@Job:22:30 @ He delivereth him that is innocent, yea, thou shalt be delivered through the cleanness of thy hands.

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

jps@Job:23:10 @ For He knoweth the way that I take; when He hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold.

jps@Job:23:13 @ But He is at one with Himself, and who can turn Him? And what His soul desireth, even that He doeth.

jps@Job:23:14 @ For He will perform that which is appointed for me; and many such things are with Him.

jps@Job:24:1 @ Why are times not laid up by the Almighty? And why do not they that know Him see His days?

jps@Job:24:2 @ There are that remove the landmarks; they violently take away flocks, and feed them.

jps@Job:24:9 @ There are that pluck the fatherless from the breast, and take a pledge of the poor;

jps@Job:24:10 @ So that they go about naked without clothing, and being hungry they carry the sheaves;

jps@Job:24:13 @ These are of them that rebel against the light; they know not the ways thereof, nor abide in the paths thereof.

jps@Job:24:19 @ Drought and heat consume the snow waters; so doth the nether-world those that have sinned.

jps@Job:24:21 @ He devoureth the barren that beareth not; and doeth not good to the widow.

jps@Job:25:4 @ How then can man be just with God? Or how can he be clean that is born of a woman?

jps@Job:25:6 @ How much less man, that is a worm! and the son of man, that is a maggot!

jps@Job:26:2 @ How hast thou helped him that is without power! How hast thou saved the arm that hath no strength!

jps@Job:26:3 @ How hast thou counselled him that hath no wisdom, and plentifully declared sound knowledge!

jps@Job:27:5 @ Far be it from me that I should justify you; till I die I will not put away mine integrity from me.

jps@Job:27:7 @ Let mine enemy be as the wicked, and let him that riseth up against me be as the unrighteous.

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

jps@Job:27:15 @ Those that remain of him shall be buried by pestilence, and his widows shall make no lamentation.

jps@Job:28:4 @ He breaketh open a shaft away from where men sojourn; they are forgotten of the foot that passeth by; they hang afar from men, they swing to and fro.

jps@Job:28:7 @ That path no bird of prey knoweth, neither hath the falcon's eye seen it;

jps@Job:28:11 @ He bindeth the streams that they trickle not; and the thing that is hid bringeth he forth to light.

jps@Job:28:28 @ And unto man He said: 'Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom; and to depart from evil is understanding.'

jps@Job:29:2 @ Oh that I were as in the months of old, as in the days when God watched over me;

jps@Job:29:12 @ Because I delivered the poor that cried, the fatherless also, that had none to help him.

jps@Job:29:13 @ The blessing of him that was ready to perish came upon me; and I caused the widow's heart to sing for joy.

jps@Job:29:16 @ I was a father to the needy; and the cause of him that I knew not I searched out.

jps@Job:29:25 @ I chose out their way, and sat as chief, and dwelt as a king in the army, as one that comforteth the mourners.

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

jps@Job:30:13 @ They break up my path, they further my calamity, even men that have no helper.

jps@Job:30:23 @ For I know that Thou wilt bring me to death, and to the house appointed for all living.

jps@Job:30:25 @ If I have not wept for him that was in trouble, and if my soul grieved not for the needy.

jps@Job:30:31 @ Therefore is my harp turned to mourning, and my pipe into the voice of them that weep.

jps@Job:31:6 @ Let me be weighed in a just balance, that God may know mine integrity--

jps@Job:31:11 @ For that were a heinous crime; yea, it were an iniquity to be punished by the judges.

jps@Job:31:12 @ For it is a fire that consumeth unto destruction, and would root out all mine increase.

jps@Job:31:15 @ Did not He that made me in the womb make him? And did not One fashion us in the womb?

jps@Job:31:16 @ If I have withheld aught that the poor desired, or have caused the eyes of the widow to fail;

jps@Job:31:19 @ If I have seen any wanderer in want of clothing, or that the needy had no covering;

jps@Job:31:28 @ This also were an iniquity to be punished by the judges; for I should have lied to God that is above.

jps@Job:31:29 @ If I rejoiced at the destruction of him that hated me, or exulted when evil found him--

jps@Job:31:31 @ If the men of my tent said not: 'Who can find one that hath not been satisfied with his meat?'

jps@Job:31:34 @ Because I feared the great multitude, and the most contemptible among families terrified me, so that I kept silence, and went not out of the door.

jps@Job:31:35 @ Oh that I had one to hear me!--Lo, here is my signature, let the Almighty answer me--and that I had the indictment which mine adversary hath written!

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

jps@Job:32:8 @ But it is a spirit in man, and the breath of the Almighty, that giveth them understanding.

jps@Job:32:9 @ It is not the great that are wise, nor the aged that discern judgment.

jps@Job:32:12 @ Yea, I attended unto you, and, behold, there was none that convinced Job, or that answered his words, among you.

jps@Job:32:20 @ I will speak, that I may find relief; I will open my lips and answer.

jps@Job:33:3 @ My words shall utter the uprightness of my heart; and that which my lips know they shall speak sincerely.

jps@Job:33:12 @ Behold, I answer thee: In this thou art not right, that God is too great for man;

jps@Job:33:13 @ Why hast thou striven against Him? seeing that He will not answer any of his words.

jps@Job:33:17 @ That men may put away their purpose, and that He may hide pride from man;

jps@Job:33:18 @ That He may keep back his soul from the pit, and his life from perishing by the sword.

jps@Job:33:20 @ So that his life maketh him to abhor bread, and his soul dainty food.

jps@Job:33:21 @ His flesh is consumed away, that it cannot be seen; and his bones corrode to unsightliness.

jps@Job:33:26 @ He prayeth unto God, and He is favourable unto him; so that he seeth His face with joy; and He restoreth unto man his righteousness.

jps@Job:33:27 @ He cometh before men, and saith: 'I have sinned, and perverted that which was right, and it profited me not.'

jps@Job:33:30 @ To bring back his soul from the pit, that he may be enlightened with the light of the living.

jps@Job:34:2 @ Hear my words, ye wise men; and give ear unto me, ye that have knowledge.

jps@Job:34:4 @ Let us choose for us that which is right; let us know among ourselves what is good.

jps@Job:34:9 @ For he hath said: 'It profiteth a man nothing that he should be in accord with God.'

jps@Job:34:10 @ Therefore hearken unto me, ye men of understanding: Far be it from God, that He should do wickedness; and from the Almighty, that He should commit iniquity.

jps@Job:34:17 @ Shall even one that hateth right govern? And wilt thou condemn Him that is just and mighty--

jps@Job:34:19 @ That respecteth not the persons of princes, nor regardeth the rich more than the poor? For they all are the work of His hands.

jps@Job:34:25 @ Therefore He taketh knowledge of their works; and He overturneth them in the night, so that they are crushed.

jps@Job:34:28 @ So that they cause the cry of the poor to come unto Him, and He heareth the cry of the afflicted.

jps@Job:34:30 @ That the godless man reign not, that there be none to ensnare the people.

jps@Job:34:32 @ That which I see not teach Thou me; if I have done iniquity, I will do it no more'?

jps@Job:34:33 @ Shall His recompense be as thou wilt? For thou loathest it, so that thou must choose, and not I; therefore speak what thou knowest.

jps@Job:34:34 @ Men of understanding will say unto me, yea, every wise man that heareth me:

jps@Job:34:36 @ Would that Job were tried unto the end, because of his answering like wicked men.

jps@Job:35:3 @ That thou inquirest: 'What advantage will it be unto Thee?' And: 'What profit shall I have, more than if I had sinned?'

jps@Job:35:15 @ And now, is it for nought that He punished in His anger? And hath He not full knowledge of arrogance?

jps@Job:36:4 @ For truly my words are not false; one that is upright in mind is with thee.

jps@Job:36:9 @ Then He declareth unto them their work, and their transgressions, that they have behaved themselves proudly.

jps@Job:36:10 @ He openeth also their ear to discipline, and commandeth that they return from iniquity.

jps@Job:36:13 @ But they that are godless in heart lay up anger; they cry not for help when He bindeth them.

jps@Job:36:14 @ Their soul perisheth in youth, and their life as that of the depraved.

jps@Job:36:16 @ Yea, He hath allured thee out of distress into a broad place, where there is no straitness; and that which is set on thy table is full of fatness;

jps@Job:36:19 @ Will thy riches avail, that are without stint, or all the forces of thy strength?

jps@Job:36:24 @ Remember that thou magnify His work, whereof men have sung.

jps@Job:36:32 @ He covereth His hands with the lightning, and giveth it a charge that it strike the mark.

jps@Job:36:33 @ The noise thereof telleth concerning it, the cattle also concerning the storm that cometh up.

jps@Job:37:2 @ Hear attentively the noise of His voice, and the sound that goeth out of His mouth.

jps@Job:37:7 @ He sealeth up the hand of every man, that all men whom He hath made may know it.

jps@Job:37:12 @ And they are turned round about by His guidance, that they may do whatsoever He commandeth them upon the face of the habitable world:

jps@Job:37:13 @ Whether it be for correction, or for His earth, or for mercy, that He cause it to come.

jps@Job:37:20 @ Shall it be told Him that I would speak? Or should a man wish that he were swallowed up?

jps@Job:37:24 @ Men do therefore fear Him; He regardeth not any that are wise of heart.

jps@Job:38:2 @ Who is this that darkeneth counsel by words without knowledge?

jps@Job:38:13 @ That it might take hold of the ends of the earth, and the wicked be shaken out of it?

jps@Job:38:20 @ That thou shouldest take it to the bound thereof, and that thou shouldest know the paths to the house thereof?

jps@Job:38:34 @ Canst thou lift up thy voice to the clouds, that abundance of waters may cover thee?

jps@Job:38:35 @ Canst thou send forth lightnings, that they may go, and say unto thee: 'Here we are'?

jps@Job:39:2 @ Canst thou number the months that they fulfil? Or knowest thou the time when they bring forth?

jps@Job:39:12 @ Wilt thou rely on him, that he will bring home thy seed, and gather the corn of thy threshing-floor?

jps@Job:39:15 @ And forgetteth that the foot may crush them, or that the wild beast may trample them.

jps@Job:39:24 @ He swalloweth the ground with storm and rage; neither believeth he that it is the voice of the horn.

jps@Job:40:2 @ Shall he that reproveth contend with the Almighty? He that argueth with God, let him answer it.

jps@Job:40:8 @ Wilt thou even make void My judgment? Wilt thou condemn Me, that thou mayest be justified?

jps@Job:40:11 @ Cast abroad the rage of thy wrath; and look upon every one that is proud, and abase him.

jps@Job:40:12 @ Look on every one that is proud, and bring him low; and tread down the wicked in their place.

jps@Job:40:14 @ Then will I also confess unto thee that thine own right hand can save thee.

jps@Job:40:19 @ He is the beginning of the ways of God; He only that made him can make His sword to approach unto him.

jps@Job:41:4 @ Will he make a covenant with thee, that thou shouldest take him for a servant for ever?

jps@Job:41:10 @ None is so fierce that dare stir him up; who then is able to stand before Me?

jps@Job:41:11 @ Who hath given Me anything beforehand, that I should repay him? Whatsoever is under the whole heaven is Mine.

jps@Job:41:16 @ One is so near to another, that no air can come between them.

jps@Job:41:17 @ They are joined one to another; they stick together, that they cannot be sundered.

jps@Job:42:2 @ I know that Thou canst do every thing, and that no purpose can be withholden from Thee.

jps@Job:42:3 @ Who is this that hideth counsel without knowledge? Therefore have I uttered that which I understood not, things too wonderful for me, which I knew not.

jps@Job:42:7 @ And it was so, that after the LORD had spoken these words unto Job, the LORD said to Eliphaz the Temanite: 'My wrath is kindled against thee, and against thy two friends; for ye have not spoken of Me the thing that is right, as My servant Job hath.

jps@Job:42:8 @ Now therefore, take unto you seven bullocks and seven rams, and go to My servant Job, and offer up for yourselves a burnt- offering; and My servant Job shall pray for you; for him will I accept, that I do not unto you aught unseemly; for ye have not spoken of Me the thing that is right, as my servant Job hath.'

jps@Job:42:11 @ Then came there unto him all his brethren, and all his sisters, and all they that had been of his acquaintance before, and did eat bread with him in his house; and they bemoaned him, and comforted him concerning all the evil that the LORD had brought upon him; every man also gave him a piece of money, and every one a ring of gold.

jps@Psalms:1:1 @ BOOK I HAPPY IS the man that hath not walked in the counsel of the wicked, nor stood in the way of sinners, nor sat in the seat of the scornful.

jps@Psalms:4:6 @ Many there are that say: 'Oh that we could see some good!' LORD, lift Thou up the light of Thy countenance upon us.

jps@Psalms:5:4 @ For Thou art not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness; evil shall not sojourn with Thee.

jps@Psalms:5:6 @ Thou destroyest them that speak falsehood; the LORD abhorreth the man of blood and of deceit.

jps@Psalms:5:8 @ O LORD, lead me in Thy righteousness because of them that lie in wait for me; make Thy way straight before my face.
