kjv - Job:24-27

kjv@Job:24:1 @ Why, seeing times are not hidden from the Almighty, do they that know him not see his days?

kjv@Job:24:2 @ Some remove the landmarks; they violently take away flocks, and feed thereof.

kjv@Job:24:3 @ They drive away the ass of the fatherless, they take the widow's ox for a pledge.

kjv@Job:24:4 @ They turn the needy out of the way: the poor of the earth hide themselves together.

kjv@Job:24:5 @ Behold, as wild asses in the desert, go they forth to their work; rising betimes for a prey: the wilderness yieldeth food for them and for their children.

kjv@Job:24:6 @ They reap every one his corn in the field: and they gather the vintage of the wicked.

kjv@Job:24:7 @ They cause the naked to lodge without clothing, that they have no covering in the cold.

kjv@Job:24:8 @ They are wet with the showers of the mountains, and embrace the rock for want of a shelter.

kjv@Job:24:9 @ They pluck the fatherless from the breast, and take a pledge of the poor.

kjv@Job:24:10 @ They cause him to go naked without clothing, and they take away the sheaf from the hungry;

kjv@Job:24:11 @ Which make oil within their walls, and tread their winepresses, and suffer thirst.

kjv@Job:24:12 @ Men groan from out of the city, and the soul of the wounded crieth out: yet God layeth not folly to them.

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

kjv@Job:24:14 @ The murderer rising with the light killeth the poor and needy, and in the night is as a thief.

kjv@Job:24:15 @ The eye also of the adulterer waiteth for the twilight, saying, No eye shall see me: and disguiseth his face.

kjv@Job:24:16 @ In the dark they dig through houses, which they had marked for themselves in the daytime: they know not the light.

kjv@Job:24:17 @ For the morning is to them even as the shadow of death: if one know them, they are in the terrors of the shadow of death.

kjv@Job:24:18 @ He is swift as the waters; their portion is cursed in the earth: he beholdeth not the way of the vineyards.

kjv@Job:24:19 @ Drought and heat consume the snow waters: so doth the grave those which have sinned.

kjv@Job:24:20 @ The womb shall forget him; the worm shall feed sweetly on him; he shall be no more remembered; and wickedness shall be broken as a tree.

kjv@Job:24:21 @ He evil entreateth the barren that beareth not: and doeth not good to the widow.

kjv@Job:24:22 @ He draweth also the mighty with his power: he riseth up, and no man is sure of life.

kjv@Job:24:23 @ Though it be given him to be in safety, whereon he resteth; yet his eyes are upon their ways.

kjv@Job:24:24 @ They are exalted for a little while, but are gone and brought low; they are taken out of the way as all other, and cut off as the tops of the ears of corn.

kjv@Job:24:25 @ And if it be not so now, who will make me a liar, and make my speech nothing worth?

kjv@Job:25:1 @ Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said,

kjv@Job:25:2 @ Dominion and fear are with him, he maketh peace in his high places.

kjv@Job:25:3 @ Is there any number of his armies? and upon whom doth not his light arise?

kjv@Job:25:4 @ How then can man be justified with God? or how can he be clean that is born of a woman?

kjv@Job:25:5 @ Behold even to the moon, and it shineth not; yea, the stars are not pure in his sight.

kjv@Job:25:6 @ How much less man, that is a worm? and the son of man, which is a worm?

kjv@Job:26:1 @ But Job answered and said,

kjv@Job:26:2 @ How hast thou helped him that is without power? how savest thou the arm that hath no strength?

kjv@Job:26:3 @ How hast thou counselled him that hath no wisdom? and how hast thou plentifully declared the thing as it is?

kjv@Job:26:4 @ To whom hast thou uttered words? and whose spirit came from thee?

kjv@Job:26:5 @ Dead things are formed from under the waters, and the inhabitants thereof.

kjv@Job:26:6 @ Hell is naked before him, and destruction hath no covering.

kjv@Job:26:7 @ He stretcheth out the north over the empty place, and hangeth the earth upon nothing.

kjv@Job:26:8 @ He bindeth up the waters in his thick clouds; and the cloud is not rent under them.

kjv@Job:26:9 @ He holdeth back the face of his throne, and spreadeth his cloud upon it.

kjv@Job:26:10 @ He hath compassed the waters with bounds, until the day and night come to an end.

kjv@Job:26:11 @ The pillars of heaven tremble and are astonished at his reproof.

kjv@Job:26:12 @ He divideth the sea with his power, and by his understanding he smiteth through the proud.

kjv@Job:26:13 @ By his spirit he hath garnished the heavens; his hand hath formed the crooked serpent.

kjv@Job:26:14 @ Lo, these are parts of his ways: but how little a portion is heard of him? but the thunder of his power who can understand?

kjv@Job:27:1 @ Moreover Job continued his parable, and said,

kjv@Job:27:2 @ As God liveth, who hath taken away my judgment; and the Almighty, who hath vexed my soul;

kjv@Job:27:3 @ All the while my breath is in me, and the spirit of God is in my nostrils;

kjv@Job:27:4 @ My lips shall not speak wickedness, nor my tongue utter deceit.

kjv@Job:27:5 @ God forbid that I should justify you: till I die I will not remove mine integrity from me.

kjv@Job:27:6 @ My righteousness I hold fast, and will not let it go: my heart shall not reproach me so long as I live.

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

kjv@Job:27:8 @ For what is the hope of the hypocrite, though he hath gained, when God taketh away his soul?

kjv@Job:27:9 @ Will God hear his cry when trouble cometh upon him?

kjv@Job:27:10 @ Will he delight himself in the Almighty? will he always call upon God?

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

kjv@Job:27:12 @ Behold, all ye yourselves have seen it; why then are ye thus altogether vain?

kjv@Job:27:13 @ This is the portion of a wicked man with God, and the heritage of oppressors, which they shall receive of the Almighty.

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

kjv@Job:27:15 @ Those that remain of him shall be buried in death: and his widows shall not weep.

kjv@Job:27:16 @ Though he heap up silver as the dust, and prepare raiment as the clay;

kjv@Job:27:17 @ He may prepare it, but the just shall put it on, and the innocent shall divide the silver.

kjv@Job:27:18 @ He buildeth his house as a moth, and as a booth that the keeper maketh.

kjv@Job:27:19 @ The rich man shall lie down, but he shall not be gathered: he openeth his eyes, and he is not.

kjv@Job:27:20 @ Terrors take hold on him as waters, a tempest stealeth him away in the night.

kjv@Job:27:21 @ The east wind carrieth him away, and he departeth: and as a storm hurleth him out of his place.

kjv@Job:27:22 @ For God shall cast upon him, and not spare: he would fain flee out of his hand.

kjv@Job:27:23 @ Men shall clap their hands at him, and shall hiss him out of his place.

kjv@Job:28:1 @ Surely there is a vein for the silver, and a place for gold where they fine it.
