kjv - Job:29:18-25

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

kjv@Job:29:19 @ My root was spread out by the waters, and the dew lay all night upon my branch.

kjv@Job:29:20 @ My glory was fresh in me, and my bow was renewed in my hand.

kjv@Job:29:21 @ Unto me men gave ear, and waited, and kept silence at my counsel.

kjv@Job:29:22 @ After my words they spake not again; and my speech dropped upon them.

kjv@Job:29:23 @ And they waited for me as for the rain; and they opened their mouth wide as for the latter rain.

kjv@Job:29:24 @ If I laughed on them, they believed it not; and the light of my countenance they cast not down.

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