rsv@Job:22:2 @ "Can a man be profitable to God? Surely he who is wise is profitable to himself.
rsv@Job:22:3 @ Is it any pleasure to the Almighty if you are righteous, or is it gain to him if you make your ways blameless?
rsv@Job:22:4 @ Is it for your fear of him that he reproves you, and enters into judgment with you?
rsv@Job:22:5 @ Is not your wickedness great? There is no end to your iniquities.
rsv@Job:22:6 @ For you have exacted pledges of your brothers for nothing, and stripped the naked of their clothing.
rsv@Job:22:7 @ You have given no water to the weary to drink, and you have withheld bread from the hungry.
rsv@Job:22:8 @ The man with power possessed the land, and the favored man dwelt in it.
rsv@Job:22:9 @ You have sent widows away empty, and the arms of the fatherless were crushed.
rsv@Job:22:10 @ Therefore snares are round about you, and sudden terror overwhelms you;
rsv@Job:22:11 @ your light is darkened, so that you cannot see, and a flood of water covers you.
rsv@Job:22:12 @ "Is not God high in the heavens? See the highest stars, how lofty they are!
rsv@Job:22:13 @ Therefore you say, `erefore you say, "What does God know? Can he judge through the deep darkness?
rsv@Job:22:14 @ Thick clouds enwrap him, so that he does not see, and he walks on the vault of heaven.'
rsv@Job:22:15 @ Will you keep to the old way which wicked men have trod?
rsv@Job:22:16 @ They were snatched away before their time; their foundation was washed away.
rsv@Job:22:17 @ They said to God, `ey said to God, "Depart from us,' and `d "What can the Almighty do to us?'
rsv@Job:22:18 @ Yet he filled their houses with good things-- but the counsel of the wicked is far from me.
rsv@Job:22:19 @ The righteous see it and are glad; the innocent laugh them to scorn,
rsv@Job:22:20 @ saying, `f, and what they left the fire has consumed.'
rsv@Job:22:21 @ "Agree with God, and be at peace; thereby good will come to you.
rsv@Job:22:22 @ Receive instruction from his mouth, and lay up his words in your heart.
rsv@Job:22:23 @ If you return to the Almighty and humble yourself, if you remove unrighteousness far from your tents,
rsv@Job:22:24 @ if you lay gold in the dust, and gold of Ophir among the stones of the torrent bed,
rsv@Job:22:25 @ and if the Almighty is your gold, and your precious silver;
rsv@Job:22:26 @ then you will delight yourself in the Almighty, and lift up your face to God.
rsv@Job:22:27 @ You will make your prayer to him, and he will hear you; and you will pay your vows.
rsv@Job:22:28 @ You will decide on a matter, and it will be established for you, and light will shine on your ways.
rsv@Job:22:29 @ For God abases the proud, but he saves the lowly.
rsv@Job:22:30 @ He delivers the innocent man; you will be delivered through the cleanness of your hands."
