It was so ,
when the days of their feasting had run their course ,
that Job sent and sanctified them ,
and rose up early in the morning ,
and offered burnt offerings according to the number of them all .
For Job said , "
It may be that my sons have sinned ,
and renounced God in their hearts ."
Job did so continually .
