nasb@Job:1:2 @Seven sons and three daughters were born to him.

nasb@Job:1:3 @His possessions also were 7,000 sheep, 3,000 camels, 500 yoke of oxen, 500 female donkeys, and very many servants; and that man was the greatest of all the men of the east.

nasb@Job:1:4 @His sons used to go and hold a feast in the house of each one on his day, and they would send and invite their three sisters to eat and drink with them.

nasb@Job:1:5 @When the days of feasting had completed their cycle, Job would send and consecrate them, rising up early in the morning and offering burnt offerings according to the number of them all; for Job said, " Perhaps my sons have sinned and cursed God in their hearts." Thus Job did continually.

nasb@Job:1:6 @Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan also came among them.

nasb@Job:1:7 @The LORD said to Satan, "From where do you come?" Then Satan answered the LORD and said, " From roaming about on the earth and walking around on it."

nasb@Job:1:8 @The LORD said to Satan, "Have you considered My servant Job? For there is no one like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man, fearing God and turning away from evil."

nasb@Job:1:10" @ Have You not made a hedge about him and his house and all that he has, on every side? You have blessed the work of his hands, and his possessions have increased in the land.

nasb@Job:1:12 @Then the LORD said to Satan, "Behold, all that he has is in your power, only do not put forth your hand on him." So Satan departed from the presence of the LORD.

nasb@Job:1:13 @Now on the day when his sons and his daughters were eating and drinking wine in their oldest brother's house,

nasb@Job:1:14 @a messenger came to Job and said, "The oxen were plowing and the donkeys feeding beside them,

nasb@Job:1:15 @and the Sabeans attacked and took them. They also slew the servants with the edge of the sword, and I alone have escaped to tell you."

nasb@Job:1:16 @While he was still speaking, another also came and said, " The fire of God fell from heaven and burned up the sheep and the servants and consumed them, and I alone have escaped to tell you."

nasb@Job:1:17 @While he was still speaking, another also came and said, "The Chaldeans formed three bands and made a raid on the camels and took them and slew the servants with the edge of the sword, and I alone have escaped to tell you."

nasb@Job:1:18 @While he was still speaking, another also came and said, "Your sons and your daughters were eating and drinking wine in their oldest brother's house,

nasb@Job:1:19 @and behold, a great wind came from across the wilderness and struck the four corners of the house, and it fell on the young people and they died, and I alone have escaped to tell you."

nasb@Job:2:1 @Again there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan also came among them to present himself before the LORD.

nasb@Job:2:2 @The LORD said to Satan, "Where have you come from?" Then Satan answered the LORD and said, "From roaming about on the earth and walking around on it."

nasb@Job:2:3 @The LORD said to Satan, "Have you considered My servant Job? For there is no one like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man fearing God and turning away from evil. And he still holds fast his integrity, although you incited Me against him to ruin him without cause."

nasb@Job:2:5" @ However, put forth Your hand now, and touch his bone and his flesh; he will curse You to Your face."

nasb@Job:2:6 @So the LORD said to Satan, "Behold, he is in your power, only spare his life."

nasb@Job:2:8 @And he took a potsherd to scrape himself while he was sitting among the ashes.

nasb@Job:2:10 @But he said to her, "You speak as one of the foolish women speaks. Shall we indeed accept good from God and not accept adversity?" In all this Job did not sin with his lips.

nasb@Job:2:11 @Now when Job's three friends heard of all this adversity that had come upon him, they came each one from his own place, Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite and Zophar the Naamathite; and they made an appointment together to come to sympathize with him and comfort him.

nasb@Job:2:13 @Then they sat down on the ground with him for seven days and seven nights with no one speaking a word to him, for they saw that his pain was very great.

nasb@Job:3:3" @ Let the day perish on which I was to be born, And the night which said, 'A boy is conceived.'

nasb@Job:3:4" @May that day be darkness; Let not God above care for it, Nor light shine on it.

nasb@Job:3:5" @Let darkness and black gloom claim it; Let a cloud settle on it; Let the blackness of the day terrify it.

nasb@Job:3:6" @As for that night, let darkness seize it; Let it not rejoice among the days of the year; Let it not come into the number of the months.

nasb@Job:3:9" @Let the stars of its twilight be darkened; Let it wait for light but have none, And let it not see the breaking dawn;

nasb@Job:3:18" @The prisoners are at ease together; They do not hear the voice of the taskmaster.

nasb@Job:3:21 @Who long for death, but there is none, And dig for it more than for hidden treasures,

nasb@Job:3:25" @For what I fear comes upon me, And what I dread befalls me.

nasb@Job:3:2" @If one ventures a word with you, will you become impatient? But who can refrain from speaking?

nasb@Job:3:3" @Behold you have admonished many, And you have strengthened weak hands.

nasb@Job:3:6" @Is not your fear of God your confidence, And the integrity of your ways your hope?

nasb@Job:3:10" @The roaring of the lion and the voice of the fierce lion, And the teeth of the young lions are broken.

nasb@Job:3:11" @The lion perishes for lack of prey, And the whelps of the lioness are scattered.

nasb@Job:3:13" @Amid disquieting thoughts from the visions of the night, When deep sleep falls on men,

nasb@Job:3:14 @Dread came upon me, and trembling, And made all my bones shake.

nasb@Job:3:19 @'How much more those who dwell in houses of clay, Whose foundation is in the dust, Who are crushed before the moth!

nasb@Job:3:5" @Call now, is there anyone who will answer you? And to which of the holy ones will you turn?

nasb@Job:3:4" @His sons are far from safety, They are even oppressed in the gate, And there is no deliverer.

nasb@Job:3:6" @For affliction does not come from the dust, Nor does trouble sprout from the ground,

nasb@Job:3:9 @Who does great and unsearchable things, Wonders without number.

nasb@Job:3:10" @He gives rain on the earth And sends water on the fields,

nasb@Job:3:11 @So that He sets on high those who are lowly, And those who mourn are lifted to safety.

nasb@Job:3:14" @By day they meet with darkness, And grope at noon as in the night.

nasb@Job:3:21" @You will be hidden from the scourge of the tongue, And you will not be afraid of violence when it comes.

nasb@Job:3:23" @For you will be in league with the stones of the field, And the beasts of the field will be at peace with you.

nasb@Job:3:26" @You will come to the grave in full vigor, Like the stacking of grain in its season.

nasb@Job:3:4" @For the arrows of the Almighty are within me, Their poison my spirit drinks; The terrors of God are arrayed against me.

nasb@Job:3:5" @Does the wild donkey bray over his grass, Or does the ox low over his fodder?

nasb@Job:3:8" @Oh that my request might come to pass, And that God would grant my longing!

nasb@Job:3:10" @But it is still my consolation, And I rejoice in unsparing pain, That I have not denied the words of the Holy One.

nasb@Job:3:12" @Is my strength the strength of stones, Or is my flesh bronze?

nasb@Job:3:18" @The paths of their course wind along, They go up into nothing and perish.

nasb@Job:3:20" @They were disappointed for they had trusted, They came there and were confounded.

nasb@Job:3:25" @How painful are honest words! But what does your argument prove?

nasb@Job:3:26" @Do you intend to reprove my words, When the words of one in despair belong to the wind?

nasb@Job:3:30" @Is there injustice on my tongueNULL Cannot my palate discern calamitiesNULL

nasb@Job:3:7" @Is not man forced to labor on earth, And are not his days like the days of a hired man?

nasb@Job:3:3 @So am I allotted months of vanity, And nights of trouble are appointed me.

nasb@Job:3:4" @When I lie down I say, 'When shall I arise?' But the night continues, And I am continually tossing until dawn.

nasb@Job:3:8" @The eye of him who sees me will behold me no longer; Your eyes will be on me, but I will not be.

nasb@Job:3:9" @When a cloud vanishes, it is gone, So he who goes down to Sheol does not come up.

nasb@Job:3:12" @Am I the sea, or the sea monster, That You set a guard over me?

nasb@Job:3:14 @Then You frighten me with dreams And terrify me by visions;

nasb@Job:3:15 @So that my soul would choose suffocation, Death rather than my pains.

nasb@Job:3:16" @I waste away; I will not live forever. Leave me alone, for my days are but a breath.

nasb@Job:3:17" @ What is man that You magnify him, And that You are concerned about him,

nasb@Job:3:19" @ Will You never turn Your gaze away from me, Nor let me alone until I swallow my spittle?

nasb@Job:3:20" @ Have I sinned? What have I done to You, O watcher of men? Why have You set me as Your target, So that I am a burden to myself?

nasb@Job:3:21" @Why then do You not pardon my transgression And take away my iniquityNULL For now I will lie down in the dust; And You will seek me, but I will not be."

nasb@Job:3:2" @How long will you say these things, And the words of your mouth be a mighty wind?

nasb@Job:3:4" @ If your sons sinned against Him, Then He delivered them into the power of their transgression.

nasb@Job:3:5" @If you would seek God And implore the compassion of the Almighty,

nasb@Job:3:8" @Please inquire of past generations, And consider the things searched out by their fathers.

nasb@Job:3:9" @For we are only of yesterday and know nothing, Because our days on earth are as a shadow.

nasb@Job:3:14 @Whose confidence is fragile, And whose trust a spider's web.

nasb@Job:3:17" @His roots wrap around a rock pile, He grasps a house of stones.

nasb@Job:3:22" @Those who hate you will be clothed with shame, And the tent of the wicked will be no longer."

nasb@Job:3:3" @If one wished to dispute with Him, He could not answer Him once in a thousand times.

nasb@Job:3:7 @Who commands the sun not to shine, And sets a seal upon the stars;

nasb@Job:3:8 @Who alone stretches out the heavens And tramples down the waves of the sea;

nasb@Job:3:9 @Who makes the Bear, Orion and the Pleiades, And the chambers of the south;

nasb@Job:3:10 @Who does great things, unfathomable, And wondrous works without number.

nasb@Job:3:19" @If it is a matter of power, behold, He is the strong one! And if it is a matter of justice, who can summon Him?

nasb@Job:3:20" @ Though I am righteous, my mouth will condemn me; Though I am guiltless, He will declare me guilty.

nasb@Job:3:22" @It is all one; therefore I say, 'He destroys the guiltless and the wicked.'

nasb@Job:3:26" @They slip by like reed boats, Like an eagle that swoops on its prey.

nasb@Job:3:33" @There is no umpire between us, Who may lay his hand upon us both.

nasb@Job:3:2" @I will say to God, ' Do not condemn me; Let me know why You contend with me.

nasb@Job:3:3 @'Is it right for You indeed to oppress, To reject the labor of Your hands, And to look favorably on the schemes of the wicked?

nasb@Job:3:8 @' Your hands fashioned and made me altogether, And would You destroy me?

nasb@Job:3:11 @Clothe me with skin and flesh, And knit me together with bones and sinews?

nasb@Job:3:13 @'Yet these things You have concealed in Your heart; I know that this is within You-

nasb@Job:3:15 @'If I am wicked, woe to me! And if I am righteous, I dare not lift up my head. I am sated with disgrace and conscious of my misery.

nasb@Job:3:16 @'Should my head be lifted up, You would hunt me like a lion; And again You would show Your power against me.

nasb@Job:3:20" @Would He not let my few days alone? Withdraw from me that I may have a little cheer

nasb@Job:3:3" @Shall your boasts silence men? And shall you scoff and none rebuke?

nasb@Job:3:9" @Its measure is longer than the earth And broader than the sea.

nasb@Job:3:12" @ An idiot will become intelligent When the foal of a wild donkey is born a man.

nasb@Job:3:17" @Your life would be brighter than noonday; Darkness would be like the morning.

nasb@Job:3:19" @You would lie down and none would disturb you, And many would entreat your favor.

nasb@Job:3:12 @Then Job responded,

nasb@Job:3:4" @I am a joke to my friends, The one who called on God and He answered him; The just and blameless man is a joke.

nasb@Job:3:5" @He who is at ease holds calamity in contempt, As prepared for those whose feet slip.

nasb@Job:3:9" @Who among all these does not know That the hand of the LORD has done this,

nasb@Job:3:12" @Wisdom is with aged men, With long life is understanding.

nasb@Job:3:13" @With Him are wisdom and might; To Him belong counsel and understanding.

nasb@Job:3:14" @Behold, He tears down, and it cannot be rebuilt; He imprisons a man, and there can be no release.

nasb@Job:3:16" @With Him are strength and sound wisdom, The misled and the misleader belong to Him.

nasb@Job:3:18" @He loosens the bond of kings And binds their loins with a girdle.

nasb@Job:3:19" @He makes priests walk barefoot And overthrows the secure ones.

nasb@Job:3:20" @He deprives the trusted ones of speech And takes away the discernment of the elders.

nasb@Job:3:21" @He pours contempt on nobles And loosens the belt of the strong.

nasb@Job:3:23" @He makes the nations great, then destroys them; He enlarges the nations, then leads them away.

nasb@Job:3:6" @Please hear my argument And listen to the contentions of my lips.

nasb@Job:3:8" @Will you show partiality for Him? Will you contend for God?

nasb@Job:3:9" @Will it be well when He examines you? Or will you deceive Him as one deceives a man?

nasb@Job:3:11" @Will not His majesty terrify you, And the dread of Him fall on you?

nasb@Job:3:13" @ Be silent before me so that I may speak; Then let come on me what may.

nasb@Job:3:16" @This also will be my salvation, For a godless man may not come before His presence.

nasb@Job:3:17" @Listen carefully to my speech, And let my declaration fill your ears.

nasb@Job:3:19" @ Who will contend with me? For then I would be silent and die.

nasb@Job:3:20" @Only two things do not do to me, Then I will not hide from Your face-

nasb@Job:3:23" @ How many are my iniquities and sins? Make known to me my rebellion and my sin.

nasb@Job:3:24" @Why do You hide Your face And consider me Your enemy?

nasb@Job:3:3" @You also open Your eyes on him And bring him into judgment with Yourself.

nasb@Job:3:4" @ Who can make the clean out of the unclean? No one!

nasb@Job:3:5" @Since his days are determined, The number of his months is with You; And his limits You have set so that he cannot pass.

nasb@Job:3:12 @So man lies down and does not rise. Until the heavens are no longer, He will not awake nor be aroused out of his sleep.

nasb@Job:3:13" @Oh that You would hide me in Sheol, That You would conceal me until Your wrath returns to You, That You would set a limit for me and remember me!

nasb@Job:3:15" @You will call, and I will answer You; You will long for the work of Your hands.

nasb@Job:3:17" @My transgression is sealed up in a bag, And You wrap up my iniquity.

nasb@Job:3:19 @Water wears away stones, Its torrents wash away the dust of the earth; So You destroy man's hope.

nasb@Job:3:21" @His sons achieve honor, but he does not know it; Or they become insignificant, but he does not perceive it.

nasb@Job:3:22" @But his body pains him, And he mourns only for himself."

nasb@Job:3:15 @Then Eliphaz the Temanite responded,

nasb@Job:3:4" @Indeed, you do away with reverence And hinder meditation before God.

nasb@Job:3:6" @Your own mouth condemns you, and not I; And your own lips testify against you.

nasb@Job:3:10" @Both the gray-haired and the aged are among us, Older than your father.

nasb@Job:3:11" @Are the consolations of God too small for you, Even the word spoken gently with you?

nasb@Job:3:15" @Behold, He puts no trust in His holy ones, And the heavens are not pure in His sight;

nasb@Job:3:16 @How much less one who is detestable and corrupt, Man, who drinks iniquity like water!

nasb@Job:3:18 @What wise men have told, And have not concealed from their fathers,

nasb@Job:3:19 @To whom alone the land was given, And no alien passed among them.

nasb@Job:3:21" @Sounds of terror are in his ears; While at peace the destroyer comes upon him.

nasb@Job:3:25 @Because he has stretched out his hand against God And conducts himself arrogantly against the Almighty.

nasb@Job:3:26" @He rushes headlong at Him With his massive shield.

nasb@Job:3:28" @He has lived in desolate cities, In houses no one would inhabit, Which are destined to become ruins.

nasb@Job:3:34" @For the company of the godless is barren, And fire consumes the tents of the corrupt.

nasb@Job:3:35" @They conceive mischief and bring forth iniquity, And their mind prepares deception."

nasb@Job:3:10" @They have gaped at me with their mouth, They have slapped me on the cheek with contempt; They have massed themselves against me.

nasb@Job:3:13" @His arrows surround me. Without mercy He splits my kidneys open; He pours out my gall on the ground.

nasb@Job:3:16" @My face is flushed from weeping, And deep darkness is on my eyelids,

nasb@Job:3:19" @Even now, behold, my witness is in heaven, And my advocate is on high.

nasb@Job:3:2" @ Surely mockers are with me, And my eye gazes on their provocation.

nasb@Job:3:6" @But He has made me a byword of the people, And I am one at whom men spit.

nasb@Job:3:9" @Nevertheless the righteous will hold to his way, And he who has clean hands will grow stronger and stronger.

nasb@Job:3:10" @But come again all of you now, For I do not find a wise man among you.

nasb@Job:3:18 @Then Bildad the Shuhite responded,

nasb@Job:3:2" @How long will you hunt for words? Show understanding and then we can talk.

nasb@Job:3:4" @O you who tear yourself in your anger-- For your sake is the earth to be abandoned, Or the rock to be moved from its place?

nasb@Job:3:8" @For he is thrown into the net by his own feet, And he steps on the webbing.

nasb@Job:3:9" @A snare seizes him by the heel, And a trap snaps shut on him.

nasb@Job:3:10" @A noose for him is hidden in the ground, And a trap for him on the path.

nasb@Job:3:15" @There dwells in his tent nothing of his; Brimstone is scattered on his habitation.

nasb@Job:3:19" @He has no offspring or posterity among his people, Nor any survivor where he sojourned.

nasb@Job:3:19 @Then Job responded,

nasb@Job:3:2" @How long will you torment me And crush me with words?

nasb@Job:3:3" @These ten times you have insulted me; You are not ashamed to wrong me.

nasb@Job:3:6 @Know then that God has wronged me And has closed His net around me.

nasb@Job:3:8" @He has walled up my way so that I cannot pass, And He has put darkness on my paths.

nasb@Job:3:9" @He has stripped my honor from me And removed the crown from my head.

nasb@Job:3:10" @He breaks me down on every side, and I am gone; And He has uprooted my hope like a tree.

nasb@Job:3:11" @He has also kindled His anger against me And considered me as His enemy.

nasb@Job:3:15" @Those who live in my house and my maids consider me a stranger. I am a foreigner in their sight.

nasb@Job:3:20" @My bone clings to my skin and my flesh, And I have escaped only by the skin of my teeth.

nasb@Job:3:24" @That with an iron stylus and lead They were engraved in the rock forever!

nasb@Job:3:25" @As for me, I know that my Redeemer lives, And at the last He will take His stand on the earth.

nasb@Job:3:2" @Therefore my disquieting thoughts make me respond, Even because of my inward agitation.

nasb@Job:3:4" @Do you know this from of old, From the establishment of man on earth,

nasb@Job:3:8" @He flies away like a dream, and they cannot find him; Even like a vision of the night he is chased away.

nasb@Job:3:9" @The eye which saw him sees him no longer, And his place no longer beholds him.

nasb@Job:3:10" @His sons favor the poor, And his hands give back his wealth.

nasb@Job:3:11" @His bones are full of his youthful vigor, But it lies down with him in the dust.

nasb@Job:3:12" @Though evil is sweet in his mouth And he hides it under his tongue,

nasb@Job:3:16" @He sucks the poison of cobras; The viper's tongue slays him.

nasb@Job:3:17" @He does not look at the streams, The rivers flowing with honey and curds.

nasb@Job:3:22" @In the fullness of his plenty he will be cramped; The hand of everyone who suffers will come against him.

nasb@Job:3:23" @When he fills his belly, God will send His fierce anger on him And will rain it on him while he is eating.

nasb@Job:3:24" @He may flee from the iron weapon, But the bronze bow will pierce him.

nasb@Job:3:25" @It is drawn forth and comes out of his back, Even the glittering point from his gall. Terrors come upon him,

nasb@Job:3:26 @Complete darkness is held in reserve for his treasures, And unfanned fire will devour him; It will consume the survivor in his tent.

nasb@Job:3:28" @The increase of his house will depart; His possessions will flow away in the day of His anger.

nasb@Job:3:29" @This is the wicked man's portion from God, Even the heritage decreed to him by God."

nasb@Job:3:2" @Listen carefully to my speech, And let this be your way of consolation.

nasb@Job:3:5" @Look at me, and be astonished, And put your hand over your mouth.

nasb@Job:3:7" @Why do the wicked still live, Continue on, also become very powerful?

nasb@Job:3:9 @Their houses are safe from fear, And the rod of God is not on them.

nasb@Job:3:11" @They send forth their little ones like the flock, And their children skip about.

nasb@Job:3:17" @How often is the lamp of the wicked put out, Or does their calamity fall on them? Does God apportion destruction in His anger?

nasb@Job:3:19" @You say, ' God stores away a man's iniquity for his sons.' Let God repay him so that he may know it.

nasb@Job:3:21" @For what does he care for his household after him, When the number of his months is cut off?

nasb@Job:3:22" @Can anyone teach God knowledge, In that He judges those on high?

nasb@Job:3:23" @One dies in his full strength, Being wholly at ease and satisfied;

nasb@Job:3:24 @His sides are filled out with fat, And the marrow of his bones is moist,

nasb@Job:3:27" @Behold, I know your thoughts, And the plans by which you would wrong me.

nasb@Job:3:31" @Who will confront him with his actions, And who will repay him for what he has done?

nasb@Job:3:33" @The clods of the valley will gently cover him; Moreover, all men will follow after him, While countless ones go before him.

nasb@Job:3:22 @Then Eliphaz the Temanite responded,

nasb@Job:3:8" @But the earth belongs to the mighty man, And the honorable man dwells in it.

nasb@Job:3:14 @' Clouds are a hiding place for Him, so that He cannot see; And He walks on the vault of heaven.'

nasb@Job:3:16 @Who were snatched away before their time, Whose foundations were washed away by a river?

nasb@Job:3:20 @Saying, 'Truly our adversaries are cut off, And their abundance the fire has consumed.'

nasb@Job:3:22" @Please receive instruction from His mouth And establish His words in your heart.

nasb@Job:3:24 @And place your gold in the dust, And the gold of Ophir among the stones of the brooks,

nasb@Job:3:28" @You will also decree a thing, and it will be established for you; And light will shine on your ways.

nasb@Job:3:29" @When you are cast down, you will speak with confidence, And the humble person He will save.

nasb@Job:3:30" @He will deliver one who is not innocent, And he will be delivered through the cleanness of your hands."

nasb@Job:3:2" @Even today my complaint is rebellion; His hand is heavy despite my groaning.

nasb@Job:3:6" @Would He contend with me by the greatness of His power? No, surely He would pay attention to me.

nasb@Job:3:7" @There the upright would reason with Him; And I would be delivered forever from my Judge.

nasb@Job:3:9 @When He acts on the left, I cannot behold Him; He turns on the right, I cannot see Him.

nasb@Job:3:15" @Therefore, I would be dismayed at His presence; When I consider, I am terrified of Him.

nasb@Job:3:3" @They drive away the donkeys of the orphans; They take the widow's ox for a pledge.

nasb@Job:3:5" @Behold, as wild donkeys in the wilderness They go forth seeking food in their activity, As bread for their children in the desert.

nasb@Job:3:12" @From the city men groan, And the souls of the wounded cry out; Yet God does not pay attention to folly.

nasb@Job:3:18" @They are insignificant on the surface of the water; Their portion is cursed on the earth. They do not turn toward the vineyards.

nasb@Job:3:19" @Drought and heat consume the snow waters, So does Sheol those who have sinned.

nasb@Job:3:20" @A mother will forget him; The worm feeds sweetly till he is no longer remembered. And wickedness will be broken like a tree.

nasb@Job:3:21" @He wrongs the barren woman And does no good for the widow.

nasb@Job:3:22" @But He drags off the valiant by His power; He rises, but no one has assurance of life.

nasb@Job:3:23" @He provides them with security, and they are supported; And His eyes are on their ways.

nasb@Job:3:24" @They are exalted a little while, then they are gone; Moreover, they are brought low and like everything gathered up; Even like the heads of grain they are cut off.

nasb@Job:3:2" @ Dominion and awe belong to Him Who establishes peace in His heights.

nasb@Job:3:3" @Is there any number to His troops? And upon whom does His light not rise?

nasb@Job:3:5" @If even the moon has no brightness And the stars are not pure in His sight,

nasb@Job:3:6 @How much less man, that maggot, And the son of man, that worm!"

nasb@Job:3:26 @Then Job responded,

nasb@Job:3:3" @What counsel you have given to one without wisdom! What helpful insight you have abundantly provided!

nasb@Job:3:6" @Naked is Sheol before Him, And Abaddon has no covering.

nasb@Job:3:7" @He stretches out the north over empty space And hangs the earth on nothing.

nasb@Job:3:9" @He obscures the face of the full moon And spreads His cloud over it.

nasb@Job:3:10" @He has inscribed a circle on the surface of the waters At the boundary of light and darkness.

nasb@Job:3:27 @Then Job continued his discourse and said,

nasb@Job:3:3 @For as long as life is in me, And the breath of God is in my nostrils,

nasb@Job:3:4 @My lips certainly will not speak unjustly, Nor will my tongue mutter deceit.

nasb@Job:3:7" @May my enemy be as the wicked And my opponent as the unjust.

nasb@Job:3:9" @Will God hear his cry When distress comes upon him?

nasb@Job:3:10" @Will he take delight in the Almighty? Will he call on God at all times?

nasb@Job:3:11" @I will instruct you in the power of God; What is with the Almighty I will not conceal.

nasb@Job:3:13" @This is the portion of a wicked man from God, And the inheritance which tyrants receive from the Almighty.

nasb@Job:3:14" @Though his sons are many, they are destined for the sword; And his descendants will not be satisfied with bread.

nasb@Job:3:19" @He lies down rich, but never again; He opens his eyes, and it is no longer.

nasb@Job:3:21" @The east wind carries him away, and he is gone, For it whirls him away from his place.

nasb@Job:3:2" @Iron is taken from the dust, And copper is smelted from rock.

nasb@Job:3:4" @He sinks a shaft far from habitation, Forgotten by the foot; They hang and swing to and fro far from men.

nasb@Job:3:6" @Its rocks are the source of sapphires, And its dust contains gold.

nasb@Job:3:7" @The path no bird of prey knows, Nor has the falcon's eye caught sight of it.

nasb@Job:3:8" @The proud beasts have not trodden it, Nor has the fierce lion passed over it.

nasb@Job:3:9" @He puts his hand on the flint; He overturns the mountains at the base.

nasb@Job:3:16" @It cannot be valued in the gold of Ophir, In precious onyx, or sapphire.

nasb@Job:3:18" @Coral and crystal are not to be mentioned; And the acquisition of wisdom is above that of pearls.

nasb@Job:3:21" @Thus it is hidden from the eyes of all living And concealed from the birds of the sky.

nasb@Job:3:22" @ Abaddon and Death say, 'With our ears we have heard a report of it.'

nasb@Job:3:2" @Oh that I were as in months gone by, As in the days when God watched over me;

nasb@Job:3:3 @When His lamp shone over my head, And by His light I walked through darkness;

nasb@Job:3:9" @The princes stopped talking And put their hands on their mouths;

nasb@Job:3:10 @The voice of the nobles was hushed, And their tongue stuck to their palate.

nasb@Job:3:13" @The blessing of the one ready to perish came upon me, And I made the widow's heart sing for joy.

nasb@Job:3:14" @I put on righteousness, and it clothed me; My justice was like a robe and a turban.

nasb@Job:3:19 @'My root is spread out to the waters, And dew lies all night on my branch.

nasb@Job:3:22" @After my words they did not speak again, And my speech dropped on them.

nasb@Job:3:24" @I smiled on them when they did not believe, And the light of my face they did not cast down.

nasb@Job:3:25" @I chose a way for them and sat as chief, And dwelt as a king among the troops, As one who comforted the mourners.

nasb@Job:3:3" @From want and famine they are gaunt Who gnaw the dry ground by night in waste and desolation,

nasb@Job:3:7" @Among the bushes they cry out; Under the nettles they are gathered together.

nasb@Job:3:12" @On the right hand their brood arises; They thrust aside my feet and build up against me their ways of destruction.

nasb@Job:3:13" @They break up my path, They profit from my destruction; No one restrains them.

nasb@Job:3:14" @As through a wide breach they come, Amid the tempest they roll on.

nasb@Job:3:15" @ Terrors are turned against me; They pursue my honor as the wind, And my prosperity has passed away like a cloud.

nasb@Job:3:16" @And now my soul is poured out within me; Days of affliction have seized me.

nasb@Job:3:17" @At night it pierces my bones within me, And my gnawing pains take no rest.

nasb@Job:3:20" @I cry out to You for help, but You do not answer me; I stand up, and You turn Your attention against me.

nasb@Job:3:24" @Yet does not one in a heap of ruins stretch out his hand, Or in his disaster therefore cry out for help?

nasb@Job:3:25" @Have I not wept for the one whose life is hard? Was not my soul grieved for the needy?

nasb@Job:3:27" @I am seething within and cannot relax; Days of affliction confront me.

nasb@Job:3:29" @I have become a brother to jackals And a companion of ostriches.

nasb@Job:3:30" @My skin turns black on me, And my bones burn with fever.

nasb@Job:3:2" @And what is the portion of God from above Or the heritage of the Almighty from on high?

nasb@Job:3:12" @For it would be fire that consumes to Abaddon, And would uproot all my increase.

nasb@Job:3:15" @Did not He who made me in the womb make him, And the same one fashion us in the womb?

nasb@Job:3:17 @Or have eaten my morsel alone, And the orphan has not shared it

nasb@Job:3:19 @If I have seen anyone perish for lack of clothing, Or that the needy had no covering,

nasb@Job:3:24" @If I have put my confidence in gold, And called fine gold my trust,

nasb@Job:3:26 @If I have looked at the sun when it shone Or the moon going in splendor,

nasb@Job:3:29" @Have I rejoiced at the extinction of my enemy, Or exulted when evil befell him?

nasb@Job:3:31" @Have the men of my tent not said, 'Who can find one who has not been satisfied with his meat'?

nasb@Job:3:33" @Have I covered my transgressions like Adam, By hiding my iniquity in my bosom,

nasb@Job:3:34 @Because I feared the great multitude, And the contempt of families terrified me, And kept silent and did not go out of doors?

nasb@Job:3:35" @Oh that I had one to hear me! Behold, here is my signature; Let the Almighty answer me! And the indictment which my adversary has written,

nasb@Job:3:36 @Surely I would carry it on my shoulder, I would bind it to myself like a crown.

nasb@Job:3:39 @If I have eaten its fruit without money, Or have caused its owners to lose their lives,

nasb@Job:4:2 @But the anger of Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite, of the family of Ram burned; against Job his anger burned because he justified himself before God.

nasb@Job:4:3 @And his anger burned against his three friends because they had found no answer, and yet had condemned Job.

nasb@Job:4:6 @So Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite spoke out and said, "I am young in years and you are old; Therefore I was shy and afraid to tell you what I think.

nasb@Job:4:11" @Behold, I waited for your words, I listened to your reasonings, While you pondered what to say.

nasb@Job:4:12" @I even paid close attention to you; Indeed, there was no one who refuted Job, Not one of you who answered his words.

nasb@Job:4:15" @They are dismayed, they no longer answer; Words have failed them.

nasb@Job:4:16" @Shall I wait, because they do not speak, Because they stop and no longer answer?

nasb@Job:4:17" @I too will answer my share, I also will tell my opinion.

nasb@Job:4:18" @For I am full of words; The spirit within me constrains me.

nasb@Job:4:21" @Let me now be partial to no one, Nor flatter any man.

nasb@Job:4:22" @For I do not know how to flatter, Else my Maker would soon take me away.

nasb@Job:4:2" @Behold now, I open my mouth, My tongue in my mouth speaks.

nasb@Job:4:6" @Behold, I belong to God like you; I too have been formed out of the clay.

nasb@Job:4:7" @Behold, no fear of me should terrify you, Nor should my pressure weigh heavily on you.

nasb@Job:4:9 @'I am pure, without transgression; I am innocent and there is no guilt in me.

nasb@Job:4:14" @Indeed God speaks once, Or twice, yet no one notices it.

nasb@Job:4:15" @In a dream, a vision of the night, When sound sleep falls on men, While they slumber in their beds,

nasb@Job:4:16 @Then He opens the ears of men, And seals their instruction,

nasb@Job:4:17 @That He may turn man aside from his conduct, And keep man from pride;

nasb@Job:4:19" @Man is also chastened with pain on his bed, And with unceasing complaint in his bones;

nasb@Job:4:21" @His flesh wastes away from sight, And his bones which were not seen stick out.

nasb@Job:4:23" @If there is an angel as mediator for him, One out of a thousand, To remind a man what is right for him,

nasb@Job:4:31" @Pay attention, O Job, listen to me; Keep silent, and let me speak.

nasb@Job:4:34 @Then Elihu continued and said,

nasb@Job:4:4" @Let us choose for ourselves what is right; Let us know among ourselves what is good.

nasb@Job:4:6 @Should I lie concerning my right? My wound is incurable, though I am without transgression.'

nasb@Job:4:7" @What man is like Job, Who drinks up derision like water,

nasb@Job:4:10" @Therefore, listen to me, you men of understanding. Far be it from God to do wickedness, And from the Almighty to do wrong.

nasb@Job:4:13" @Who gave Him authority over the earth? And who has laid on Him the whole world?

nasb@Job:4:17" @Shall one who hates justice rule? And will you condemn the righteous mighty One,

nasb@Job:4:18 @Who says to a king, 'Worthless one,' To nobles, 'Wicked ones';

nasb@Job:4:21" @For His eyes are upon the ways of a man, And He sees all his steps.

nasb@Job:4:23" @For He does not need to consider a man further, That he should go before God in judgment.

nasb@Job:4:29 @When He keeps quiet, who then can condemn? And when He hides His face, who then can behold Him, That is, in regard to both nation and man?--

nasb@Job:4:31" @For has anyone said to God, 'I have borne chastisement; I will not offend anymore;

nasb@Job:4:32 @Teach me what I do not see; If I have done iniquity, I will not do it again'?

nasb@Job:4:33" @Shall He recompense on your terms, because you have rejected it? For you must choose, and not I; Therefore declare what you know.

nasb@Job:4:37 @'For he adds rebellion to his sin; He claps his hands among us, And multiplies his words against God.'"

nasb@Job:4:35 @Then Elihu continued and said,

nasb@Job:4:6" @If you have sinned, what do you accomplish against Him? And if your transgressions are many, what do you do to Him?

nasb@Job:4:8" @Your wickedness is for a man like yourself, And your righteousness is for a son of man.

nasb@Job:4:9" @Because of the multitude of oppressions they cry out; They cry for help because of the arm of the mighty.

nasb@Job:4:10" @But no one says, 'Where is God my Maker, Who gives songs in the night,

nasb@Job:4:15" @And now, because He has not visited in His anger, Nor has He acknowledged transgression well,

nasb@Job:4:36 @Then Elihu continued and said,

nasb@Job:4:4" @For truly my words are not false; One who is perfect in knowledge is with you.

nasb@Job:4:7" @He does not withdraw His eyes from the righteous; But with kings on the throne He has seated them forever, and they are exalted.

nasb@Job:4:8" @And if they are bound in fetters, And are caught in the cords of affliction,

nasb@Job:4:9 @Then He declares to them their work And their transgressions, that they have magnified themselves.

nasb@Job:4:10" @ He opens their ear to instruction, And commands that they return from evil.

nasb@Job:4:14" @They die in youth, And their life perishes among the cult prostitutes.

nasb@Job:4:15" @He delivers the afflicted in their affliction, And opens their ear in time of oppression.

nasb@Job:4:16" @Then indeed, He enticed you from the mouth of distress, Instead of it, a broad place with no constraint; And that which was set on your table was full of fatness.

nasb@Job:4:17" @But you were full of judgment on the wicked; Judgment and justice take hold of you.

nasb@Job:4:20" @Do not long for the night, When people vanish in their place.

nasb@Job:4:21" @Be careful, do not turn to evil, For you have preferred this to affliction.

nasb@Job:4:23" @Who has appointed Him His way, And who has said, ' You have done wrong'?

nasb@Job:4:28 @Which the clouds pour down, They drip upon man abundantly.

nasb@Job:4:29" @Can anyone understand the spreading of the clouds, The thundering of His pavilion?

nasb@Job:4:33" @Its noise declares His presence; The cattle also, concerning what is coming up.

nasb@Job:4:5" @God thunders with His voice wondrously, Doing great things which we cannot comprehend.

nasb@Job:4:6" @For to the snow He says, 'Fall on the earth,' And to the downpour and the rain, 'Be strong.'

nasb@Job:4:12" @It changes direction, turning around by His guidance, That it may do whatever He commands it On the face of the inhabited earth.

nasb@Job:4:13" @Whether for correction, or for His world, Or for lovingkindness, He causes it to happen.

nasb@Job:4:14" @Listen to this, O Job, Stand and consider the wonders of God.

nasb@Job:4:16" @Do you know about the layers of the thick clouds, The wonders of one perfect in knowledge,

nasb@Job:4:18" @Can you, with Him, spread out the skies, Strong as a molten mirror?

nasb@Job:4:4" @Where were you when I laid the foundation of the earth? Tell Me, if you have understanding,

nasb@Job:4:5 @Who set its measurements? Since you know. Or who stretched the line on it?

nasb@Job:4:6" @On what were its bases sunk? Or who laid its cornerstone,

nasb@Job:4:7 @When the morning stars sang together And all the sons of God shouted for joy?

nasb@Job:4:10 @And I placed boundaries on it And set a bolt and doors,

nasb@Job:4:24" @Where is the way that the light is divided, Or the east wind scattered on the earth?

nasb@Job:4:26 @To bring rain on a land without people, On a desert without a man in it,

nasb@Job:4:30" @Water becomes hard like stone, And the surface of the deep is imprisoned.

nasb@Job:4:31" @Can you bind the chains of the Pleiades, Or loose the cords of Orion?

nasb@Job:4:32" @Can you lead forth a constellation in its season, And guide the Bear with her satellites?

nasb@Job:4:39" @Can you hunt the prey for the lion, Or satisfy the appetite of the young lions,

nasb@Job:4:2" @Can you count the months they fulfill, Or do you know the time they give birth?

nasb@Job:4:4" @Their offspring become strong, they grow up in the open field; They leave and do not return to them.

nasb@Job:4:5" @Who sent out the wild donkey free? And who loosed the bonds of the swift donkey,

nasb@Job:4:9" @Will the wild ox consent to serve you, Or will he spend the night at your manger?

nasb@Job:4:13" @The ostriches' wings flap joyously With the pinion and plumage of love,

nasb@Job:4:14 @For she abandons her eggs to the earth And warms them in the dust,

nasb@Job:4:16" @She treats her young cruelly, as if they were not hers; Though her labor be in vain, she is unconcerned;

nasb@Job:4:18" @When she lifts herself on high, She laughs at the horse and his rider.

nasb@Job:4:21" @He paws in the valley, and rejoices in his strength; He goes out to meet the weapons.

nasb@Job:4:27" @Is it at your command that the eagle mounts up And makes his nest on high?

nasb@Job:4:28" @On the cliff he dwells and lodges, Upon the rocky crag, an inaccessible place.

nasb@Job:4:30" @His young ones also suck up blood; And where the slain are, there is he."

nasb@Job:4:2" @Will the faultfinder contend with the Almighty? Let him who reproves God answer it."

nasb@Job:4:4" @Behold, I am insignificant; what can I reply to You? I lay my hand on my mouth.

nasb@Job:4:5" @Once I have spoken, and I will not answer; Even twice, and I will add nothing more."

nasb@Job:4:8" @Will you really annul My judgment? Will you condemn Me that you may be justified?

nasb@Job:4:10" @ Adorn yourself with eminence and dignity, And clothe yourself with honor and majesty.

nasb@Job:4:11" @Pour out the overflowings of your anger, And look on everyone who is proud, and make him low.

nasb@Job:4:12" @Look on everyone who is proud, and humble him, And tread down the wicked where they stand.

nasb@Job:4:14" @Then I will also confess to you, That your own right hand can save you.

nasb@Job:4:18" @His bones are tubes of bronze; His limbs are like bars of iron.

nasb@Job:4:23" @If a river rages, he is not alarmed; He is confident, though the Jordan rushes to his mouth.

nasb@Job:4:24" @Can anyone capture him when he is on watch, With barbs can anyone pierce his noseNULL

nasb@Job:4:41" @Can you draw out Leviathan with a fishhook? Or press down his tongue with a cord?

nasb@Job:4:3" @Will he make many supplications to you, Or will he speak to you soft words?

nasb@Job:4:6" @Will the traders bargain over him? Will they divide him among the merchants?

nasb@Job:4:7" @Can you fill his skin with harpoons, Or his head with fishing spears?

nasb@Job:4:8" @Lay your hand on him; Remember the battle; you will not do it again!

nasb@Job:4:9" @Behold, your expectation is false; Will you be laid low even at the sight of him?

nasb@Job:4:10" @No one is so fierce that he dares to arouse him; Who then is he that can stand before Me?

nasb@Job:4:12" @I will not keep silence concerning his limbs, Or his mighty strength, or his orderly frame.

nasb@Job:4:15" @His strong scales are his pride, Shut up as with a tight seal.

nasb@Job:4:16" @One is so near to another That no air can come between them.

nasb@Job:4:17" @They are joined one to another; They clasp each other and cannot be separated.

nasb@Job:4:23" @The folds of his flesh are joined together, Firm on him and immovable.

nasb@Job:4:24" @His heart is as hard as a stone, Even as hard as a lower millstone.

nasb@Job:4:27" @He regards iron as straw, Bronze as rotten wood.

nasb@Job:4:28" @The arrow cannot make him flee; Slingstones are turned into stubble for him.

nasb@Job:4:30" @His underparts are like sharp potsherds; He spreads out like a threshing sledge on the mire.

nasb@Job:4:32" @Behind him he makes a wake to shine; One would think the deep to be gray-haired.

nasb@Job:4:33" @ Nothing on earth is like him, One made without fear.

nasb@Job:4:34" @He looks on everything that is high; He is king over all the sons of pride."

nasb@Job:4:3 @'Who is this that hides counsel without knowledge?' "Therefore I have declared that which I did not understand, Things too wonderful for me, which I did not know."

nasb@Job:4:11 @Then all his brothers and all his sisters and all who had known him before came to him, and they ate bread with him in his house; and they consoled him and comforted him for all the adversities that the LORD had brought on him. And each one gave him one piece of money, and each a ring of gold.

nasb@Job:4:12 @The LORD blessed the latter days of Job more than his beginning; and he had 14,000 sheep and 6,000 camels and 1,000 yoke of oxen and 1,000 female donkeys.

nasb@Job:4:13 @He had seven sons and three daughters.

nasb@Job:4:14 @He named the first Jemimah, and the second Keziah, and the third Keren-happuch.

nasb@Job:4:15 @In all the land no women were found so fair as Job's daughters; and their father gave them inheritance among their brothers.

nasb@Job:4:16 @After this, Job lived 140 years, and saw his sons and his grandsons, four generations.

nasb@Psalms:1:3 @He will be like a tree firmly planted by streams of water, Which yields its fruit in its season And its leaf does not wither; And in whatever he does, he prospers.

nasb@Psalms:2:1 @Why are the nations in an uproar And the peoples devising a vain thing?

nasb@Psalms:2:6" @But as for Me, I have installed My King Upon Zion, My holy mountain."

nasb@Psalms:2:7" @I will surely tell of the decree of the LORD- He said to Me, 'You are My Son, Today I have begotten You.

nasb@Psalms:2:9 @'You shall break them with a rod of iron, You shall shatter them like earthenware.'"

nasb@Psalms:2:12 @Do homage to the Son, that He not become angry, and you perish in the way, For His wrath may soon be kindled. How blessed are all who take refuge in Him!

nasb@Psalms:3:3 @But You, O LORD, are a shield about me, My glory, and the One who lifts my head.

nasb@Psalms:3:7 @Arise, O LORD; save me, O my God! For You have smitten all my enemies on the cheek; You have shattered the teeth of the wicked.

nasb@Psalms:3:8 @Salvation belongs to the LORD; Your blessing be upon Your people! Selah.

nasb@Psalms:4:2 @O sons of men, how long will my honor become a reproach? How long will you love what is worthless and aim at deception? Selah.

nasb@Psalms:4:4 @Tremble, and do not sin; Meditate in your heart upon your bed, and be still. Selah.

nasb@Psalms:4:6 @Many are saying, " Who will show us any good?" Lift up the light of Your countenance upon us, O LORD!

nasb@Psalms:4:8 @In peace I will both lie down and sleep, For You alone, O LORD, make me to dwell in safety.

nasb@Psalms:5:1 @Give ear to my words, O LORD, Consider my groaning.

nasb@Psalms:5:9 @There is nothing reliable in what they say; Their inward part is destruction itself. Their throat is an open grave; They flatter with their tongue.

nasb@Psalms:5:10 @Hold them guilty, O God; By their own devices let them fall! In the multitude of their transgressions thrust them out, For they are rebellious against You.

nasb@Psalms:6:2 @Be gracious to me, O LORD, for I am pining away; Heal me, O LORD, for my bones are dismayed.

nasb@Psalms:6:3 @And my soul is greatly dismayed; But You, O LORD-- how long?

nasb@Psalms:6:5 @For there is no mention of You in death; In Sheol who will give You thanks?

nasb@Psalms:6:9 @The LORD has heard my supplication, The LORD receives my prayer.

nasb@Psalms:7:2 @Or he will tear my soul like a lion, Dragging me away, while there is none to deliver.

nasb@Psalms:7:3 @O LORD my God, if I have done this, If there is injustice in my hands,

nasb@Psalms:7:7 @Let the assembly of the peoples encompass You, And over them return on high.

nasb@Psalms:7:11 @God is a righteous judge, And a God who has indignation every day.

nasb@Psalms:7:13 @He has also prepared for Himself deadly weapons; He makes His arrows fiery shafts.

nasb@Psalms:7:14 @Behold, he travails with wickedness, And he conceives mischief and brings forth falsehood.

nasb@Psalms:7:16 @His mischief will return upon his own head, And his violence will descend upon his own pate.

nasb@Psalms:9:4 @For You have maintained my just cause; You have sat on the throne judging righteously.

nasb@Psalms:9:5 @You have rebuked the nations, You have destroyed the wicked; You have blotted out their name forever and ever.

nasb@Psalms:9:7 @But the LORD abides forever; He has established His throne for judgment,

nasb@Psalms:9:15 @The nations have sunk down in the pit which they have made; In the net which they hid, their own foot has been caught.

nasb@Psalms:10:5 @His ways prosper at all times; Your judgments are on high, out of his sight; As for all his adversaries, he snorts at them.

nasb@Psalms:10:6 @He says to himself, " I will not be moved; Throughout all generations I will not be in adversity."

nasb@Psalms:10:7 @His mouth is full of curses and deceit and oppression; Under his tongue is mischief and wickedness.

nasb@Psalms:10:9 @He lurks in a hiding place as a lion in his lair; He lurks to catch the afflicted; He catches the afflicted when he draws him into his net.

nasb@Ecclesiastes:6:1 @A good name is better than a good ointment, And the day of one's death is better than the day of one's birth.

nasb@Ecclesiastes:6:5 @It is better to listen to the rebuke of a wise man Than for one to listen to the song of fools.

nasb@Ecclesiastes:6:7 @For oppression makes a wise man mad, And a bribe corrupts the heart.

nasb@Ecclesiastes:6:11 @Wisdom along with an inheritance is good And an advantage to those who see the sun.

nasb@Ecclesiastes:6:12 @For wisdom is protection just as money is protection, But the advantage of knowledge is that wisdom preserves the lives of its possessors.

nasb@Ecclesiastes:6:13 @Consider the work of God, For who is able to straighten what He has bent?

nasb@Ecclesiastes:6:14 @In the day of prosperity be happy, But in the day of adversity consider-- God has made the one as well as the other So that man will not discover anything that will be after him.

nasb@Ecclesiastes:6:15 @I have seen everything during my lifetime of futility; there is a righteous man who perishes in his righteousness and there is a wicked man who prolongs his life in his wickedness.

nasb@Ecclesiastes:6:18 @It is good that you grasp one thing and also not let go of the other; for the one who fears God comes forth with both of them.

nasb@Ecclesiastes:6:20 @Indeed, there is not a righteous man on earth who continually does good and who never sins.

nasb@Ecclesiastes:6:25 @I directed my mind to know, to investigate and to seek wisdom and an explanation, and to know the evil of folly and the foolishness of madness.

nasb@Ecclesiastes:6:26 @And I discovered more bitter than death the woman whose heart is snares and nets, whose hands are chains. One who is pleasing to God will escape from her, but the sinner will be captured by her.

nasb@Ecclesiastes:6:27" @Behold, I have discovered this," says the Preacher, "adding one thing to another to find an explanation,

nasb@Ecclesiastes:6:28 @which I am still seeking but have not found. I have found one man among a thousand, but I have not found a woman among all these.

nasb@Ecclesiastes:6:29" @Behold, I have found only this, that God made men upright, but they have sought out many devices."

nasb@Ecclesiastes:7:1 @Who is like the wise man and who knows the interpretation of a matter? A man's wisdom illumines him and causes his stern face to beam.

nasb@Ecclesiastes:7:6 @For there is a proper time and procedure for every delight, though a man's trouble is heavy upon him.

nasb@Ecclesiastes:7:7 @If no one knows what will happen, who can tell him when it will happen?

nasb@Ecclesiastes:7:9 @All this I have seen and applied my mind to every deed that has been done under the sun wherein a man has exercised authority over another man to his hurt.

nasb@Ecclesiastes:7:10 @So then, I have seen the wicked buried, those who used to go in and out from the holy place, and they are soon forgotten in the city where they did thus. This too is futility.

nasb@Ecclesiastes:7:11 @Because the sentence against an evil deed is not executed quickly, therefore the hearts of the sons of men among them are given fully to do evil.

nasb@Ecclesiastes:7:14 @There is futility which is done on the earth, that is, there are righteous men to whom it happens according to the deeds of the wicked. On the other hand, there are evil men to whom it happens according to the deeds of the righteous. I say that this too is futility.

nasb@Ecclesiastes:7:16 @When I gave my heart to know wisdom and to see the task which has been done on the earth (even though one should never sleep day or night),

nasb@Ecclesiastes:7:17 @and I saw every work of God, I concluded that man cannot discover the work which has been done under the sun. Even though man should seek laboriously, he will not discover; and though the wise man should say, "I know," he cannot discover.

nasb@Ecclesiastes:8:2 @It is the same for all. There is one fate for the righteous and for the wicked; for the good, for the clean and for the unclean; for the man who offers a sacrifice and for the one who does not sacrifice. As the good man is, so is the sinner; as the swearer is, so is the one who is afraid to swear.

nasb@Ecclesiastes:8:3 @This is an evil in all that is done under the sun, that there is one fate for all men. Furthermore, the hearts of the sons of men are full of evil and insanity is in their hearts throughout their lives. Afterwards they go to the dead.

nasb@Ecclesiastes:8:4 @For whoever is joined with all the living, there is hope; surely a live dog is better than a dead lion.

nasb@Ecclesiastes:8:5 @For the living know they will die; but the dead do not know anything, nor have they any longer a reward, for their memory is forgotten.

nasb@Ecclesiastes:8:6 @Indeed their love, their hate and their zeal have already perished, and they will no longer have a share in all that is done under the sun.

nasb@Ecclesiastes:8:8 @Let your clothes be white all the time, and let not oil be lacking on your head.

nasb@Ecclesiastes:8:12 @Moreover, man does not know his time- like fish caught in a treacherous net and birds trapped in a snare, so the sons of men are ensnared at an evil time when it suddenly falls on them.

nasb@Ecclesiastes:8:14 @There was a small city with few men in it and a great king came to it, surrounded it and constructed large siegeworks against it.

nasb@Ecclesiastes:8:15 @But there was found in it a poor wise man and he delivered the city by his wisdom. Yet no one remembered that poor man.

nasb@Ecclesiastes:8:17 @The words of the wise heard in quietness are better than the shouting of a ruler among fools.

nasb@Ecclesiastes:8:18 @Wisdom is better than weapons of war, but one sinner destroys much good.

nasb@Ecclesiastes:9:1 @Dead flies make a perfumer's oil stink, so a little foolishness is weightier than wisdom and honor.

nasb@Ecclesiastes:9:3 @Even when the fool walks along the road, his sense is lacking and he demonstrates to everyone that he is a fool.

nasb@Ecclesiastes:9:4 @If the ruler's temper rises against you, do not abandon your position, because composure allays great offenses.

nasb@Ecclesiastes:9:7 @I have seen slaves riding on horses and princes walking like slaves on the land.

nasb@Ecclesiastes:9:9 @He who quarries stones may be hurt by them, and he who splits logs may be endangered by them.

nasb@Ecclesiastes:9:12 @Words from the mouth of a wise man are gracious, while the lips of a fool consume him;

nasb@Ecclesiastes:9:19 @Men prepare a meal for enjoyment, and wine makes life merry, and money is the answer to everything.

nasb@Ecclesiastes:10:1 @Cast your bread on the surface of the waters, for you will find it after many days.

nasb@Ecclesiastes:10:2 @Divide your portion to seven, or even to eight, for you do not know what misfortune may occur on the earth.

nasb@Ecclesiastes:10:3 @If the clouds are full, they pour out rain upon the earth; and whether a tree falls toward the south or toward the north, wherever the tree falls, there it lies.

nasb@Ecclesiastes:10:5 @Just as you do not know the path of the wind and how bones are formed in the womb of the pregnant woman, so you do not know the activity of God who makes all things.

nasb@Ecclesiastes:11:2 @before the sun and the light, the moon and the stars are darkened, and clouds return after the rain;

nasb@Ecclesiastes:11:3 @in the day that the watchmen of the house tremble, and mighty men stoop, the grinding ones stand idle because they are few, and those who look through windows grow dim;

nasb@Ecclesiastes:11:4 @and the doors on the street are shut as the sound of the grinding mill is low, and one will arise at the sound of the bird, and all the daughters of song will sing softly.

nasb@Ecclesiastes:11:5 @Furthermore, men are afraid of a high place and of terrors on the road; the almond tree blossoms, the grasshopper drags himself along, and the caperberry is ineffective. For man goes to his eternal home while mourners go about in the street.

nasb@Ecclesiastes:11:9 @In addition to being a wise man, the Preacher also taught the people knowledge; and he pondered, searched out and arranged many proverbs.

nasb@Ecclesiastes:11:11 @The words of wise men are like goads, and masters of these collections are like well-driven nails; they are given by one Shepherd.

nasb@Ecclesiastes:11:12 @But beyond this, my son, be warned- the writing of many books is endless, and excessive devotion to books is wearying to the body.

nasb@Ecclesiastes:11:13 @The conclusion, when all has been heard, is- fear God and keep His commandments, because this applies to every person.
