Job:1:1 @ There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was blameless and upright, one who feared God, and turned away from evil.
rsv@Job:1:2 @ There were born to him seven sons and three daughters.
rsv@Job:1:3 @ He had seven thousand sheep, three thousand camels, five hundred yoke of oxen, and five hundred she-asses, and very many servants; so that this man was the greatest of all the people of the east.
rsv@Job:1:4 @ His sons used to go and hold a feast in the house of each on his day; and they would send and invite their three sisters to eat and drink with them.
rsv@Job:1:5 @ And when the days of the feast had run their course, Job would send and sanctify them, and he would rise early in the morning and offer burnt offerings according to the number of them all; for Job said, "It may be that my sons have sinned, and cursed God in their hearts." Thus Job did continually.
rsv@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.
rsv@Job:1:7 @ The LORD said to Satan, "Whence have you come?" Satan answered the LORD, "From going to and fro on the earth, and from walking up and down on it."
rsv@Job:1:8 @ And the LORD said to Satan, "Have you considered my servant Job, that there is none like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man, who fears God and turns away from evil?"
rsv@Job:1:9 @ Then Satan answered the LORD, "Does Job fear God for nought?
rsv@Job:1:10 @ Hast thou not put a hedge about him and his house and all that he has, on every side? Thou hast blessed the work of his hands, and his possessions have increased in the land.
rsv@Job:1:11 @ But put forth thy hand now, and touch all that he has, and he will curse thee to thy face."
rsv@Job:1:12 @ And the LORD said to Satan, "Behold, all that he has is in your power; only upon himself do not put forth your hand." So Satan went forth from the presence of the LORD.
rsv@Job:1:13 @ Now there was a day when his sons and daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother's house;
rsv@Job:1:14 @ and there came a messenger to Job, and said, "The oxen were plowing and the asses feeding beside them;
rsv@Job:1:15 @ and the Sabe'ans fell upon them and took them, and slew the servants with the edge of the sword; and I alone have escaped to tell you."
rsv@Job:1:16 @ While he was yet speaking, there came another, 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."
rsv@Job:1:17 @ While he was yet speaking, there came another, and said, "The Chalde'ans formed three companies, and made a raid upon the camels and took them, and slew the servants with the edge of the sword; and I alone have escaped to tell you."
rsv@Job:1:18 @ While he was yet speaking, there came another, and said, "Your sons and daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother's house;
rsv@Job:1:19 @ and behold, a great wind came across the wilderness, and struck the four corners of the house, and it fell upon the young people, and they are dead; and I alone have escaped to tell you."
rsv@Job:1:20 @ Then Job arose, and rent his robe, and shaved his head, and fell upon the ground, and worshiped.
rsv@Job:1:21 @ And he said, "Naked I came from my mother's womb, and naked shall I return; the LORD gave, and the LORD has taken away; blessed be the name of the LORD."
rsv@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.
rsv@Job:2:2 @ And the LORD said to Satan, "Whence have you come?" Satan answered the LORD, "From going to and fro on the earth, and from walking up and down on it."
rsv@Job:2:3 @ And the LORD said to Satan, "Have you considered my servant Job, that there is none like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man, who fears God and turns away from evil? He still holds fast his integrity, although you moved me against him, to destroy him without cause."
rsv@Job:2:4 @ Then Satan answered the LORD, "Skin for skin! All that a man has he will give for his life.
rsv@Job:2:5 @ But put forth thy hand now, and touch his bone and his flesh, and he will curse thee to thy face."
rsv@Job:2:6 @ And the LORD said to Satan, "Behold, he is in your power; only spare his life."
rsv@Job:2:7 @ So Satan went forth from the presence of the LORD, and afflicted Job with loathsome sores from the sole of his foot to the crown of his head.
rsv@Job:2:8 @ And he took a potsherd with which to scrape himself, and sat among the ashes.
rsv@Job:2:9 @ Then his wife said to him, "Do you still hold fast your integrity? Curse God, and die."
rsv@Job:2:10 @ But he said to her, "You speak as one of the foolish women would speak. Shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil?" In all this Job did not sin with his lips.
rsv@Job:2:11 @ Now when Job's three friends heard of all this evil that had come upon him, they came each from his own place, Eli'phaz the Te'manite, Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Na'amathite. They made an appointment together to come to condole with him and comfort him.
rsv@Job:2:12 @ And when they saw him from afar, they did not recognize him; and they raised their voices and wept; and they rent their robes and sprinkled dust upon their heads toward heaven.
rsv@Job:2:13 @ And they sat with him on the ground seven days and seven nights, and no one spoke a word to him, for they saw that his suffering was very great.
rsv@Job:3:1 @ After this Job opened his mouth and cursed the day of his birth.
rsv@Job:3:3 @ "Let the day perish wherein I was born, and the night which said, ` man-child is conceived.'
rsv@Job:3:5 @ Let gloom and deep darkness claim it. Let clouds dwell upon it; let the blackness of the day terrify it.
rsv@Job:3:6 @ That night--let thick darkness seize it! let it not rejoice among the days of the year, let it not come into the number of the months.
rsv@Job:3:8 @ Let those curse it who curse the day, who are skilled to rouse up Levi'athan.
rsv@Job:3:9 @ Let the stars of its dawn be dark; let it hope for light, but have none, nor see the eyelids of the morning;
rsv@Job:3:10 @ because it did not shut the doors of my mother's womb, nor hide trouble from my eyes.
rsv@Job:3:11 @ "Why did I not die at birth, come forth from the womb and expire?
rsv@Job:3:12 @ Why did the knees receive me? Or why the breasts, that I should suck?
rsv@Job:3:13 @ For then I should have lain down and been quiet; I should have slept; then I should have been at rest,
rsv@Job:3:14 @ with kings and counselors of the earth who rebuilt ruins for themselves,
rsv@Job:3:15 @ or with princes who had gold, who filled their houses with silver.
rsv@Job:3:16 @ Or why was I not as a hidden untimely birth, as infants that never see the light?
rsv@Job:3:17 @ There the wicked cease from troubling, and there the weary are at rest.
rsv@Job:3:18 @ There the prisoners are at ease together; they hear not the voice of the taskmaster.
rsv@Job:3:19 @ The small and the great are there, and the slave is free from his master.
rsv@Job:3:20 @ "Why is light given to him that is in misery, and life to the bitter in soul,
rsv@Job:3:22 @ who rejoice exceedingly, and are glad, when they find the grave?
rsv@Job:3:25 @ For the thing that I fear comes upon me, and what I dread befalls me.
rsv@Job:4:1 @ Then Eli'phaz the Te'manite answered:
rsv@Job:4:3 @ Behold, you have instructed many, and you have strengthened the weak hands.
rsv@Job:4:4 @ Your words have upheld him who was stumbling, and you have made firm the feeble knees.
rsv@Job:4:6 @ Is not your fear of God your confidence, and the integrity of your ways your hope?
rsv@Job:4:7 @ "Think now, who that was innocent ever perished? Or where were the upright cut off+?
rsv@Job:4:8 @ As I have seen, those who plow iniquity and sow trouble reap the same.
rsv@Job:4:9 @ By the breath of God they perish, and by the blast of his anger they are consumed.
rsv@Job:4:10 @ The roar of the lion, the voice of the fierce lion, the teeth of the young lions, are broken.
rsv@Job:4:11 @ The strong lion perishes for lack of prey, and the whelps of the lioness are scattered.
rsv@Job:4:12 @ "Now a word was brought to me stealthily, my ear received the whisper of it.
rsv@Job:4:13 @ Amid thoughts from visions of the night, when deep sleep falls on men,
rsv@Job:4:15 @ A spirit glided past my face; the hair of my flesh stood up.
rsv@Job:4:16 @ It stood still, but I could not discern its appearance. A form was before my eyes; there was silence, then I heard a voice:
rsv@Job:4:19 @ how much more those who dwell in houses of clay, whose foundation is in the dust, who are crushed before the moth.
rsv@Job:4:20 @ Between morning and evening they are destroyed; they perish for ever without any regarding it.
rsv@Job:4:21 @ If their tent-cord is plucked up within them, do they not die, and that without wisdom?'
rsv@Job:5:1 @ "Call now; is there any one who will answer you? To which of the holy ones will you turn?
rsv@Job:5:2 @ Surely vexation kills the fool, and jealousy slays the simple.
rsv@Job:5:3 @ I have seen the fool taking root, but suddenly I cursed his dwelling.
rsv@Job:5:4 @ His sons are far from safety, they are crushed in the gate, and there is no one to deliver them.
rsv@Job:5:5 @ His harvest the hungry eat, and he takes it even out of thorns; and the thirsty pant after his wealth.
rsv@Job:5:6 @ For affliction does not come from the dust, nor does trouble sprout from the ground;
rsv@Job:5:7 @ but man is born to trouble as the sparks fly upward.
rsv@Job:5:10 @ he gives rain upon the earth and sends waters upon the fields;
rsv@Job:5:12 @ He frustrates the devices of the crafty, so that their hands achieve no success.
rsv@Job:5:13 @ He takes the wise in their own craftiness; and the schemes of the wily are brought to a quick end.
rsv@Job:5:14 @ They meet with darkness in the daytime, and grope at noonday as in the night.
rsv@Job:5:15 @ But he saves the fatherless from their mouth, the needy from the hand of the mighty.
rsv@Job:5:16 @ So the poor have hope, and injustice shuts her mouth.
rsv@Job:5:17 @ "Behold, happy is the man whom God reproves; therefore despise not the chastening of the Almighty.
rsv@Job:5:19 @ He will deliver you from six troubles; in seven there shall no evil touch you.
rsv@Job:5:20 @ In famine he will redeem you from death, and in war from the power of the sword.
rsv@Job:5:21 @ You shall be hid from the scourge of the tongue, and shall not fear destruction when it comes.
rsv@Job:5:22 @ At destruction and famine you shall laugh, and shall not fear the beasts of the earth.
rsv@Job:5:23 @ For you shall be in league with the stones of the field, and the beasts of the field shall be at peace with you.
rsv@Job:5:25 @ You shall know also that your descendants shall be many, and your offspring as the grass of the earth.
rsv@Job:5:26 @ You shall come to your grave in ripe old age, as a shock of grain comes up to the threshing floor in its season.
rsv@Job:6:1 @ Then Job answered:
rsv@Job:6:2 @ "O that my vexation were weighed, and all my calamity laid in the balances!
rsv@Job:6:3 @ For then it would be heavier than the sand of the sea; therefore my words have been rash.
rsv@Job:6:4 @ For the arrows of the Almighty are in me; my spirit drinks their poison; the terrors of God are arrayed against me.
rsv@Job:6:5 @ Does the wild ass bray when he has grass, or the ox low over his fodder?
rsv@Job:6:6 @ Can that which is tasteless be eaten without salt, or is there any taste in the slime of the purslane?
rsv@Job:6:7 @ My appetite refuses to touch them; they are as food that is loathsome to me.
rsv@Job:6:10 @ This would be my consolation; I would even exult in pain unsparing; for I have not denied the words of the Holy One.
rsv@Job:6:12 @ Is my strength the strength of stones, or is my flesh bronze?
rsv@Job:6:14 @ "He who withholds kindness from a friend forsakes the fear of the Almighty.
rsv@Job:6:16 @ which are dark with ice, and where the snow hides itself.
rsv@Job:6:17 @ In time of heat they disappear; when it is hot, they vanish from their place.
rsv@Job:6:18 @ The caravans turn aside from their course; they go up into the waste, and perish.
rsv@Job:6:19 @ The caravans of Tema look, the travelers of Sheba hope.
rsv@Job:6:20 @ They are disappointed because they were confident; they come thither and are confounded.
rsv@Job:6:26 @ Do you think that you can reprove words, when the speech of a despairing man is wind?
rsv@Job:6:27 @ You would even cast lots over the fatherless, and bargain over your friend.
rsv@Job:6:30 @ Is there any wrong on my tongue? Cannot my taste discern calamity?
rsv@Job:7:1 @ "Has not man a hard service upon earth, and are not his days like the days of a hireling?
rsv@Job:7:2 @ Like a slave who longs for the shadow, and like a hireling who looks for his wages,
rsv@Job:7:4 @ When I lie down I say, `en I lie down I say, "When shall I arise?' But the night is long, and I am full of tossing till the dawn.
rsv@Job:7:5 @ My flesh is clothed with worms and dirt; my skin hardens, then breaks out afresh.
rsv@Job:7:6 @ My days are swifter than a weaver's shuttle, and come to their end without hope.
rsv@Job:7:8 @ The eye of him who sees me will behold me no more; while thy eyes are upon me, I shall be gone.
rsv@Job:7:9 @ As the cloud fades and vanishes, so he who goes down to Sheol does not come up;
rsv@Job:7:11 @ "Therefore I will not restrain my mouth; I will speak in the anguish of my spirit; I will complain in the bitterness of my soul.
rsv@Job:7:12 @ Am I the sea, or a sea monster, that thou settest a guard over me?
rsv@Job:7:14 @ then thou dost scare me with dreams and terrify me with visions,
rsv@Job:7:15 @ so that I would choose strangling and death rather than my bones.
rsv@Job:7:16 @ I loathe my life; I would not live for ever. Let me alone, for my days are a breath.
rsv@Job:7:20 @ If I sin, what do I do to thee, thou watcher of men? Why hast thou made me thy mark? Why have I become a burden to thee?
rsv@Job:7:21 @ Why dost thou not pardon my transgression and take away my iniquity? For now I shall lie in the earth; thou wilt seek me, but I shall not be."
rsv@Job:8:1 @ Then Bildad the Shuhite answered:
rsv@Job:8:2 @ "How long will you say these things, and the words of your mouth be a great wind?
rsv@Job:8:3 @ Does God pervert justice? Or does the Almighty pervert the right?
rsv@Job:8:4 @ If your children have sinned against him, he has delivered them into the power of their transgression.
rsv@Job:8:5 @ If you will seek God and make supplication to the Almighty,
rsv@Job:8:6 @ if you are pure and upright, surely then he will rouse himself for you and reward you with a rightful habitation.
rsv@Job:8:8 @ "For inquire, I pray you, of bygone ages, and consider what the fathers have found;
rsv@Job:8:10 @ Will they not teach you, and tell you, and utter words out of their understanding?
rsv@Job:8:11 @ "Can papyrus grow where there is no marsh? Can reeds flourish where there is no water?
rsv@Job:8:12 @ While yet in flower and not cut down, they wither before any other plant.
rsv@Job:8:13 @ Such are the paths of all who forget God; the hope of the godless man shall perish.
rsv@Job:8:16 @ He thrives before the sun, and his shoots spread over his garden.
rsv@Job:8:17 @ His roots twine about the stoneheap; he lives among the rocks.
rsv@Job:8:18 @ If he is destroyed from his place, then it will deny him, saying, `ng, "I have never seen you.'
rsv@Job:8:19 @ Behold, this is the joy of his way; and out of the earth others will spring.
rsv@Job:8:20 @ "Behold, God will not reject a blameless man, nor take the hand of evildoers.
rsv@Job:8:22 @ Those who hate you will be clothed with shame, and the tent of the wicked will be no more."
rsv@Job:9:1 @ Then Job answered:
rsv@Job:9:5 @ he who removes mountains, and they know it not, when he overturns them in his anger;
rsv@Job:9:6 @ who shakes the earth out of its place, and its pillars tremble;
rsv@Job:9:7 @ who commands the sun, and it does not rise; who seals up the stars;
rsv@Job:9:8 @ who alone stretched out the heavens, and trampled the waves of the sea;
rsv@Job:9:9 @ who made the Bear and Orion, the Plei'ades and the chambers of the south;
rsv@Job:9:13 @ "God will not turn back his anger; beneath him bowed the helpers of Rahab.
rsv@Job:9:14 @ How then can I answer him, choosing my words with him?
rsv@Job:9:21 @ I am blameless; I regard not myself; I loathe my life.
rsv@Job:9:22 @ It is all one; therefore I say, he destroys both the blameless and the wicked.
rsv@Job:9:23 @ When disaster brings sudden death, he mocks at the calamity of the innocent.
rsv@Job:9:24 @ The earth is given into the hand of the wicked; he covers the faces of its judges-- if it is not he, who then is it?
rsv@Job:9:25 @ "My days are swifter than a runner; they flee away, they see no good.
rsv@Job:9:26 @ They go by like skiffs of reed, like an eagle swooping on the prey.
rsv@Job:9:29 @ I shall be condemned; why then do I labor in vain?
rsv@Job:9:31 @ yet thou wilt plunge me into a pit, and my own clothes will abhor me.
rsv@Job:9:32 @ For he is not a man, as I am, that I might answer him, that we should come to trial together.
rsv@Job:9:33 @ There is no umpire between us, who might lay his hand upon us both.
rsv@Job:9:35 @ Then I would speak without fear of him, for I am not so in myself.
rsv@Job:10:1 @ "I loathe my life; I will give free utterance to my complaint; I will speak in the bitterness of my soul.
rsv@Job:10:3 @ Does it seem good to thee to oppress, to despise the work of thy hands and favor the designs of the wicked?
rsv@Job:10:5 @ Are thy days as the days of man, or thy years as man's years,
rsv@Job:10:7 @ although thou knowest that I am not guilty, and there is none to deliver out of thy hand?
rsv@Job:10:11 @ Thou didst clothe me with skin and flesh, and knit me together with bones and sinews.
rsv@Job:10:13 @ Yet these things thou didst hide in thy heart; I know that this was thy purpose.
rsv@Job:10:18 @ "Why didst thou bring me forth from the womb? Would that I had died before any eye had seen me,
rsv@Job:10:19 @ and were as though I had not been, carried from the womb to the grave.
rsv@Job:10:20 @ Are not the days of my life few? Let me alone, that I may find a little comfort
rsv@Job:10:21 @ before I go whence I shall not return, to the land of gloom and deep darkness,
rsv@Job:10:22 @ the land of gloom and chaos, where light is as darkness."
rsv@Job:11:1 @ Then Zophar the Na'amathite answered:
rsv@Job:11:6 @ and that he would tell you the secrets of wisdom! For he is manifold in understanding. Know then that God exacts of you less than your guilt deserves.
rsv@Job:11:7 @ "Can you find out the deep things of God? Can you find out the limit of the Almighty?
rsv@Job:11:9 @ Its measure is longer than the earth, and broader than the sea.
rsv@Job:11:15 @ Surely then you will lift up your face without blemish; you will be secure, and will not fear.
rsv@Job:11:17 @ And your life will be brighter than the noonday; its darkness will be like the morning.
rsv@Job:11:18 @ And you will have confidence, because there is hope; you will be protected and take your rest in safety.
rsv@Job:11:20 @ But the eyes of the wicked will fail; all way of escape will be lost to them, and their hope is to breathe their last."
rsv@Job:12:1 @ Then Job answered:
rsv@Job:12:2 @ "No doubt you are the people, and wisdom will die with you.
rsv@Job:12:3 @ But I have understanding as well as you; I am not inferior to you. Who does not know such things as these?
rsv@Job:12:5 @ In the thought of one who is at ease there is contempt for misfortune; it is ready for those whose feet slip.
rsv@Job:12:6 @ The tents of robbers are at peace, and those who provoke God are secure, who bring their god in their hand.
rsv@Job:12:7 @ "But ask the beasts, and they will teach you; the birds of the air, and they will tell you;
rsv@Job:12:8 @ or the plants of the earth, and they will teach you; and the fish of the sea will declare to you.
rsv@Job:12:9 @ Who among all these does not know that the hand of the LORD has done this?
rsv@Job:12:10 @ In his hand is the life of every living thing and the breath of all mankind.
rsv@Job:12:11 @ Does not the ear try words as the palate tastes food?
rsv@Job:12:12 @ Wisdom is with the aged, and understanding in length of days.
rsv@Job:12:15 @ If he withholds the waters, they dry up; if he sends them out, they overwhelm the land.
rsv@Job:12:16 @ With him are strength and wisdom; the deceived and the deceiver are his.
rsv@Job:12:18 @ He looses the bonds of kings, and binds a waistcloth on their loins.
rsv@Job:12:19 @ He leads priests away stripped, and overthrows the mighty.
rsv@Job:12:20 @ He deprives of speech those who are trusted, and takes away the discernment of the elders.
rsv@Job:12:21 @ He pours contempt on princes, and looses the belt of the strong.
rsv@Job:12:22 @ He uncovers the deeps out of darkness, and brings deep darkness to light.
rsv@Job:12:23 @ He makes nations great, and he destroys them: he enlarges nations, and leads them away.
rsv@Job:12:24 @ He takes away understanding from the chiefs of the people of the earth, and makes them wander in a pathless waste.
rsv@Job:12:25 @ They grope in the dark without light; and he makes them stagger like a drunken man.
rsv@Job:13:3 @ But I would speak to the Almighty, and I desire to argue my case with God.
rsv@Job:13:6 @ Hear now my reasoning, and listen to the pleadings of my lips.
rsv@Job:13:8 @ Will you show partiality toward him, will you plead the case for God?
rsv@Job:13:11 @ Will not his majesty terrify you, and the dread of him fall upon you?
rsv@Job:13:19 @ Who is there that will contend with me? For then I would be silent and die.
rsv@Job:13:20 @ Only grant two things to me, then I will not hide myself from thy face:
rsv@Job:13:21 @ withdraw thy hand far from me, and let not dread of thee terrify me.
rsv@Job:13:22 @ Then call, and I will answer; or let me speak, and do thou reply to me.
rsv@Job:13:26 @ For thou writest bitter things against me, and makest me inherit the iniquities of my youth.
rsv@Job:13:27 @ Thou puttest my feet in the stocks, and watchest all my paths; thou settest a bound to the soles of my feet.
rsv@Job:14:2 @ He comes forth like a flower, and withers; he flees like a shadow, and continues not.
rsv@Job:14:3 @ And dost thou open thy eyes upon such a one and bring him into judgment with thee?
rsv@Job:14:4 @ Who can bring a clean thing out of an unclean? There is not one.
rsv@Job:14:5 @ Since his days are determined, and the number of his months is with thee, and thou hast appointed his bounds that he cannot pass,
rsv@Job:14:7 @ "For there is hope for a tree, if it be cut down, that it will sprout again, and that its shoots will not cease.
rsv@Job:14:8 @ Though its root grow old in the earth, and its stump die in the ground,
rsv@Job:14:9 @ yet at the scent of water it will bud and put forth branches like a young plant.
rsv@Job:14:10 @ But man dies, and is laid low; man breathes his last, and where is he?
rsv@Job:14:12 @ so man lies down and rises not again; till the heavens are no more he will not awake, or be roused out of his sleep.
rsv@Job:14:14 @ If a man die, shall he live again? All the days of my service I would wait, till my release should come.
rsv@Job:14:15 @ Thou wouldest call, and I would answer thee; thou wouldest long for the work of thy hands.
rsv@Job:14:16 @ For then thou wouldest number my steps, thou wouldest not keep watch over my sin;
rsv@Job:14:18 @ "But the mountain falls and crumbles away, and the rock is removed from its place;
rsv@Job:14:19 @ the waters wear away the stones; the torrents wash away the soil of the earth; so thou destroyest the hope of man.
rsv@Job:14:21 @ His sons come to honor, and he does not know it; they are brought low, and he perceives it not.
rsv@Job:14:22 @ He feels only the pain of his own body, and he mourns only for himself."
rsv@Job:15:1 @ Then Eli'phaz the Te'manite answered:
rsv@Job:15:2 @ "Should a wise man answer with windy knowledge, and fill himself with the east wind?
rsv@Job:15:4 @ But you are doing away with the fear of God, and hindering meditation before God.
rsv@Job:15:5 @ For your iniquity teaches your mouth, and you choose the tongue of the crafty.
rsv@Job:15:7 @ "Are you the first man that was born? Or were you brought forth before the hills?
rsv@Job:15:8 @ Have you listened in the council of God? And do you limit wisdom to yourself+?
rsv@Job:15:10 @ Both the gray-haired and the aged are among us, older than your father.
rsv@Job:15:11 @ Are the consolations of God too small for you, or the word that deals gently with you?
rsv@Job:15:15 @ Behold, God puts no trust in his holy ones, and the heavens are not clean in his sight;
rsv@Job:15:18 @ (what wise men have told, and their fathers have not hidden,
rsv@Job:15:19 @ to whom alone the land was given, and no stranger passed among them).
rsv@Job:15:20 @ The wicked man writhes in pain all his days, through all the years that are laid up for the ruthless.
rsv@Job:15:21 @ Terrifying sounds are in his ears; in prosperity the destroyer will come upon him.
rsv@Job:15:22 @ He does not believe that he will return out of darkness, and he is destined for the sword.
rsv@Job:15:24 @ distress and anguish terrify him; they prevail against him, like a king prepared for battle.
rsv@Job:15:25 @ Because he has stretched forth his hand against God, and bids defiance to the Almighty,
rsv@Job:15:27 @ because he has covered his face with his fat, and gathered fat upon his loins,
rsv@Job:15:29 @ he will not be rich, and his wealth will not endure, nor will he strike root in the earth;
rsv@Job:15:30 @ he will not escape from darkness; the flame will dry up his shoots, and his blossom will be swept away by the wind.
rsv@Job:15:33 @ He will shake off his unripe grape, like the vine, and cast off his blossom, like the olive tree.
