rsv@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:1:3 @ 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:1:7 @ 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:1:14 @ 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:1:19 @ 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:2:2 @ 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:2:7 @ 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:2:12 @ 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: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:3:8 @ Let those curse it who curse the day, who are skilled to rouse up Levi'athan.

rsv@Job:3:15 @ or with princes who had gold, who filled their houses with silver.

rsv@Job:3:17 @ There the wicked cease from troubling, and there the weary are at rest.

rsv@Job:3:22 @ who rejoice exceedingly, and are glad, when they find the grave?

rsv@Job:3:23 @ Why is light given to a man whose way is hid, whom God has hedged in?

rsv@Job:3:24 @ For my sighing comes as my bread, and my groanings are poured out like water.

rsv@Job:4:1 @ Then Eli'phaz the Te'manite answered:

rsv@Job:4:2 @ "If one ventures a word with you, will you be offended? Yet who can keep from speaking?

rsv@Job:4:3 @ Behold, you have instructed many, and you have strengthened the weak hands.

rsv@Job:4:5 @ But now it has come to you, and you are impatient; it touches you, and you are dismayed.

rsv@Job:4:7 @ "Think now, who that was innocent ever perished? Or where were the upright cut off+?

rsv@Job:4:9 @ By the breath of God they perish, and by the blast of his anger they are consumed.

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:4:15 @ A spirit glided past my face; the hair of my flesh stood up.

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:5:3 @ 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:5:11 @ he sets on high those who are lowly, and those who mourn are lifted to safety.

rsv@Job:5:15 @ But he saves the fatherless from their mouth, the needy from the hand of the mighty.

rsv@Job:5:20 @ In famine he will redeem you from death, and in war from the power of the sword.

rsv@Job:5:27 @ Lo, this we have searched out; it is true. Hear, and know it for your good."

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:6:4 @ For the arrows of the Almighty are in me; my spirit drinks their poison; the terrors of God are arrayed against me.

rsv@Job:6:10 @ 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:6:15 @ My brethren are treacherous as a torrent-bed, as freshets that pass away,

rsv@Job:6:20 @ They are disappointed because they were confident; they come thither and are confounded.

rsv@Job:6:24 @ "Teach me, and I will be silent; make me understand how I have erred.

rsv@Job:6:28 @ "But now, be pleased to look at me; for I will not lie to your face.

rsv@Job:7:3 @ so I am allotted months of emptiness, and nights of misery are apportioned to me.

rsv@Job:7:5 @ My flesh is clothed with worms and dirt; my skin hardens, then breaks out afresh.

rsv@Job:7:13 @ When I say, `en I say, "My bed will comfort me, my couch will ease my complaint,'

rsv@Job:8:1 @ Then Bildad the Shuhite answered:

rsv@Job:8:4 @ If your children have sinned against him, he has delivered them into the power of their transgression.

rsv@Job:8:11 @ "Can papyrus grow where there is no marsh? Can reeds flourish where there is no water?

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:8:22 @ 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:9:3 @ If one wished to contend with him, one could not answer him once in a thousand times.

rsv@Job:9:4 @ He is wise in heart, and mighty in strength --who has hardened himself against him, and succeeded?--

rsv@Job:9:8 @ who alone stretched out the heavens, and trampled the waves of the sea;

rsv@Job:9:13 @ "God will not turn back his anger; beneath him bowed the helpers of Rahab.

rsv@Job:9:16 @ If I summoned him and he answered me, I would not believe that he was listening to my voice.

rsv@Job:9:22 @ It is all one; therefore I say, he destroys both the blameless and the wicked.

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:9:26 @ 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: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:10:8 @ Thy hands fashioned and made me; and now thou dost turn about and destroy me.

rsv@Job:10:12 @ Thou hast granted me life and steadfast love; and thy care has preserved my spirit.

rsv@Job:10:15 @ If I am wicked, woe to me! If I am righteous, I cannot lift up my head, for I am filled with disgrace and look upon my affliction.

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:11:1 @ Then Zophar the Na'amathite answered:

rsv@Job:11:2 @ "Should a multitude of words go unanswered, and a man full of talk be vindicated?

rsv@Job:11:14 @ If iniquity is in your hand, put it far away, and let not wickedness dwell in your tents.

rsv@Job:11:16 @ You will forget your misery; you will remember it as waters that have passed away.

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:12:4 @ I am a laughingstock to my friends; I, who called upon God and he answered me, a just and blameless man, am a laughingstock.

rsv@Job:12:12 @ Wisdom is with the aged, and understanding in length of days.

rsv@Job:12:16 @ With him are strength and wisdom; the deceived and the deceiver are his.

rsv@Job:12:17 @ He leads counselors away stripped, and judges he makes fools.

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:13:18 @ Behold, I have prepared my case; I know that I shall be vindicated.

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:14:12 @ 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:14:17 @ my transgression would be sealed up in a bag, and thou wouldest cover over my iniquity.

rsv@Job:14:18 @ "But the mountain falls and crumbles away, and the rock is removed from its place;

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:15:8 @ 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:15:19 @ 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:15:22 @ 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:15:26 @ running stubbornly against him with a thick-bossed shield;

rsv@Job:15:27 @ because he has covered his face with his fat, and gathered fat upon his loins,

rsv@Job:15:28 @ and has lived in desolate cities, in houses which no man should inhabit, which were destined to become heaps of ruins;

rsv@Job:16:1 @ Then Job answered:

rsv@Job:16:6 @ "If I speak, my pain is not assuaged, and if I forbear, how much of it leaves me?

rsv@Job:16:8 @ And he has shriveled me up, which is a witness against me; and my leanness has risen up against me, it testifies to my face.

rsv@Job:16:9 @ He has torn me in his wrath, and hated me; he has gnashed his teeth at me; my adversary sharpens his eyes against me.

rsv@Job:16:10 @ Men have gaped at me with their mouth, they have struck me insolently upon the cheek, they mass themselves together against me.

rsv@Job:16:11 @ God gives me up to the ungodly, and casts me into the hands of the wicked.

rsv@Job:16:12 @ I was at ease, and he broke me asunder; he seized me by the neck and dashed me to pieces; he set me up as his target,

rsv@Job:16:15 @ I have sewed sackcloth upon my skin, and have laid my strength in the dust.

rsv@Job:16:16 @ My face is red with weeping, and on my eyelids is deep darkness;

rsv@Job:17:3 @ "Lay down a pledge for me with thyself; who is there that will give surety for me?

rsv@Job:17:4 @ Since thou hast closed their minds to understanding, therefore thou wilt not let them triumph.

rsv@Job:17:8 @ Upright men are appalled at this, and the innocent stirs himself up against the godless.

rsv@Job:18:1 @ Then Bildad the Shuhite answered:

rsv@Job:18:3 @ Why are we counted as cattle? Why are we stupid in your sight?

rsv@Job:18:4 @ You who tear yourself in your anger, shall the earth be forsaken for you, or the rock be removed out of its place?

rsv@Job:18:5 @ "Yea, the light of the wicked is put out, and the flame of his fire does not shine.

rsv@Job:18:7 @ His strong steps are shortened and his own schemes throw him down.

rsv@Job:18:13 @ By disease his skin is consumed, the first-born of death consumes his limbs.

rsv@Job:18:14 @ He is torn from the tent in which he trusted, and is brought to the king of terrors.

rsv@Job:18:15 @ In his tent dwells that which is none of his; brimstone is scattered upon his habitation.

rsv@Job:18:19 @ He has no offspring or descendant among his people, and no survivor where he used to live.

rsv@Job:18:20 @ They of the west are appalled at his day, and horror seizes them of the east.

rsv@Job:19:1 @ Then Job answered:

rsv@Job:19:3 @ These ten times you have cast reproach upon me; are you not ashamed to wrong me?

rsv@Job:19:4 @ And even if it be true that I have erred, my error remains with myself.

rsv@Job:19:5 @ If indeed you magnify yourselves against me, and make my humiliation an argument against me,

rsv@Job:19:6 @ know then that God has put me in the wrong, and closed his net about me.

rsv@Job:19:7 @ Behold, I cry out, `hold, I cry out, "Violence!' but I am not answered; I call aloud, but there is no justice.

rsv@Job:19:8 @ He has walled up my way, so that I cannot pass, and he has set darkness upon my paths.

rsv@Job:19:9 @ He has stripped from me my glory, and taken the crown from my head.

rsv@Job:19:10 @ He breaks me down on every side, and I am gone, and my hope has he pulled up like a tree.

rsv@Job:19:11 @ He has kindled his wrath against me, and counts me as his adversary.

rsv@Job:19:13 @ "He has put my brethren far from me, and my acquaintances are wholly estranged from me.

rsv@Job:19:14 @ My kinsfolk and my close friends have failed me;

rsv@Job:19:19 @ All my intimate friends abhor me, and those whom I loved have turned against me.

rsv@Job:19:20 @ My bones cleave to my skin and to my flesh, and I have escaped by the skin of my teeth.

rsv@Job:19:21 @ Have pity on me, have pity on me, O you my friends, for the hand of God has touched me!

rsv@Job:19:22 @ Why do you, like God, pursue me? Why are you not satisfied with my flesh?

rsv@Job:19:23 @ "Oh that my words were written! Oh that they were inscribed in a book!

rsv@Job:19:25 @ For I know that my Redeemer lives, and at last he will stand upon the earth;

rsv@Job:19:26 @ and after my skin has been thus destroyed, then from my flesh I shall see God,

rsv@Job:20:1 @ Then Zophar the Na'amathite answered:

rsv@Job:20:4 @ Do you not know this from of old, since man was placed upon earth,

rsv@Job:20:5 @ that the exulting of the wicked is short, and the joy of the godless but for a moment?

rsv@Job:20:8 @ He will fly away like a dream, and not be found; he will be chased away like a vision of the night.

rsv@Job:20:12 @ "Though wickedness is sweet in his mouth, though he hides it under his tongue,

rsv@Job:20:14 @ yet his food is turned in his stomach; it is the gall of asps within him.

rsv@Job:20:19 @ For he has crushed and abandoned the poor, he has seized a house which he did not build.

rsv@Job:20:20 @ "Because his greed knew no rest, he will not save anything in which he delights.

rsv@Job:20:26 @ Utter darkness is laid up for his treasures; a fire not blown upon will devour him; what is left in his tent will be consumed.

rsv@Job:20:28 @ The possessions of his house will be carried away, dragged off in the day of God's wrath.

rsv@Job:20:29 @ This is the wicked man's portion from God, the heritage decreed for him by God."

rsv@Job:21:1 @ Then Job answered:

rsv@Job:21:5 @ Look at me, and be appalled, and lay your hand upon your mouth.

rsv@Job:21:6 @ When I think of it I am dismayed, and shuddering seizes my flesh.

rsv@Job:21:7 @ Why do the wicked live, reach old age, and grow mighty in power?

rsv@Job:21:8 @ Their children are established in their presence, and their offspring before their eyes.

rsv@Job:21:10 @ Their bull breeds without fail; their cow calves, and does not cast her calf.

rsv@Job:21:14 @ They say to God, `ey say to God, "Depart from us! We do not desire the knowledge of thy ways.

rsv@Job:21:16 @ Behold, is not their prosperity in their hand? The counsel of the wicked is far from me.

rsv@Job:21:17 @ "How often is it that the lamp of the wicked is put out? That their calamity comes upon them? That God distributes pains in his anger?

rsv@Job:21:22 @ Will any teach God knowledge, seeing that he judges those that are on high?

rsv@Job:21:25 @ Another dies in bitterness of soul, never having tasted of good.

rsv@Job:21:28 @ For you say, `r you say, "Where is the house of the prince? Where is the tent in which the wicked dwelt?'

rsv@Job:21:29 @ Have you not asked those who travel the roads, and do you not accept their testimony

rsv@Job:21:30 @ that the wicked man is spared in the day of calamity, that he is rescued in the day of wrath?

rsv@Job:22:1 @ Then Eli'phaz the Te'manite answered:

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:22:8 @ 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:22:11 @ your light is darkened, so that you cannot see, and a flood of water covers you.

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:22:18 @ Yet he filled their houses with good things-- but the counsel of the wicked is far from me.

rsv@Job:22:20 @ saying, `f, and what they left the fire has consumed.'

rsv@Job:22:24 @ if you lay gold in the dust, and gold of Ophir among the stones of the torrent bed,

rsv@Job:22:28 @ You will decide on a matter, and it will be established for you, and light will shine on your ways.

rsv@Job:22:30 @ He delivers the innocent man; you will be delivered through the cleanness of your hands."

rsv@Job:23:1 @ Then Job answered:

rsv@Job:23:6 @ Would he contend with me in the greatness of his power? No; he would give heed to me.

rsv@Job:23:7 @ There an upright man could reason with him, and I should be acquitted for ever by my judge.

rsv@Job:23:10 @ But he knows the way that I take; when he has tried me, I shall come forth as gold.

rsv@Job:23:11 @ My foot has held fast to his steps; I have kept his way and have not turned aside.

rsv@Job:23:12 @ I have not departed from the commandment of his lips; I have treasured in my bosom the words of his mouth.

rsv@Job:23:15 @ Therefore I am terrified at his presence; when I consider, I am in dread of him.

rsv@Job:23:16 @ God has made my heart faint; the Almighty has terrified me;

rsv@Job:23:17 @ for I am hemmed in by darkness, and thick darkness covers my face.

rsv@Job:24:3 @ They drive away the ass of the fatherless; they take the widow's ox for a pledge.

rsv@Job:24:6 @ They gather their fodder in the field and they glean the vineyard of the wicked man.

rsv@Job:24:7 @ They lie all night naked, without clothing, and have no covering in the cold.

rsv@Job:24:9 @ (There are those who snatch the fatherless child from the breast, and take in pledge the infant of the poor.)

rsv@Job:24:10 @ They go about naked, without clothing; hungry, they carry the sheaves;

rsv@Job:24:11 @ among the olive rows of the wicked they make oil; they tread the wine presses, but suffer thirst.

rsv@Job:24:12 @ From out of the city the dying groan, and the soul of the wounded cries for help; yet God pays no attention to their prayer.

rsv@Job:24:13 @ "There are those who rebel against the light, who are not acquainted with its ways, and do not stay in its paths.

rsv@Job:24:14 @ The murderer rises in the dark, that he may kill the poor and needy; and in the night he is as a thief.

rsv@Job:24:18 @ "You say, "They are swiftly carried away upon the face of the waters; their portion is cursed in the land; no treader turns toward their vineyards.

rsv@Job:24:19 @ Drought and heat snatch away the snow waters; so does Sheol those who have sinned.

rsv@Job:24:20 @ The squares of the town forget them; their name is no longer remembered; so wickedness is broken like a tree.'

rsv@Job:24:21 @ "They feed on the barren childless woman, and do no good to the widow.

rsv@Job:24:23 @ He gives them security, and they are supported; and his eyes are upon their ways.

rsv@Job:24:24 @ They are exalted a little while, and then are gone; they wither and fade like the mallow; they are cut off like the heads of grain.

rsv@Job:25:1 @ Then Bildad the Shuhite answered:

rsv@Job:26:1 @ Then Job answered:

rsv@Job:26:2 @ "How you have helped him who has no power! How you have saved the arm that has no strength!

rsv@Job:26:3 @ How you have counseled him who has no wisdom, and plentifully declared sound knowledge!

rsv@Job:26:4 @ With whose help have you uttered words, and whose spirit has come forth from you?

rsv@Job:26:6 @ Sheol is naked before God, and Abaddon has no covering.

rsv@Job:26:10 @ He has described a circle upon the face of the waters at the boundary between light and darkness.

rsv@Job:26:11 @ The pillars of heaven tremble, and are astounded at his rebuke.

rsv@Job:26:12 @ By his power he stilled the sea; by his understanding he smote Rahab.

rsv@Job:26:13 @ By his wind the heavens were made fair; his hand pierced the fleeing serpent.

rsv@Job:27:7 @ "Let my enemy be as the wicked, and let him that rises up against me be as the unrighteous.

rsv@Job:27:13 @ "This is the portion of a wicked man with God, and the heritage which oppressors receive from the Almighty:

rsv@Job:27:14 @ If his children are multiplied, it is for the sword; and his offspring have not enough to eat.

rsv@Job:27:19 @ He goes to bed rich, but will do so no more; he opens his eyes, and his wealth is gone.

rsv@Job:28:2 @ Iron is taken out of the earth, and copper is smelted from the ore.

rsv@Job:28:5 @ As for the earth, out of it comes bread; but underneath it is turned up as by fire.

rsv@Job:28:8 @ The proud beasts have not trodden it; the lion has not passed over it.

rsv@Job:28:15 @ It cannot be gotten for gold, and silver cannot be weighed as its price.

rsv@Job:28:16 @ It cannot be valued in the gold of Ophir, in precious onyx or sapphire.

rsv@Job:28:17 @ Gold and glass cannot equal it, nor can it be exchanged for jewels of fine gold.

rsv@Job:28:19 @ The topaz of Ethiopia cannot compare with it, nor can it be valued in pure gold.

rsv@Job:28:21 @ It is hid from the eyes of all living, and concealed from the birds of the air.

rsv@Job:28:25 @ When he gave to the wind its weight, and meted out the waters by measure;

rsv@Job:28:27 @ then he saw it and declared it; he established it, and searched it out.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:2:5 @ I made myself gardens and parks, and planted in them all kinds of fruit trees.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:2:20 @ So I turned about and gave my heart up to despair over all the toil of my labors under the sun,

rsv@Ecclesiastes:2:21 @ because sometimes a man who has toiled with wisdom and knowledge and skill must leave all to be enjoyed by a man who did not toil for it. This also is vanity and a great evil.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:2:26 @ For to the man who pleases him God gives wisdom and knowledge and joy; but to the sinner he gives the work of gathering and heaping, only to give to one who pleases God. This also is vanity and a striving after wind.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:3:14 @ I know that whatever God does endures for ever; nothing can be added to it, nor anything taken from it; God has made it so, in order that men should fear before him.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:3:16 @ Moreover I saw under the sun that in the place of justice, even there was wickedness, and in the place of righteousness, even there was wickedness.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:4:1 @ Again I saw all the oppressions that are practiced under the sun. And behold, the tears of the oppressed, and they had no one to comfort them! On the side of their oppressors there was power, and there was no one to comfort them.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:4:8 @ a person who has no one, either son or brother, yet there is no end to all his toil, and his eyes are never satisfied with riches, so that he never asks, "For whom am I toiling and depriving myself of pleasure?" This also is vanity and an unhappy business.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:5:8 @ If you see in a province the poor oppressed and justice and right violently taken away, do not be amazed at the matter; for the high official is watched by a higher, and there are yet higher ones over them.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:5:15 @ As he came from his mother's womb he shall go again, naked as he came, and shall take nothing for his toil, which he may carry away in his hand.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:5:16 @ This also is a grievous evil: just as he came, so shall he go; and what gain has he that he toiled for the wind,

rsv@Ecclesiastes:5:20 @ For he will not much remember the days of his life because God keeps him occupied with joy in his heart.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:6:3 @ If a man begets a hundred children, and lives many years, so that the days of his years are many, but he does not enjoy life's good things, and also has no burial, I say that an untimely birth is better off than he.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:6:10 @ Whatever has come to be has already been named, and it is known what man is, and that he is not able to dispute with one stronger than he.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:7:12 @ For the protection of wisdom is like the protection of money; and the advantage of knowledge is that wisdom preserves the life of him who has it.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:7:13 @ Consider the work of God; who can make straight what he has made crooked?

rsv@Ecclesiastes:7:15 @ In my vain life I have seen everything; there is a righteous man who perishes in his righteousness, and there is a wicked man who prolongs his life in his evil-doing.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:7:17 @ Be not wicked overmuch, neither be a fool; why should you die before your time?

rsv@Ecclesiastes:7:21 @ Do not give heed to all the things that men say, lest you hear your servant cursing you;

rsv@Ecclesiastes:7:22 @ your heart knows that many times you have yourself cursed others.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:7:23 @ All this I have tested by wisdom; I said, "I will be wise"; but it was far from me.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:7:25 @ I turned my mind to know and to search out and to seek wisdom and the sum of things, and to know the wickedness of folly and the foolishness which is madness.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:7:28 @ which my mind has sought repeatedly, but I have not found. One man among a thousand I found, but a woman among all these I have not found.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:8:1 @ Who is like the wise man? And who knows the interpretation of a thing? A man's wisdom makes his face shine, and the hardness of his countenance is changed.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:8:2 @ Keep the king's command, and because of your sacred oath be not dismayed;

rsv@Ecclesiastes:8:8 @ No man has power to retain the spirit, or authority over the day of death; there is no discharge from war, nor will wickedness deliver those who are given to it.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:8:9 @ All this I observed while applying my mind to all that is done under the sun, while man lords it over man to his hurt.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:8:10 @ Then I saw the wicked buried; they used to go in and out of the holy place, and were praised in the city where they had done such things. This also is vanity.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:8:11 @ Because sentence against an evil deed is not executed speedily, the heart of the sons of men is fully set to do evil.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:8:12 @ Though a sinner does evil a hundred times and prolongs his life, yet I know that it will be well with those who fear God, because they fear before him;

rsv@Ecclesiastes:8:13 @ but it will not be well with the wicked, neither will he prolong his days like a shadow, because he does not fear before God.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:8:14 @ There is a vanity which takes place on earth, that there are righteous men to whom it happens according to the deeds of the wicked, and there are wicked men to whom it happens according to the deeds of the righteous. I said that this also is vanity.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:8:16 @ When I applied my mind to know wisdom, and to see the business that is done on earth, how neither day nor night one's eyes see sleep;

rsv@Ecclesiastes:9:1 @ But all this I laid to heart, examining it all, how the righteous and the wise and their deeds are in the hand of God; whether it is love or hate man does not know. Everything before them is vanity,

rsv@Ecclesiastes:9:2 @ since one fate comes to all, to the righteous and the wicked, to the good and the evil, to the clean and the unclean, to him who sacrifices and him who does not sacrifice. As is the good man, so is the sinner; and he who swears is as he who shuns an oath.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:9:4 @ But he who is joined with all the living has hope, for a living dog is better than a dead lion.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:9:6 @ Their love and their hate and their envy have already perished, and they have no more for ever any share in all that is done under the sun.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:9:7 @ Go, eat your bread with enjoyment, and drink your wine with a merry heart; for God has already approved what you do.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:9:10 @ Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with your might; for there is no work or thought or knowledge or wisdom in Sheol, to which you are going.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:9:12 @ For man does not know his time. Like fish which are taken in an evil net, and like birds which are caught in a snare, so the sons of men are snared at an evil time, when it suddenly falls upon them.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:9:13 @ I have also seen this example of wisdom under the sun, and it seemed great to me.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:9:14 @ There was a little city with few men in it; and a great king came against it and besieged it, building great siegeworks against it.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:9:15 @ But there was found in it a poor wise man, and he by his wisdom delivered the city. Yet no one remembered that poor man.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:9:16 @ But I say that wisdom is better than might, though the poor man's wisdom is despised, and his words are not heeded.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:10:5 @ There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, as it were an error proceeding from the ruler:

rsv@Ecclesiastes:10:9 @ He who quarries stones is hurt by them; and he who splits logs is endangered by them.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:10:10 @ If the iron is blunt, and one does not whet the edge, he must put forth more strength; but wisdom helps one to succeed.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:10:11 @ If the serpent bites before it is charmed, there is no advantage in a charmer.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:10:13 @ The beginning of the words of his mouth is foolishness, and the end of his talk is wicked madness.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:10:20 @ Even in your thought, do not curse the king, nor in your bedchamber curse the rich; for a bird of the air will carry your voice, or some winged creature tell the matter.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:11:6 @ In the morning sow your seed, and at evening withhold not your hand; for you do not know which will prosper, this or that, or whether both alike will be good.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:12:2 @ before the sun and the light and the moon and the stars are darkened and the clouds return after the rain;

rsv@Ecclesiastes:12:3 @ in the day when the keepers of the house tremble, and the strong men are bent, and the grinders cease because they are few, and those that look through the windows are dimmed,

rsv@Ecclesiastes:12:6 @ before the silver cord is snapped, or the golden bowl is broken, or the pitcher is broken at the fountain, or the wheel broken at the cistern,

rsv@Ecclesiastes:12:9 @ Besides being wise, the Preacher also taught the people knowledge, weighing and studying and arranging proverbs with great care.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:12:11 @ The sayings of the wise are like goads, and like nails firmly fixed are the collected sayings which are given by one Shepherd.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:12:14 @ For God will bring every deed into judgment, with every secret thing, whether good or evil.

rsv@Songs:1:3 @ your anointing oils are fragrant, your name is oil poured out; therefore the maidens love you.

rsv@Songs:1:5 @ I am very dark, but comely, O daughters of Jerusalem, like the tents of Kedar, like the curtains of Solomon.

rsv@Songs:1:6 @ Do not gaze at me because I am swarthy, because the sun has scorched me. My mother's sons were angry with me, they made me keeper of the vineyards; but, my own vineyard I have not kept!

rsv@Songs:1:11 @ We will make you ornaments of gold, studded with silver.

rsv@Songs:1:13 @ My beloved is to me a bag of myrrh, that lies between my breasts.

rsv@Songs:1:14 @ My beloved is to me a cluster of henna blossoms in the vineyards of Enge'di.

rsv@Songs:1:16 @ Behold, you are beautiful, my beloved, truly lovely. Our couch is green;

rsv@Songs:1:17 @ the beams of our house are cedar, our rafters are pine.

rsv@Songs:2:3 @ As an apple tree among the trees of the wood, so is my beloved among young men. With great delight I sat in his shadow, and his fruit was sweet to my taste.

rsv@Songs:2:6 @ O that his left hand were under my head, and that his right hand embraced me!

rsv@Songs:2:8 @ The voice of my beloved! Behold, he comes, leaping upon the mountains, bounding over the hills.

rsv@Songs:2:9 @ My beloved is like a gazelle, or a young stag. Behold, there he stands behind our wall, gazing in at the windows, looking through the lattice.

rsv@Songs:2:10 @ My beloved speaks and says to me: "Arise, my love, my fair one, and come away;

rsv@Songs:2:12 @ The flowers appear on the earth, the time of singing has come, and the voice of the turtledove is heard in our land.

rsv@Songs:2:16 @ My beloved is mine and I am his, he pastures his flock among the lilies.

rsv@Songs:2:17 @ Until the day breathes and the shadows flee, turn, my beloved, be like a gazelle, or a young stag upon rugged mountains.

rsv@Songs:3:1 @ Upon my bed by night I sought him whom my soul loves; I sought him, but found him not; I called him, but he gave no answer.

rsv@Songs:3:4 @ Scarcely had I passed them, when I found him whom my soul loves. I held him, and would not let him go until I had brought him into my mother's house, and into the chamber of her that conceived me.

rsv@Songs:3:6 @ What is that coming up from the wilderness, like a column of smoke, perfumed with myrrh and frankincense, with all the fragrant powders of the merchant?

rsv@Songs:3:11 @ Go forth, O daughters of Zion, and behold King Solomon, with the crown with which his mother crowned him on the day of his wedding, on the day of the gladness of his heart.

rsv@Songs:4:2 @ Your teeth are like a flock of shorn ewes that have come up from the washing, all of which bear twins, and not one among them is bereaved.

rsv@Songs:4:5 @ Your two breasts are like two fawns, twins of a gazelle, that feed among the lilies.

rsv@Songs:4:9 @ You have ravished my heart, my sister, my bride, you have ravished my heart with a glance of your eyes, with one jewel of your necklace.

rsv@Songs:4:12 @ A garden locked is my sister, my bride, a garden locked, a fountain sealed.

rsv@Songs:4:16 @ Awake, O north wind, and come, O south wind! Blow upon my garden, let its fragrance be wafted abroad. Let my beloved come to his garden, and eat its choicest fruits.

rsv@Songs:5:2 @ I slept, but my heart was awake. Hark! my beloved is knocking. "Open to me, my sister, my love, my dove, my perfect one; for my head is wet with dew, my locks with the drops of the night."

rsv@Songs:5:3 @ I had put off my garment, how could I put it on? I had bathed my feet, how could I soil them?

rsv@Songs:5:4 @ My beloved put his hand to the latch, and my heart was thrilled within me.

rsv@Songs:5:5 @ I arose to open to my beloved, and my hands dripped with myrrh, my fingers with liquid myrrh, upon the handles of the bolt.

rsv@Songs:5:6 @ I opened to my beloved, but my beloved had turned and gone. My soul failed me when he spoke. I sought him, but found him not; I called him, but he gave no answer.

rsv@Songs:5:7 @ The watchmen found me, as they went about in the city; they beat me, they wounded me, they took away my mantle, those watchmen of the walls.

rsv@Songs:5:8 @ I adjure you, O daughters of Jerusalem, if you find my beloved, that you tell him I am sick with love.

rsv@Songs:5:9 @ What is your beloved more than another beloved, O fairest among women? What is your beloved more than another beloved, that you thus adjure us?

rsv@Songs:5:10 @ My beloved is all radiant and ruddy, distinguished among ten thousand.

rsv@Songs:5:12 @ His eyes are like doves beside springs of water, bathed in milk, fitly set.

rsv@Songs:5:13 @ His cheeks are like beds of spices, yielding fragrance. His lips are lilies, distilling liquid myrrh.

rsv@Songs:5:14 @ His arms are rounded gold, set with jewels. His body is ivory work, encrusted with sapphires.

rsv@Songs:5:15 @ His legs are alabaster columns, set upon bases of gold. His appearance is like Lebanon, choice as the cedars.

rsv@Songs:5:16 @ His speech is most sweet, and he is altogether desirable. This is my beloved and this is my friend, O daughters of Jerusalem.

rsv@Songs:6:1 @ Whither has your beloved gone, O fairest among women? Whither has your beloved turned, that we may seek him with you?

rsv@Songs:6:2 @ My beloved has gone down to his garden, to the beds of spices, to pasture his flock in the gardens, and to gather lilies.

rsv@Songs:6:3 @ I am my beloved's and my beloved is mine; he pastures his flock among the lilies.

rsv@Songs:6:6 @ Your teeth are like a flock of ewes, that have come up from the washing, all of them bear twins, not one among them is bereaved.

rsv@Songs:6:9 @ My dove, my perfect one, is only one, the darling of her mother, flawless to her that bore her. The maidens saw her and called her happy; the queens and concubines also, and they praised her.

rsv@Songs:6:11 @ I went down to the nut orchard, to look at the blossoms of the valley, to see whether the vines had budded, whether the pomegranates were in bloom.

rsv@Songs:7:1 @ How graceful are your feet in sandals, O queenly maiden! Your rounded thighs are like jewels, the work of a master hand.

rsv@Songs:7:2 @ Your navel is a rounded bowl that never lacks mixed wine. Your belly is a heap of wheat, encircled with lilies.

rsv@Songs:7:6 @ How fair and pleasant you are, O loved one, delectable maiden!

rsv@Songs:7:10 @ I am my beloved's, and his desire is for me.

rsv@Songs:7:11 @ Come, my beloved, let us go forth into the fields, and lodge in the villages;

rsv@Songs:7:12 @ let us go out early to the vineyards, and see whether the vines have budded, whether the grape blossoms have opened and the pomegranates are in bloom. There I will give you my love.

rsv@Songs:7:13 @ The mandrakes give forth fragrance, and over our doors are all choice fruits, new as well as old, which I have laid up for you, O my beloved.

rsv@Songs:8:1 @ O that you were like a brother to me, that nursed at my mother's breast! If I met you outside, I would kiss you, and none would despise me.

rsv@Songs:8:2 @ I would lead you and bring you into the house of my mother, and into the chamber of her that conceived me. I would give you spiced wine to drink, the juice of my pomegranates.

rsv@Songs:8:3 @ O that his left hand were under my head, and that his right hand embraced me!

rsv@Songs:8:5 @ Who is that coming up from the wilderness, leaning upon her beloved? Under the apple tree I awakened you. There your mother was in travail with you, there she who bore you was in travail.

rsv@Songs:8:7 @ Many waters cannot quench love, neither can floods drown it. If a man offered for love all the wealth of his house, it would be utterly scorned.

rsv@Songs:8:9 @ If she is a wall, we will build upon her a battlement of silver; but if she is a door, we will enclose her with boards of cedar.

rsv@Songs:8:12 @ My vineyard, my very own, is for myself; you, O Solomon, may have the thousand, and the keepers of the fruit two hundred.

rsv@Songs:8:14 @ Make haste, my beloved, and be like a gazelle or a young stag upon the mountains of spices.
