Job:1:1 @ There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was blameless and upright, and one who feared God and shunned evil.
nkjv@Job:1:3 @ Also, his possessions were seven thousand sheep, three thousand camels, five hundred yoke of oxen, five hundred female donkeys, and a very large household, so that this man was the greatest of all the people of the East.
nkjv@Job:1:5 @ So it was, when the days of feasting had run their course, that 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 regularly.
nkjv@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.
nkjv@Job:1:10 @ Have You not made a hedge around him, around his household, and around all that he has on every side? You have blessed the work of his hands, and his possessions have increased in the land.
nkjv@Job:1:12 @ And the LORD said to Satan, "Behold, all that he has is in your power; only do not lay a hand on his person." So Satan went out from the presence of the LORD.
nkjv@Job:1:15 @ when the Sabeans raided them and took them away--indeed they have killed the servants with the edge of the sword; and I alone have escaped to tell you!"
nkjv@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!"
nkjv@Job:1:17 @ While he was still speaking, another also came and said, "The Chaldeans formed three bands, raided the camels and took them away, yes, and killed the servants with the edge of the sword; and I alone have escaped to tell you!"
nkjv@Job:1:19 @ and suddenly 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 are dead; and I alone have escaped to tell you!"
nkjv@Job:1:21 @ And he said: "Naked I came from my mother's womb, And naked shall I return there. The LORD gave, and the LORD has taken away; Blessed be the name of the LORD."
nkjv@Job:2:1 @ Again there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them to present himself before the LORD.
nkjv@Job:2:7 @ So Satan went out from the presence of the LORD, and struck Job with painful boils from the sole of his foot to the crown of his head.
nkjv@Job:2:8 @ And he took for himself a potsherd with which to scrape himself while he sat in the midst of the ashes.
nkjv@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 shall we not accept adversity?" In all this Job did not sin with his lips.
nkjv@Job:2:11 @ Now when Job's three friends heard of all this adversity that had come upon him, each one came from his own place--Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite. For they had made an appointment together to come and mourn with him, and to comfort him.
nkjv@Job:3:1 @ After this Job opened his mouth and cursed the day of his birth.
nkjv@Job:3:5 @ May darkness and the shadow of death claim it; May a cloud settle on it; May the blackness of the day terrify it.
nkjv@Job:3:6 @ As for that night, may darkness seize it; May it not rejoice among the days of the year, May it not come into the number of the months.
nkjv@Job:3:9 @ May the stars of its morning be dark; May it look for light, but have none, And not see the dawning of the day;
nkjv@Job:3:10 @ Because it did not shut up the doors of my mother's womb, Nor hide sorrow from my eyes.
nkjv@Job:3:14 @ With kings and counselors of the earth, Who built ruins for themselves,
nkjv@Job:3:18 @ There the prisoners rest together; They do not hear the voice of the oppressor.
nkjv@Job:3:20 @ "Why is light given to him who is in misery, And life to the bitter of soul,
nkjv@Job:4:6 @ Is not your reverence your confidence? And the integrity of your ways your hope?
nkjv@Job:4:7 @ "Remember now, who ever perished being innocent? Or where were the upright ever cut off?
nkjv@Job:4:9 @ By the blast of God they perish, And by the breath of His anger they are consumed.
nkjv@Job:4:10 @ The roaring of the lion, The voice of the fierce lion, And the teeth of the young lions are broken.
nkjv@Job:4:11 @ The old lion perishes for lack of prey, And the cubs of the lioness are scattered.
nkjv@Job:4:12 @ "Now a word was secretly brought to me, And my ear received a whisper of it.
nkjv@Job:4:13 @ In disquieting thoughts from the visions of the night, When deep sleep falls on men,
nkjv@Job:4:19 @ How much more those who dwell in houses of clay, Whose foundation is in the dust, Who are crushed before a moth?
nkjv@Job:5:1 @ "Call out now; Is there anyone who will answer you? And to which of the holy ones will you turn?
nkjv@Job:5:12 @ He frustrates the devices of the crafty, So that their hands cannot carry out their plans.
nkjv@Job:5:13 @ He catches the wise in their own craftiness, And the counsel of the cunning comes quickly upon them.
nkjv@Job:5:15 @ But He saves the needy from the sword, From the mouth of the mighty, And from their hand.
nkjv@Job:5:17 @ "Behold, happy is the man whom God corrects; Therefore do not despise the chastening of the Almighty.
nkjv@Job:5:20 @ In famine He shall redeem you from death, And in war from the power of the sword.
nkjv@Job:5:21 @ You shall be hidden from the scourge of the tongue, And you shall not be afraid of destruction when it comes.
nkjv@Job:5:22 @ You shall laugh at destruction and famine, And you shall not be afraid of the beasts of the earth.
nkjv@Job:5:23 @ For you shall have a covenant with the stones of the field, And the beasts of the field shall be at peace with you.
nkjv@Job:5:25 @ You shall also know that your descendants shall be many, And your offspring like the grass of the earth.
nkjv@Job:5:26 @ You shall come to the grave at a full age, As a sheaf of grain ripens in its season.
nkjv@Job:6:3 @ For then it would be heavier than the sand of the sea-- Therefore my words have been rash.
nkjv@Job:6:4 @ For the arrows of the Almighty are within me; My spirit drinks in their poison; The terrors of God are arrayed against me.
nkjv@Job:6:6 @ Can flavorless food be eaten without salt? Or is there any taste in the white of an egg?
nkjv@Job:6:9 @ That it would please God to crush me, That He would loose His hand and cut me off!
nkjv@Job:6:10 @ Then I would still have comfort; Though in anguish I would exult, He will not spare; For I have not concealed the words of the Holy One.
nkjv@Job:6:12 @ Is my strength the strength of stones? Or is my flesh bronze?
nkjv@Job:6:14 @ "To him who is afflicted, kindness should be shown by his friend, Even though he forsakes the fear of the Almighty.
nkjv@Job:6:15 @ My brothers have dealt deceitfully like a brook, Like the streams of the brooks that pass away,
nkjv@Job:6:16 @ Which are dark because of the ice, And into which the snow vanishes.
nkjv@Job:6:18 @ The paths of their way turn aside, They go nowhere and perish.
nkjv@Job:6:19 @ The caravans of Tema look, The travelers of Sheba hope for them.
nkjv@Job:6:22 @ Did I ever say, "Bring something to me'? Or, "Offer a bribe for me from your wealth'?
nkjv@Job:6:23 @ Or, "Deliver me from the enemy's hand'? Or, "Redeem me from the hand of oppressors'?
nkjv@Job:6:26 @ Do you intend to rebuke my words, And the speeches of a desperate one, which are as wind?
nkjv@Job:7:1 @ "Is there not a time of hard service for man on earth? Are not his days also like the days of a hired man?
nkjv@Job:7:3 @ So I have been allotted months of futility, And wearisome nights have been appointed to me.
nkjv@Job:7:4 @ When I lie down, I say, "When shall I arise, And the night be ended?' For I have had my fill of tossing till dawn.
nkjv@Job:7:8 @ The eye of him who sees me will see me no more; While your eyes are upon me, I shall no longer be.
nkjv@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.
nkjv@Job:7:20 @ 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?
nkjv@Job:8:2 @ "How long will you speak these things, And the words of your mouth be like a strong wind?
nkjv@Job:8:8 @ "For inquire, please, of the former age, And consider the things discovered by their fathers;
nkjv@Job:8:13 @ So are the paths of all who forget God; And the hope of the hypocrite shall perish,
nkjv@Job:8:14 @ Whose confidence shall be cut off, And whose trust is a spider's web.
nkjv@Job:8:19 @ "Behold, this is the joy of His way, And out of the earth others will grow.
nkjv@Job:8:22 @ Those who hate you will be clothed with shame, And the dwelling place of the wicked will come to nothing."
nkjv@Job:9:3 @ If one wished to contend with Him, He could not answer Him one time out of a thousand.
nkjv@Job:9:6 @ He shakes the earth out of its place, And its pillars tremble;
nkjv@Job:9:7 @ He commands the sun, and it does not rise; He seals off the stars;
nkjv@Job:9:8 @ He alone spreads out the heavens, And treads on the waves of the sea;
nkjv@Job:9:9 @ He made the Bear, Orion, and the Pleiades, And the chambers of the south;
nkjv@Job:9:13 @ God will not withdraw His anger, The allies of the proud lie prostrate beneath Him.
nkjv@Job:9:15 @ For though I were righteous, I could not answer Him; I would beg mercy of my Judge.
nkjv@Job:9:19 @ If it is a matter of strength, indeed He is strong; And if of justice, who will appoint my day in court?
nkjv@Job:9:23 @ If the scourge slays suddenly, He laughs at the plight of the innocent.
nkjv@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 else could it be?
nkjv@Job:9:27 @ If I say, "I will forget my complaint, I will put off my sad face and wear a smile,'
nkjv@Job:9:28 @ I am afraid of all my sufferings; I know that You will not hold me innocent.
nkjv@Job:9:34 @ Let Him take His rod away from me, And do not let dread of Him terrify me.
nkjv@Job:10:1 @ "My soul loathes my life; I will give free course to my complaint, I will speak in the bitterness of my soul.
nkjv@Job:10:3 @ Does it seem good to You that You should oppress, That You should despise the work of Your hands, And smile on the counsel of the wicked?
nkjv@Job:10:4 @ Do You have eyes of flesh? Or do You see as man sees?
nkjv@Job:10:5 @ Are Your days like the days of a mortal man? Are Your years like the days of a mighty man,
nkjv@Job:10:14 @ If I sin, then You mark me, And will not acquit me of my iniquity.
nkjv@Job:10:15 @ If I am wicked, woe to me; Even if I am righteous, I cannot lift up my head. I am full of disgrace; See my misery!
nkjv@Job:10:18 @ "Why then have You brought me out of the womb? Oh, that I had perished and no eye had seen me!
nkjv@Job:10:21 @ Before I go to the place from which I shall not return, To the land of darkness and the shadow of death,
nkjv@Job:10:22 @ A land as dark as darkness itself, As the shadow of death, without any order, Where even the light is like darkness."'
nkjv@Job:11:2 @ "Should not the multitude of words be answered? And should a man full of talk be vindicated?
nkjv@Job:11:6 @ That He would show you the secrets of wisdom! For they would double your prudence. Know therefore that God exacts from you Less than your iniquity deserves.
nkjv@Job:11:7 @ "Can you search out the deep things of God? Can you find out the limits of the Almighty?
nkjv@Job:11:20 @ But the eyes of the wicked will fail, And they shall not escape, And their hope--loss of life!"
nkjv@Job:12:5 @ A lamp is despised in the thought of one who is at ease; It is made ready for those whose feet slip.
nkjv@Job:12:6 @ The tents of robbers prosper, And those who provoke God are secure-- In what God provides by His hand.
nkjv@Job:12:7 @ "But now ask the beasts, and they will teach you; And the birds of the air, and they will tell you;
nkjv@Job:12:8 @ Or speak to the earth, and it will teach you; And the fish of the sea will explain to you.
nkjv@Job:12:9 @ Who among all these does not know That the hand of the LORD has done this,
nkjv@Job:12:10 @ In whose hand is the life of every living thing, And the breath of all mankind?
nkjv@Job:12:12 @ Wisdom is with aged men, And with length of days, understanding.
nkjv@Job:12:17 @ He leads counselors away plundered, And makes fools of the judges.
nkjv@Job:12:18 @ He loosens the bonds of kings, And binds their waist with a belt.
nkjv@Job:12:20 @ He deprives the trusted ones of speech, And takes away the discernment of the elders.
nkjv@Job:12:22 @ He uncovers deep things out of darkness, And brings the shadow of death to light.
nkjv@Job:12:24 @ He takes away the understanding of the chiefs of the people of the earth, And makes them wander in a pathless wilderness.
nkjv@Job:13:4 @ But you forgers of lies, You are all worthless physicians.
nkjv@Job:13:6 @ Now hear my reasoning, And heed the pleadings of my lips.
nkjv@Job:13:11 @ Will not His excellence make you afraid, And the dread of Him fall upon you?
nkjv@Job:13:12 @ Your platitudes are proverbs of ashes, Your defenses are defenses of clay.
nkjv@Job:13:21 @ Withdraw Your hand far from me, And let not the dread of You make me afraid.
nkjv@Job:13:26 @ For You write bitter things against me, And make me inherit the iniquities of my youth.
nkjv@Job:13:27 @ You put my feet in the stocks, And watch closely all my paths. You set a limit for the soles of my feet.
nkjv@Job:14:1 @ "Man who is born of woman Is of few days and full of trouble.
nkjv@Job:14:4 @ Who can bring a clean thing out of an unclean? No one!
nkjv@Job:14:5 @ Since his days are determined, The number of his months is with You; You have appointed his limits, so that he cannot pass.
nkjv@Job:14:9 @ Yet at the scent of water it will bud And bring forth branches like a plant.
nkjv@Job:14:14 @ If a man dies, shall he live again? All the days of my hard service I will wait, Till my change comes.
nkjv@Job:14:15 @ You shall call, and I will answer You; You shall desire the work of Your hands.
nkjv@Job:14:19 @ As water wears away stones, And as torrents wash away the soil of the earth; So You destroy the hope of man.
nkjv@Job:15:3 @ Should he reason with unprofitable talk, Or by speeches with which he can do no good?
nkjv@Job:15:4 @ Yes, you cast off fear, And restrain prayer before God.
nkjv@Job:15:5 @ For your iniquity teaches your mouth, And you choose the tongue of the crafty.
nkjv@Job:15:8 @ Have you heard the counsel of God? Do you limit wisdom to yourself?
nkjv@Job:15:11 @ Are the consolations of God too small for you, And the word spoken gently with you?
nkjv@Job:15:13 @ That you turn your spirit against God, And let such words go out of your mouth?
nkjv@Job:15:14 @ "What is man, that he could be pure? And he who is born of a woman, that he could be righteous?
nkjv@Job:15:20 @ The wicked man writhes with pain all his days, And the number of years is hidden from the oppressor.
nkjv@Job:15:23 @ He wanders about for bread, saying, "Where is it?' He knows that a day of darkness is ready at his hand.
nkjv@Job:15:30 @ He will not depart from darkness; The flame will dry out his branches, And by the breath of His mouth he will go away.
nkjv@Job:15:33 @ He will shake off his unripe grape like a vine, And cast off his blossom like an olive tree.
nkjv@Job:15:34 @ For the company of hypocrites will be barren, And fire will consume the tents of bribery.
nkjv@Job:16:3 @ Shall words of wind have an end? Or what provokes you that you answer?
nkjv@Job:16:5 @ But I would strengthen you with my mouth, And the comfort of my lips would relieve your grief.
nkjv@Job:16:11 @ God has delivered me to the ungodly, And turned me over to the hands of the wicked.
nkjv@Job:16:16 @ My face is flushed from weeping, And on my eyelids is the shadow of death;
nkjv@Job:16:22 @ For when a few years are finished, I shall go the way of no return.
nkjv@Job:17:5 @ He who speaks flattery to his friends, Even the eyes of his children will fail.
nkjv@Job:17:6 @ "But He has made me a byword of the people, And I have become one in whose face men spit.
nkjv@Job:17:7 @ My eye has also grown dim because of sorrow, And all my members are like shadows.
nkjv@Job:17:10 @ "But please, come back again, all of you, For I shall not find one wise man among you.
nkjv@Job:17:11 @ My days are past, My purposes are broken off, Even the thoughts of my heart.
nkjv@Job:17:12 @ They change the night into day; "The light is near,' they say, in the face of darkness.
nkjv@Job:17:16 @ Will they go down to the gates of Sheol? Shall we have rest together in the dust?"
nkjv@Job:18:5 @ "The light of the wicked indeed goes out, And the flame of his fire does not shine.
nkjv@Job:18:7 @ The steps of his strength are shortened, And his own counsel casts him down.
nkjv@Job:18:9 @ The net takes him by the heel, And a snare lays hold of him.
nkjv@Job:18:13 @ It devours patches of his skin; The firstborn of death devours his limbs.
nkjv@Job:18:14 @ He is uprooted from the shelter of his tent, And they parade him before the king of terrors.
nkjv@Job:18:15 @ They dwell in his tent who are none of his; Brimstone is scattered on his dwelling.
nkjv@Job:18:17 @ The memory of him perishes from the earth, And he has no name among the renowned.
nkjv@Job:18:18 @ He is driven from light into darkness, And chased out of the world.
nkjv@Job:18:21 @ Surely such are the dwellings of the wicked, And this is the place of him who does not know God."
nkjv@Job:19:9 @ He has stripped me of my glory, And taken the crown from my head.
nkjv@Job:19:11 @ He has also kindled His wrath against me, And He counts me as one of His enemies.
nkjv@Job:19:17 @ My breath is offensive to my wife, And I am repulsive to the children of my own body.
nkjv@Job:19:20 @ My bone clings to my skin and to my flesh, And I have escaped by the skin of my teeth.
nkjv@Job:19:21 @ "Have pity on me, have pity on me, O you my friends, For the hand of God has struck me!
nkjv@Job:19:28 @ If you should say, "How shall we persecute him?'-- Since the root of the matter is found in me,
nkjv@Job:19:29 @ Be afraid of the sword for yourselves; For wrath brings the punishment of the sword, That you may know there is a judgment."
nkjv@Job:20:2 @ "Therefore my anxious thoughts make me answer, Because of the turmoil within me.
nkjv@Job:20:3 @ I have heard the rebuke that reproaches me, And the spirit of my understanding causes me to answer.
nkjv@Job:20:4 @ "Do you not know this of old, Since man was placed on earth,
nkjv@Job:20:5 @ That the triumphing of the wicked is short, And the joy of the hypocrite is but for a moment?
nkjv@Job:20:8 @ He will fly away like a dream, and not be found; Yes, he will be chased away like a vision of the night.
nkjv@Job:20:10 @ His children will seek the favor of the poor, And his hands will restore his wealth.
nkjv@Job:20:11 @ His bones are full of his youthful vigor, But it will lie down with him in the dust.
nkjv@Job:20:15 @ He swallows down riches And vomits them up again; God casts them out of his belly.
nkjv@Job:20:16 @ He will suck the poison of cobras; The viper's tongue will slay him.
nkjv@Job:20:18 @ He will restore that for which he labored, And will not swallow it down; From the proceeds of business He will get no enjoyment.
nkjv@Job:20:22 @ In his self-sufficiency he will be in distress; Every hand of misery will come against him.
nkjv@Job:20:23 @ When he is about to fill his stomach, God will cast on him the fury of His wrath, And will rain it on him while he is eating.
nkjv@Job:20:25 @ It is drawn, and comes out of the body; Yes, the glittering point comes out of his gall. Terrors come upon him;
nkjv@Job:20:28 @ The increase of his house will depart, And his goods will flow away in the day of His wrath.
nkjv@Job:21:6 @ Even when I remember I am terrified, And trembling takes hold of my flesh.
nkjv@Job:21:8 @ Their descendants are established with them in their sight, And their offspring before their eyes.
nkjv@Job:21:9 @ Their houses are safe from fear, Neither is the rod of God upon them.
nkjv@Job:21:12 @ They sing to the tambourine and harp, And rejoice to the sound of the flute.
nkjv@Job:21:14 @ Yet they say to God, "Depart from us, For we do not desire the knowledge of Your ways.
nkjv@Job:21:15 @ Who is the Almighty, that we should serve Him? And what profit do we have if we pray to Him?'
nkjv@Job:21:16 @ Indeed their prosperity is not in their hand; The counsel of the wicked is far from me.
nkjv@Job:21:17 @ "How often is the lamp of the wicked put out? How often does their destruction come upon them, The sorrows God distributes in His anger?
nkjv@Job:21:20 @ Let his eyes see his destruction, And let him drink of the wrath of the Almighty.

nkjv@Job:21:24 @ His pails are full of milk, And the marrow of his bones is moist.
nkjv@Job:21:25 @ Another man dies in the bitterness of his soul, Never having eaten with pleasure.
nkjv@Job:21:28 @ For you say, "Where is the house of the prince? And where is the tent, The dwelling place of the wicked?'
nkjv@Job:21:30 @ For the wicked are reserved for the day of doom; They shall be brought out on the day of wrath.
nkjv@Job:21:33 @ The clods of the valley shall be sweet to him; Everyone shall follow him, As countless have gone before him.
nkjv@Job:22:2 @ "Can a man be profitable to God, Though he who is wise may be profitable to himself?
nkjv@Job:22:4 @ "Is it because of your fear of Him that He corrects you, And enters into judgment with you?
nkjv@Job:22:6 @ For you have taken pledges from your brother for no reason, And stripped the naked of their clothing.
nkjv@Job:22:9 @ You have sent widows away empty, And the strength of the fatherless was crushed.
nkjv@Job:22:11 @ Or darkness so that you cannot see; And an abundance of water covers you.
nkjv@Job:22:12 @ "Is not God in the height of heaven? And see the highest stars, how lofty they are!
nkjv@Job:22:14 @ Thick clouds cover Him, so that He cannot see, And He walks above the circle of heaven.'
nkjv@Job:22:18 @ Yet He filled their houses with good things; But the counsel of the wicked is far from me.
nkjv@Job:22:24 @ Then you will lay your gold in the dust, And the gold of Ophir among the stones of the brooks.
nkjv@Job:22:30 @ He will even deliver one who is not innocent; Yes, he will be delivered by the purity of your hands."
nkjv@Job:23:2 @ "Even today my complaint is bitter; My hand is listless because of my groaning.
nkjv@Job:23:6 @ Would He contend with me in His great power? No! But He would take note of me.
nkjv@Job:23:12 @ I have not departed from the commandment of His lips; I have treasured the words of His mouth More than my necessary food.
nkjv@Job:23:15 @ Therefore I am terrified at His presence; When I consider this, I am afraid of Him.
nkjv@Job:23:17 @ Because I was not cut off from the presence of darkness, And He did not hide deep darkness from my face.
nkjv@Job:24:3 @ They drive away the donkey of the fatherless; They take the widow's ox as a pledge.
nkjv@Job:24:4 @ They push the needy off the road; All the poor of the land are forced to hide.
nkjv@Job:24:6 @ They gather their fodder in the field And glean in the vineyard of the wicked.
nkjv@Job:24:8 @ They are wet with the showers of the mountains, And huddle around the rock for want of shelter.
nkjv@Job:24:12 @ The dying groan in the city, And the souls of the wounded cry out; Yet God does not charge them with wrong.
nkjv@Job:24:15 @ The eye of the adulterer waits for the twilight, Saying, "No eye will see me'; And he disguises his face.
nkjv@Job:24:17 @ For the morning is the same to them as the shadow of death; If someone recognizes them, They are in the terrors of the shadow of death.
nkjv@Job:24:18 @ "They should be swift on the face of the waters, Their portion should be cursed in the earth, So that no one would turn into the way of their vineyards.
nkjv@Job:24:22 @ "But God draws the mighty away with His power; He rises up, but no man is sure of life.
nkjv@Job:24:24 @ They are exalted for a little while, Then they are gone. They are brought low; They are taken out of the way like all others; They dry out like the heads of grain.

nkjv@Job:25:6 @ How much less man, who is a maggot, And a son of man, who is a worm?"
nkjv@Job:26:9 @ He covers the face of His throne, And spreads His cloud over it.
nkjv@Job:26:10 @ He drew a circular horizon on the face of the waters, At the boundary of light and darkness.
nkjv@Job:26:11 @ The pillars of heaven tremble, And are astonished at His rebuke.
nkjv@Job:26:14 @ Indeed these are the mere edges of His ways, And how small a whisper we hear of Him! But the thunder of His power who can understand?"
nkjv@Job:27:3 @ As long as my breath is in me, And the breath of God in my nostrils,
