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:1:5 @ 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:1:19 @ 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:1:22 @ In all this Job did not sin or charge God with wrong.

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

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:3:4 @ Let that day be darkness! May God above not seek it, nor light shine upon it.

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:3:7 @ Yea, let that night be barren; let no joyful cry be heard in it.

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:3:14 @ with kings and counselors of the earth who rebuilt ruins for themselves,

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

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

rsv@Job:3:25 @ For the thing that I fear comes upon me, and what I dread befalls me.

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

rsv@Job:4:6 @ Is not your fear of God your confidence, and the integrity of your ways your hope?

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:4:16 @ 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:4:18 @ Even in his servants he puts no trust, and his angels he charges with error;

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: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:5:7 @ but man is born to trouble as the sparks fly upward.

rsv@Job:5:9 @ who does great things and unsearchable, marvelous things without number:

rsv@Job:5:10 @ he gives rain upon the earth and sends waters upon the fields;

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

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:5:20 @ 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:5:25 @ You shall know also that your descendants shall be many, and your offspring as the grass of the earth.

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

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:6:7 @ 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:6:14 @ "He who withholds kindness from a friend forsakes the fear of the Almighty.

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

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:6:21 @ Such you have now become to me; you see my calamity, and are afraid.

rsv@Job:6:25 @ How forceful are honest words! But what does reproof from you reprove?

rsv@Job:6:27 @ You would even cast lots over the fatherless, and bargain over your friend.

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

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:7:12 @ 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:7:16 @ 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:8:6 @ if you are pure and upright, surely then he will rouse himself for you and reward you with a rightful habitation.

rsv@Job:8:9 @ for we are but of yesterday, and know nothing, for our days on earth are a shadow.

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

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:8:19 @ Behold, this is the joy of his way; and out of the earth others will spring.

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

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:9:9 @ who made the Bear and Orion, the Plei'ades and the chambers of the south;

rsv@Job:9:10 @ who does great things beyond understanding, and marvelous things without number.

rsv@Job:9:21 @ I am blameless; I regard not myself; I loathe my life.

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:9:35 @ Then I would speak without fear of him, for I am not so in myself.

rsv@Job:10:5 @ Are thy days as the days of man, or thy years as man's years,

rsv@Job:10:6 @ that thou dost seek out my iniquity and search for my sin,

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

rsv@Job:10:13 @ Yet these things thou didst hide in thy heart; I know that this was thy purpose.

rsv@Job:10:14 @ If I sin, thou dost mark me, and dost not acquit me of my iniquity.

rsv@Job:10:17 @ thou dost renew thy witnesses against me, and increase thy vexation toward me; thou dost bring fresh hosts against 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:11:9 @ Its measure is longer than the earth, and broader than the sea.

rsv@Job:11:13 @ "If you set your heart aright, you will stretch out your hands toward him.

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

rsv@Job:11:15 @ 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:12:2 @ "No doubt you are the people, and wisdom will die with you.

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:12:8 @ or the plants of the earth, and they will teach you; and the fish of the sea will declare to you.

rsv@Job:12:11 @ Does not the ear try words as the palate tastes food?

rsv@Job:12:13 @ "With God are wisdom and might; he has counsel and understanding.

rsv@Job:12:14 @ If he tears down, none can rebuild; if he shuts a man in, none can open.

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

rsv@Job:12:20 @ He deprives of speech those who are trusted, and takes away the discernment of the elders.

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:13:1 @ "Lo, my eye has seen all this, my ear has heard and understood it.

rsv@Job:13:3 @ But I would speak to the Almighty, and I desire to argue my case with God.

rsv@Job:13:4 @ As for you, you whitewash with lies; worthless physicians are you all.

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:13:9 @ Will it be well with you when he searches you out? Or can you deceive him, as one deceives a man?

rsv@Job:13:10 @ He will surely rebuke you if in secret you show partiality.

rsv@Job:13:12 @ Your maxims are proverbs of ashes, your defenses are defenses of clay.

rsv@Job:13:17 @ Listen carefully to my words, and let my declaration be in your ears.

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

rsv@Job:13:21 @ withdraw thy hand far from me, and let not dread of thee terrify me.

rsv@Job:13:23 @ How many are my iniquities and my sins? Make me know my transgression and my sin.

rsv@Job:13:28 @ Man wastes away like a rotten thing, like a garment that is moth-eaten.

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:14:8 @ Though its root grow old in the earth, and its stump die in the ground,

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:14:19 @ 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:15:3 @ Should he argue in unprofitable talk, or in words with which he can do no good?

rsv@Job:15:4 @ But you are doing away with the fear of God, and hindering meditation before God.

rsv@Job:15:7 @ "Are you the first man that was born? Or were you brought forth before the hills?

rsv@Job:15:9 @ What do you know that we do not know? What do you understand that is not clear to us?

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:15:12 @ Why does your heart carry you away, and why do your eyes flash,

rsv@Job:15:15 @ Behold, God puts no trust in his holy ones, and the heavens are not clean in his sight;

rsv@Job:15:17 @ "I will show you, hear me; and what I have seen I will declare

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:15:23 @ He wanders abroad for bread, saying, ` wanders abroad for bread, saying, "Where is it?' He knows that a day of darkness is ready at his hand;

rsv@Job:15:24 @ distress and anguish terrify him; they prevail against him, like a king prepared for battle.

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:15:34 @ For the company of the godless is barren, and fire consumes the tents of bribery.

rsv@Job:15:35 @ They conceive mischief and bring forth evil and their heart prepares deceit."

rsv@Job:16:2 @ "I have heard many such things; miserable comforters are you all.

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

rsv@Job:16:9 @ 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:16:12 @ 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:16:13 @ his archers surround me. He slashes open my kidneys, and does not spare; he pours out my gall on the ground.

rsv@Job:16:14 @ He breaks me with breach upon breach; he runs upon me like a warrior.

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

rsv@Job:16:18 @ "O earth, cover not my blood, and let my cry find no resting place.

rsv@Job:16:20 @ My friends scorn me; my eye pours out tears to God,

rsv@Job:16:22 @ For when a few years have come I shall go the way whence I shall not return.

rsv@Job:17:1 @ My spirit is broken, my days are extinct, the grave is ready for me.

rsv@Job:17:2 @ Surely there are mockers about me, and my eye dwells on their provocation.

rsv@Job:17:5 @ He who informs against his friends to get a share of their property, the eyes of his children will fail.

rsv@Job:17:7 @ My eye has grown dim from grief, and all my members are like a shadow.

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

rsv@Job:17:11 @ My days are past, my plans are broken off, the desires of my heart.

rsv@Job:17:12 @ They make night into day; `he light,' they say, "is near to the darkness.'

rsv@Job:17:13 @ If I look for Sheol as my house, if I spread my couch in darkness,

rsv@Job:17:14 @ if I say to the pit, `You are my father,' and to the worm, `My mother,' or `My sister,'

rsv@Job:17:16 @ Will it go down to the bars of Sheol? Shall we descend together into the dust?"

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:18:6 @ The light is dark in his tent, and his lamp above him is put out.

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

rsv@Job:18:9 @ A trap seizes him by the heel, a snare lays hold of him.

rsv@Job:18:17 @ His memory perishes from the earth, and he has no name in the street.

rsv@Job:18:18 @ He is thrust from light into darkness, and driven out of the world.

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

rsv@Job:18:21 @ Surely such are the dwellings of the ungodly, such is the place of him who knows not God."

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

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

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:19:11 @ 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:19:22 @ Why do you, like God, pursue me? Why are you not satisfied with my flesh?

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

rsv@Job:19:27 @ whom I shall see on my side, and my eyes shall behold, and not another. My heart faints within me!

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

rsv@Job:20:3 @ I hear censure which insults me, and out of my understanding a spirit answers me.

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

rsv@Job:20:11 @ His bones are full of youthful vigor, but it will lie down with him in the dust.

rsv@Job:20:24 @ He will flee from an iron weapon; a bronze arrow will strike him through.

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:20:27 @ The heavens will reveal his iniquity, and the earth will rise up against him.

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

rsv@Job:21:2 @ "Listen carefully to my words, and let this be your consolation.

rsv@Job:21:3 @ Bear with me, and I will speak, and after I have spoken, mock on.

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

rsv@Job:21:9 @ Their houses are safe from fear, and no rod of God is upon them.

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:21:18 @ That they are like straw before the wind, and like chaff that the storm carries away?

rsv@Job:21:21 @ For what do they care for their houses after them, when the number of their months is cut off?

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

rsv@Job:21:24 @ his body full of fat and the marrow of his bones moist.

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:21:31 @ Who declares his way to his face, and who requites him for what he has done?

rsv@Job:21:33 @ The clods of the valley are sweet to him; all men follow after him, and those who go before him are innumerable.

rsv@Job:22:3 @ Is it any pleasure to the Almighty if you are righteous, or is it gain to him if you make your ways blameless?

rsv@Job:22:4 @ Is it for your fear of him that he reproves you, and enters into judgment with you?

rsv@Job:22:7 @ You have given no water to the weary to drink, and you have withheld bread from the hungry.

rsv@Job:22:9 @ You have sent widows away empty, and the arms of the fatherless were crushed.

rsv@Job:22:10 @ Therefore snares are round about you, and sudden terror overwhelms you;

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

rsv@Job:22:12 @ "Is not God high in the heavens? See the highest stars, how lofty they are!

rsv@Job:22:13 @ Therefore you say, `erefore you say, "What does God know? Can he judge through the deep darkness?

rsv@Job:22:17 @ They said to God, `ey said to God, "Depart from us,' and `d "What can the Almighty do to us?'

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

rsv@Job:22:19 @ The righteous see it and are glad; the innocent laugh them to scorn,

rsv@Job:22:22 @ Receive instruction from his mouth, and lay up his words in your heart.

rsv@Job:22:23 @ If you return to the Almighty and humble yourself, if you remove unrighteousness far from your tents,

rsv@Job:22:27 @ You will make your prayer to him, and he will hear you; and you will pay your vows.

rsv@Job:23:4 @ I would lay my case before him and fill my mouth with arguments.

rsv@Job:23:5 @ I would learn what he would answer me, and understand what he would say to me.

rsv@Job:23:8 @ "Behold, I go forward, but he is not there; and backward, but I cannot perceive him;

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:23:14 @ For he will complete what he appoints for me; and many such things are in his mind.

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:24:1 @ "Why are not times of judgment kept by the Almighty, and why do those who know him never see his days?

rsv@Job:24:2 @ Men remove landmarks; they seize flocks and pasture them.

rsv@Job:24:4 @ They thrust the poor off the road; the poor of the earth all hide themselves.

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

rsv@Job:24:8 @ They are wet with the rain of the mountains, and cling to the rock for want of shelter.

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

rsv@Ecclesiastes:3:18 @ I said in my heart with regard to the sons of men that God is testing them to show them that they are but beasts.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:3:20 @ All go to one place; all are from the dust, and all turn to dust again.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:3:21 @ Who knows whether the spirit of man goes upward and the spirit of the beast goes down to the earth?

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:7:20 @ Surely there is not a righteous man on earth who does good and never sins.

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:7:24 @ That which is, is far off, and deep, very deep; who can find it out?

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:7:26 @ And I found more bitter than death the woman whose heart is snares and nets, and whose hands are fetters; he who pleases God escapes her, but the sinner is taken by her.

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:9:3 @ This is an evil in all that is done under the sun, that one fate comes to all; also the hearts of men are full of evil, and madness is in their hearts while they live, and after that they go to the dead.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:9:5 @ For the living know that they will die, but the dead know nothing, and they have no more reward; but the memory of them is lost.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:9:8 @ Let your garments be always white; let not oil be lacking on your head.

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:9:16 @ 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:9:17 @ The words of the wise heard in quiet are better than the shouting of a ruler among fools.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:9:18 @ Wisdom is better than weapons of war, but one sinner destroys much good.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:11:2 @ Give a portion to seven, or even to eight, for you know not what evil may happen on earth.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:11:3 @ If the clouds are full of rain, they empty themselves on the earth; and if a tree falls to the south or to the north, in the place where the tree falls, there it will lie.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:11:9 @ Rejoice, O young man, in your youth, and let your heart cheer you in the days of your youth; walk in the ways of your heart and the sight of your eyes. But know that for all these things God will bring you into judgment.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:11:10 @ Remove vexation from your mind, and put away pain from your body; for youth and the dawn of life are vanity.

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:12:4 @ and the doors on the street are shut; when the sound of the grinding is low, and one rises up at the voice of a bird, and all the daughters of song are brought low;

rsv@Ecclesiastes:12:7 @ and the dust returns to the earth as it was, and the spirit returns to God who gave it.

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@Songs:4:11 @ Your lips distil nectar, my bride; honey and milk are under your tongue; the scent of your garments is like the scent of Lebanon.

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

rsv@Songs:4:13 @ Your shoots are an orchard of pomegranates with all choicest fruits, henna with nard,

rsv@Songs:4:14 @ nard and saffron, calamus and cinnamon, with all trees of frankincense, myrrh and aloes, with all chief spices--

rsv@Songs:4:15 @ a garden fountain, a well of living water, and flowing streams from Lebanon.

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:5:1 @ I come to my garden, my sister, my bride, I gather my myrrh with my spice, I eat my honeycomb with my honey, I drink my wine with my milk. Eat, O friends, and drink: drink deeply, O lovers!

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:5:11 @ His head is the finest gold; his locks are wavy, black as a raven.

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: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:6:4 @ You are beautiful as Tirzah, my love, comely as Jerusalem, terrible as an army with banners.

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:6:7 @ Your cheeks are like halves of a pomegranate behind your veil.

rsv@Songs:6:8 @ There are sixty queens and eighty concubines, and maidens without number.

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:6:10 @ "Who is this that looks forth like the dawn, fair as the moon, bright as the sun, terrible as an army with banners?"

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:6:12 @ Before I was aware, my fancy set me in a chariot beside my prince.

rsv@Songs:6:13 @ Return, return, O Shu'lammite, return, return, that we may look upon you. Why should you look upon the Shu'lammite, as upon a dance before two armies?

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:7:3 @ Your two breasts are like two fawns, twins of a gazelle.

rsv@Songs:7:4 @ Your neck is like an ivory tower. Your eyes are pools in Heshbon, by the gate of Bath-rab'bim. Your nose is like a tower of Lebanon, overlooking Damascus.

rsv@Songs:7:5 @ Your head crowns you like Carmel, and your flowing locks are like purple; a king is held captive in the tresses.

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

rsv@Songs:7:7 @ You are stately as a palm tree, and your breasts are like its clusters.

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:8:6 @ Set me as a seal upon your heart, as a seal upon your arm; for love is strong as death, jealousy is cruel as the grave. Its flashes are flashes of fire, a most vehement flame.

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:8:11 @ Solomon had a vineyard at Ba'al-ha'mon; he let out the vineyard to keepers; each one was to bring for its fruit a thousand pieces of silver.

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:8:13 @ O you who dwell in the gardens, my companions are listening for your voice; let me hear it.
