nkjv@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:1:2 @ And seven sons and three daughters were born to him.

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:1:4 @ And his sons would go and feast in their houses, each on his appointed day, and would send and invite their three sisters to eat and drink with them.

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:1:7 @ And the LORD said to Satan, "From where do you come?" So Satan answered the LORD and said, "From going to and fro on the earth, and from walking back and forth on it."

nkjv@Job:1:8 @ Then 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, one who fears God and shuns evil?"

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:1:13 @ Now there was a day when his sons and daughters were eating and drinking wine in their oldest brother's house;

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

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

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:1:22 @ In all this Job did not sin nor charge God with wrong.

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:2:2 @ And the LORD said to Satan, "From where do you come?" Satan answered the LORD and said, "From going to and fro on the earth, and from walking back and forth on it."

nkjv@Job:2:3 @ Then 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, one who fears God and shuns evil? And still he holds fast to his integrity, although you incited Me against him, to destroy him without cause."

nkjv@Job:2:5 @ But stretch out Your hand now, and touch his bone and his flesh, and he will surely curse You to Your face!"

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:2:12 @ And when they raised their eyes from afar, and did not recognize him, they lifted their voices and wept; and each one tore his robe and sprinkled dust on his head toward heaven.

nkjv@Job:2:13 @ So they sat down with him on the ground seven days and seven nights, and no one spoke a word to him, for they saw that his grief was very great.

nkjv@Job:3:3 @ "May the day perish on which I was born, And the night in which it was said, "A male child is conceived.'

nkjv@Job:3:4 @ May that day be darkness; May God above not seek it, Nor the light shine upon it.

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:3:18 @ There the prisoners rest together; They do not hear the voice of the oppressor.

nkjv@Job:3:21 @ Who long for death, but it does not come, And search for it more than hidden treasures;

nkjv@Job:3:25 @ For the thing I greatly feared has come upon me, And what I dreaded has happened to me.

nkjv@Job:4:2 @ "If one attempts a word with you, will you become weary? But who can withhold himself from speaking?

nkjv@Job:4:5 @ But now it comes upon you, and you are weary; It touches you, and you are troubled.

nkjv@Job:4:6 @ Is not your reverence your confidence? And the integrity of your ways your hope?

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:4:13 @ In disquieting thoughts from the visions of the night, When deep sleep falls on men,

nkjv@Job:4:14 @ Fear came upon me, and trembling, Which made all my bones shake.

nkjv@Job:4:15 @ Then a spirit passed before my face; The hair on my body stood up.

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:4:20 @ They are broken in pieces from morning till evening; They perish forever, with no one regarding.

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:5:2 @ For wrath kills a foolish man, And envy slays a simple one.

nkjv@Job:5:4 @ His sons are far from safety, They are crushed in the gate, And there is no deliverer.

nkjv@Job:5:6 @ For affliction does not come from the dust, Nor does trouble spring from the ground;

nkjv@Job:5:10 @ He gives rain on the earth, And sends waters on the fields.

nkjv@Job:5:11 @ He sets on high those who are lowly, And those who mourn are lifted to safety.

nkjv@Job:5:13 @ He catches the wise in their own craftiness, And the counsel of the cunning comes quickly upon them.

nkjv@Job:5:14 @ They meet with darkness in the daytime, And grope at noontime as in the night.

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:5:26 @ You shall come to the grave at a full age, As a sheaf of grain ripens in its season.

nkjv@Job:6:2 @ "Oh, that my grief were fully weighed, And my calamity laid with it on the scales!

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:6:5 @ Does the wild donkey bray when it has grass, Or does the ox low over its fodder?

nkjv@Job:6:8 @ "Oh, that I might have my request, That God would grant me the thing that I long for!

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:6:11 @ "What strength do I have, that I should hope? And what is my end, that I should prolong my life?

nkjv@Job:6:12 @ Is my strength the strength of stones? Or is my flesh bronze?

nkjv@Job:6:20 @ They are disappointed because they were confident; They come there and are confused.

nkjv@Job:6:24 @ "Teach me, and I will hold my tongue; Cause me to understand wherein I have erred.

nkjv@Job:6:26 @ Do you intend to rebuke my words, And the speeches of a desperate one, which are as wind?

nkjv@Job:6:29 @ Yield now, let there be no injustice! Yes, concede, my righteousness still stands!

nkjv@Job:6:30 @ Is there injustice on my tongue? Cannot my taste discern the unsavory?

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:7:8 @ 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:7:14 @ Then You scare me with dreams And terrify me with visions,

nkjv@Job:7:16 @ I loathe my life; I would not live forever. Let me alone, For my days are but a breath.

nkjv@Job:7:17 @ "What is man, that You should exalt him, That You should set Your heart on him,

nkjv@Job:7:19 @ How long? Will You not look away from me, And let me alone till I swallow my saliva?

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:7:21 @ Why then do You not pardon my transgression, And take away my iniquity? For now I will lie down in the dust, And You will seek me diligently, But I will no longer be."

nkjv@Job:8:2 @ "How long will you speak these things, And the words of your mouth be like a strong wind?

nkjv@Job:8:4 @ If your sons have sinned against Him, He has cast them away for their transgression.

nkjv@Job:8:5 @ If you would earnestly seek God And make your supplication to the Almighty,

nkjv@Job:8:8 @ "For inquire, please, of the former age, And consider the things discovered by their fathers;

nkjv@Job:8:9 @ For we were born yesterday, and know nothing, Because our days on earth are a shadow.

nkjv@Job:8:14 @ Whose confidence shall be cut off, And whose trust is a spider's web.

nkjv@Job:8:15 @ He leans on his house, but it does not stand. He holds it fast, but it does not endure.

nkjv@Job:8:17 @ His roots wrap around the rock heap, And look for a place in the stones.

nkjv@Job:9:3 @ If one wished to contend with Him, He could not answer Him one time out of a thousand.

nkjv@Job:9:8 @ 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:9:10 @ He does great things past finding out, Yes, wonders without number.

nkjv@Job:9:14 @ "How then can I answer Him, And choose my words to reason with Him?

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:9:20 @ Though I were righteous, my own mouth would condemn me; Though I were blameless, it would prove me perverse.

nkjv@Job:9:22 @ It is all one thing; Therefore I say, "He destroys the blameless and the wicked.'

nkjv@Job:9:26 @ They pass by like swift ships, Like an eagle swooping on its prey.

nkjv@Job:9:29 @ If I am condemned, Why then do I labor in vain?

nkjv@Job:9:33 @ Nor is there any mediator between us, Who may lay his hand on us both.

nkjv@Job:10:2 @ I will say to God, "Do not condemn me; Show me why You contend with me.

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:10:7 @ Although You know that I am not wicked, And there is no one who can deliver from Your hand?

nkjv@Job:10:8 @ "Your hands have made me and fashioned me, An intricate unity; Yet You would destroy me.

nkjv@Job:10:11 @ Clothe me with skin and flesh, And knit me together with bones and sinews?

nkjv@Job:10:16 @ If my head is exalted, You hunt me like a fierce lion, And again You show Yourself awesome against me.

nkjv@Job:10:17 @ You renew Your witnesses against me, And increase Your indignation toward me; Changes and war are ever with me.

nkjv@Job:10:20 @ Are not my days few? Cease! Leave me alone, that I may take a little comfort,

nkjv@Job:11:3 @ Should your empty talk make men hold their peace? And when you mock, should no one rebuke you?

nkjv@Job:11:9 @ Their measure is longer than the earth And broader than the sea.

nkjv@Job:11:10 @ "If He passes by, imprisons, and gathers to judgment, Then who can hinder Him?

nkjv@Job:11:11 @ For He knows deceitful men; He sees wickedness also. Will He not then consider it?

nkjv@Job:11:12 @ For an empty-headed man will be wise, When a wild donkey's colt is born a man.

nkjv@Job:11:17 @ And your life would be brighter than noonday. Though you were dark, you would be like the morning.

nkjv@Job:11:19 @ You would also lie down, and no one would make you afraid; Yes, many would court your favor.

nkjv@Job:12:4 @ "I am one mocked by his friends, Who called on God, and He answered him, The just and blameless who is ridiculed.

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:12:9 @ Who among all these does not know That the hand of the LORD has done this,

nkjv@Job:12:14 @ If He breaks a thing down, it cannot be rebuilt; If He imprisons a man, there can be no release.

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:12:21 @ He pours contempt on princes, And disarms the mighty.

nkjv@Job:12:23 @ He makes nations great, and destroys them; He enlarges nations, and guides them.

nkjv@Job:13:3 @ But I would speak to the Almighty, And I desire to reason with God.

nkjv@Job:13:6 @ Now hear my reasoning, And heed the pleadings of my lips.

nkjv@Job:13:8 @ Will you show partiality for Him? Will you contend for God?

nkjv@Job:13:9 @ Will it be well when He searches you out? Or can you mock Him as one mocks a man?

nkjv@Job:13:11 @ Will not His excellence make you afraid, And the dread of Him fall upon you?

nkjv@Job:13:13 @ "Hold your peace with me, and let me speak, Then let come on me what may!

nkjv@Job:13:16 @ He also shall be my salvation, For a hypocrite could not come before Him.

nkjv@Job:13:17 @ Listen carefully to my speech, And to my declaration with your ears.

nkjv@Job:13:19 @ Who is he who will contend with me? If now I hold my tongue, I perish.

nkjv@Job:13:20 @ "Only two things do not do to me, Then I will not hide myself from You:

nkjv@Job:13:22 @ Then call, and I will answer; Or let me speak, then You respond to me.

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

nkjv@Job:14:2 @ He comes forth like a flower and fades away; He flees like a shadow and does not continue.

nkjv@Job:14:3 @ And do You open Your eyes on such a one, And bring me to judgment with Yourself?

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:14:13 @ "Oh, that You would hide me in the grave, That You would conceal me until Your wrath is past, That You would appoint me a set time, and remember me!

nkjv@Job:14:17 @ My transgression is sealed up in a bag, And You cover my iniquity.

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:14:20 @ You prevail forever against him, and he passes on; You change his countenance and send him away.

nkjv@Job:14:21 @ His sons come to honor, and he does not know it; They are brought low, and he does not perceive it.

nkjv@Job:15:3 @ Should he reason with unprofitable talk, Or by speeches with which he can do no good?

nkjv@Job:15:5 @ For your iniquity teaches your mouth, And you choose the tongue of the crafty.

nkjv@Job:15:6 @ Your own mouth condemns you, and not I; Yes, your own lips testify against you.

nkjv@Job:15:10 @ Both the gray-haired and the aged are among us, Much older than your father.

nkjv@Job:15:11 @ Are the consolations of God too small for you, And the word spoken gently with you?

nkjv@Job:15:19 @ To whom alone the land was given, And no alien passed among them:

nkjv@Job:15:21 @ Dreadful sounds are in his ears; In prosperity the destroyer comes upon him.

nkjv@Job:15:26 @ Running stubbornly against Him With his strong, embossed shield.

nkjv@Job:15:28 @ He dwells in desolate cities, In houses which no one inhabits, Which are destined to become ruins.

nkjv@Job:15:29 @ He will not be rich, Nor will his wealth continue, Nor will his possessions overspread the earth.

nkjv@Job:15:34 @ For the company of hypocrites will be barren, And fire will consume the tents of bribery.

nkjv@Job:15:35 @ They conceive trouble and bring forth futility; Their womb prepares deceit."

nkjv@Job:16:9 @ He tears me in His wrath, and hates me; He gnashes at me with His teeth; My adversary sharpens His gaze on me.

nkjv@Job:16:10 @ They gape at me with their mouth, They strike me reproachfully on the cheek, They gather together against me.

nkjv@Job:16:13 @ His archers surround me. He pierces my heart and does not pity; He pours out my gall on the ground.

nkjv@Job:16:14 @ He breaks me with wound upon wound; He runs at me like a warrior.

nkjv@Job:16:16 @ My face is flushed from weeping, And on my eyelids is the shadow of death;

nkjv@Job:16:19 @ Surely even now my witness is in heaven, And my evidence is on high.

nkjv@Job:16:21 @ Oh, that one might plead for a man with God, As a man pleads for his neighbor!

nkjv@Job:17:2 @ Are not mockers with me? And does not my eye dwell on their provocation?

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:17:8 @ Upright men are astonished at this, And the innocent stirs himself up against the hypocrite.

nkjv@Job:17:9 @ Yet the righteous will hold to his way, And he who has clean hands will be stronger and stronger.

nkjv@Job:17:10 @ "But please, come back again, all of you, For I shall not find one wise man among you.

nkjv@Job:17:14 @ If I say to corruption, "You are my father,' And to the worm, "You are my mother and my sister,'

nkjv@Job:18:2 @ "How long till you put an end to words? Gain understanding, and afterward we will speak.

nkjv@Job:18:10 @ A noose is hidden for him on the ground, And a trap for him in the road.

nkjv@Job:18:11 @ Terrors frighten him on every side, And drive him to his feet.

nkjv@Job:18:12 @ His strength is starved, And destruction is ready at his side.

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:18:19 @ He has neither son nor posterity among his people, Nor any remaining in his dwellings.

nkjv@Job:18:20 @ Those in the west are astonished at his day, As those in the east are frightened.

nkjv@Job:19:2 @ "How long will you torment my soul, And break me in pieces with words?

nkjv@Job:19:3 @ These ten times you have reproached me; You are not ashamed that you have wronged me.

nkjv@Job:19:6 @ Know then that God has wronged me, And has surrounded me with His net.

nkjv@Job:19:7 @ "If I cry out concerning wrong, I am not heard. If I cry aloud, there is no justice.

nkjv@Job:19:10 @ He breaks me down on every side, And I am gone; My hope He has uprooted like a tree.

nkjv@Job:19:11 @ He has also kindled His wrath against me, And He counts me as one of His enemies.

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:19:24 @ That they were engraved on a rock With an iron pen and lead, forever!

nkjv@Job:19:25 @ For I know that my Redeemer lives, And He shall stand at last on the earth;

nkjv@Job:20:4 @ "Do you not know this of old, Since man was placed on earth,

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

nkjv@Job:20:12 @ "Though evil is sweet in his mouth, And he hides it under his tongue,

nkjv@Job:20:16 @ He will suck the poison of cobras; The viper's tongue will slay him.

nkjv@Job:20:17 @ He will not see the streams, The rivers flowing with honey and cream.

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:20:24 @ He will flee from the iron weapon; A bronze bow will pierce him through.

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:20:26 @ Total darkness is reserved for his treasures. An unfanned fire will consume him; It shall go ill with him who is left in his tent.

nkjv@Job:20:29 @ This is the portion from God for a wicked man, The heritage appointed to him by God."

nkjv@Job:21:2 @ "Listen carefully to my speech, And let this be your consolation.

nkjv@Job:21:5 @ Look at me and be astonished; Put your hand over your mouth.

nkjv@Job:21:9 @ Their houses are safe from fear, Neither is the rod of God upon them.

nkjv@Job:21:11 @ They send forth their little ones like a flock, And their children dance.

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:21:19 @ They say, "God lays up one's iniquity for his children'; Let Him recompense him, that he may know it.

nkjv@Job:21:20 @ Let his eyes see his destruction, And let him drink of the wrath of the Almighty.

nkjv@Job:21:21 @ For what does he care about his household after him, When the number of his months is cut in half?

nkjv@Job:21:22 @ "Can anyone teach God knowledge, Since He judges those on high?

nkjv@Job:21:23 @ One dies in his full strength, Being wholly at ease and secure;

nkjv@Job:21:24 @ His pails are full of milk, And the marrow of his bones is moist.

nkjv@Job:21:27 @ "Look, I know your thoughts, And the schemes with which you would wrong me.

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:21:31 @ Who condemns his way to his face? And who repays him for what he has done?

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:22:6 @ For you have taken pledges from your brother for no reason, And stripped the naked of their clothing.

nkjv@Job:22:8 @ But the mighty man possessed the land, And the honorable man dwelt in it.

nkjv@Job:22:16 @ Who were cut down before their time, Whose foundations were swept away by a flood?

nkjv@Job:22:20 @ "Surely our adversaries are cut down, And the fire consumes their remnant.'

nkjv@Job:22:22 @ Receive, please, instruction from His mouth, And lay up His words in your heart.

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:22:28 @ You will also declare a thing, And it will be established for you; So light will shine on your ways.

nkjv@Job:22:29 @ When they cast you down, and you say, "Exaltation will come!' Then He will save the humble person.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:8 @ If you see the oppression of the poor, and the violent perversion of justice and righteousness in a province, do not marvel at the matter; for high official watches over high official, and higher officials are over them.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:14 @ But those riches perish through misfortune; When he begets a son, there is nothing in his hand.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:18 @ Here is what I have seen: It is good and fitting for one to eat and drink, and to enjoy the good of all his labor in which he toils under the sun all the days of his life which God gives him; for it is his heritage.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:20 @ For he will not dwell unduly on the days of his life, because God keeps him busy with the joy of his heart.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:6:1 @ There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, and it is common among men:

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:6:2 @ A man to whom God has given riches and wealth and honor, so that he lacks nothing for himself of all he desires; yet God does not give him power to eat of it, but a foreigner consumes it. This is vanity, and it is an evil affliction.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:6:6 @ even if he lives a thousand years twice--but has not seen goodness. Do not all go to one place?

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:6:10 @ Whatever one is, he has been named already, For it is known that he is man; And he cannot contend with Him who is mightier than he.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:1 @ A good name is better than precious ointment, And the day of death than the day of one's birth;

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:5 @ It is better to hear the rebuke of the wise Than for a man to hear the song of fools.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:7 @ Surely oppression destroys a wise man's reason, And a bribe debases the heart.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:10 @ Do not say, "Why were the former days better than these?" For you do not inquire wisely concerning this.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:12 @ For wisdom is a defense as money is a defense, But the excellence of knowledge is that wisdom gives life to those who have it.

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

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:14 @ In the day of prosperity be joyful, But in the day of adversity consider: Surely God has appointed the one as well as the other, So that man can find out nothing that will come after him.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:15 @ I have seen everything in my days of vanity: There is a just man who perishes in his righteousness, And there is a wicked man who prolongs life in his wickedness.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:20 @ For there is not a just man on earth who does good And does not sin.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:25 @ I applied my heart to know, To search and seek out wisdom and the reason of things, To know the wickedness of folly, Even of foolishness and madness.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:27 @ "Here is what I have found," says the Preacher, "Adding one thing to the other to find out the reason,

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:28 @ Which my soul still seeks but I cannot find: One man among a thousand I have found, But a woman among all these I have not found.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:29 @ Truly, this only I have found: That God made man upright, But they have sought out many schemes."

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

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:8 @ No one has power over the spirit to retain the spirit, And no one has power in the day of death. There is no release from that war, And wickedness will not deliver those who are given to it.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:9 @ All this I have seen, and applied my heart to every work that is done under the sun: There is a time in which one man rules over another to his own hurt.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:10 @ Then I saw the wicked buried, who had come and gone from the place of holiness, and they were forgotten in the city where they had so done. This also is vanity.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:11 @ Because the sentence against an evil work is not executed speedily, therefore the heart of the sons of men is fully set in them to do evil.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:12 @ Though a sinner does evil a hundred times, and his days are prolonged, yet I surely know that it will be well with those who fear God, who fear before Him.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:13 @ But it will not be well with the wicked; nor will he prolong his days, which are as a shadow, because he does not fear before God.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:14 @ There is a vanity which occurs on earth, that there are just men to whom it happens according to the work of the wicked; again, there are wicked men to whom it happens according to the work of the righteous. I said that this also is vanity.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:16 @ When I applied my heart to know wisdom and to see the business that is done on earth, even though one sees no sleep day or night,

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:17 @ then I saw all the work of God, that a man cannot find out the work that is done under the sun. For though a man labors to discover it, yet he will not find it; moreover, though a wise man attempts to know it, he will not be able to find it.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:1 @ For I considered all this in my heart, so that I could declare it all: that the righteous and the wise and their works are in the hand of God. People know neither love nor hatred by anything they see before them.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:2 @ All things come alike to all: One event happens to the righteous and the wicked; To the good, the clean, and the unclean; To him who sacrifices and him who does not sacrifice. As is the good, so is the sinner; He who takes an oath as he who fears an oath.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:3 @ This is an evil in all that is done under the sun: that one thing happens to all. Truly the hearts of the sons of men are full of evil; madness is in their hearts while they live, and after that they go to the dead.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:4 @ But for him who is joined to all the living there is hope, for a living dog is better than a dead lion.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:6 @ Also their love, their hatred, and their envy have now perished; Nevermore will they have a share In anything done under the sun.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:9 @ Live joyfully with the wife whom you love all the days of your vain life which He has given you under the sun, all your days of vanity; for that is your portion in life, and in the labor which you perform under the sun.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:11 @ I returned and saw under the sun that-- The race is not to the swift, Nor the battle to the strong, Nor bread to the wise, Nor riches to men of understanding, Nor favor to men of skill; But time and chance happen to them all.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:12 @ For man also does not know his time: Like fish taken in a cruel net, Like birds caught in a snare, So the sons of men are snared in an evil time, When it falls suddenly upon them.

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

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:18 @ Wisdom is better than weapons of war; But one sinner destroys much good."

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:1 @ Dead flies putrefy the perfumer's ointment, And cause it to give off a foul odor; So does a little folly to one respected for wisdom and honor.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:3 @ Even when a fool walks along the way, He lacks wisdom, And he shows everyone that he is a fool.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:4 @ If the spirit of the ruler rises against you, Do not leave your post; For conciliation pacifies great offenses.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:7 @ I have seen servants on horses, While princes walk on the ground like servants.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:9 @ He who quarries stones may be hurt by them, And he who splits wood may be endangered by it.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:10 @ If the ax is dull, And one does not sharpen the edge, Then he must use more strength; But wisdom brings success.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:17 @ Blessed are you, O land, when your king is the son of nobles, And your princes feast at the proper time-- For strength and not for drunkenness!

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:19 @ A feast is made for laughter, And wine makes merry; But money answers everything.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:11:1 @ Cast your bread upon the waters, For you will find it after many days.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:11:2 @ Give a serving to seven, and also to eight, For you do not know what evil will be on the earth.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:11:3 @ If the clouds are full of rain, They empty themselves upon the earth; And if a tree falls to the south or the north, In the place where the tree falls, there it shall lie.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:11:5 @ As you do not know what is the way of the wind, Or how the bones grow in the womb of her who is with child, So you do not know the works of God who makes everything.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:2 @ While the sun and the light, The moon and the stars, Are not darkened, And the clouds do not return after the rain;

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:3 @ In the day when the keepers of the house tremble, And the strong men bow down; When the grinders cease because they are few, And those that look through the windows grow dim;

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:4 @ When the doors are shut in the streets, And the sound of grinding is low; When one rises up at the sound of a bird, And all the daughters of music are brought low.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:5 @ Also they are afraid of height, And of terrors in the way; When the almond tree blossoms, The grasshopper is a burden, And desire fails. For man goes to his eternal home, And the mourners go about the streets.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:9 @ And moreover, because the Preacher was wise, he still taught the people knowledge; yes, he pondered and sought out and set in order many proverbs.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:11 @ The words of the wise are like goads, and the words of scholars are like well-driven nails, given by one Shepherd.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:12 @ And further, my son, be admonished by these. Of making many books there is no end, and much study is wearisome to the flesh.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:13 @ Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God and keep His commandments, For this is man's all.

nkjv@Songs:1:1 @ The song of songs, which is Solomon's.

nkjv@Songs:1:2 @ Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth-- For your love is better than wine.

nkjv@Songs:1:3 @ Because of the fragrance of your good ointments, Your name is ointment poured forth; Therefore the virgins love you.

nkjv@Songs:1:4 @ Draw me away! We will run after you. The king has brought me into his chambers. We will be glad and rejoice in you. We will remember 1your love more than wine. Rightly do they love 1you.

nkjv@Songs:1:5 @ I am dark, but lovely, O daughters of Jerusalem, Like the tents of Kedar, Like the curtains of Solomon.

nkjv@Songs:1:6 @ Do not look upon me, because I am dark, Because the sun has tanned me. My mother's sons were angry with me; They made me the keeper of the vineyards, But my own vineyard I have not kept.

nkjv@Songs:1:7 @ Tell me, O you whom I love, Where you feed your flock, Where you make it rest at noon. For why should I be as one who veils herself By the flocks of your companions?

nkjv@Songs:1:8 @ If you do not know, O fairest among women, Follow in the footsteps of the flock, And feed your little goats Beside the shepherds' tents.

nkjv@Songs:1:9 @ I have compared you, my love, To my filly among Pharaoh's chariots.

nkjv@Songs:1:10 @ Your cheeks are lovely with ornaments, Your neck with chains of gold.

nkjv@Songs:1:11 @ We will make you ornaments of gold With studs of silver.

nkjv@Songs:1:12 @ While the king is at his table, My spikenard sends forth its fragrance.

nkjv@Songs:1:13 @ A bundle of myrrh is my beloved to me, That lies all night between my breasts.

nkjv@Songs:1:14 @ My beloved is to me a cluster of henna blooms In the vineyards of En Gedi.

nkjv@Songs:1:15 @ Behold, you are fair, my love! Behold, you are fair! You have dove's eyes.

nkjv@Songs:1:16 @ Behold, you are handsome, my beloved! Yes, pleasant! Also our bed is green.

nkjv@Songs:1:17 @ The beams of our houses are cedar, And our rafters of fir.

nkjv@Songs:2:1 @ I am the rose of Sharon, And the lily of the valleys.

nkjv@Songs:2:2 @ Like a lily among thorns, So is my love among the daughters.

nkjv@Songs:2:3 @ Like an apple tree among the trees of the woods, So is my beloved among the sons. I sat down in his shade with great delight, And his fruit was sweet to my taste.

nkjv@Songs:2:4 @ He brought me to the banqueting house, And his banner over me was love.

nkjv@Songs:2:5 @ Sustain me with cakes of raisins, Refresh me with apples, For I am lovesick.

nkjv@Songs:2:6 @ His left hand is under my head, And his right hand embraces me.

nkjv@Songs:2:7 @ I charge you, O daughters of Jerusalem, By the gazelles or by the does of the field, Do not stir up nor awaken love Until it pleases.

nkjv@Songs:2:8 @ The voice of my beloved! Behold, he comes Leaping upon the mountains, Skipping upon the hills.

nkjv@Songs:2:9 @ My beloved is like a gazelle or a young stag. Behold, he stands behind our wall; He is looking through the windows, Gazing through the lattice.

nkjv@Songs:2:10 @ My beloved spoke, and said to me: "Rise up, my love, my fair one, And come away.

nkjv@Songs:2:11 @ For lo, the winter is past, The rain is over and gone.

nkjv@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.

nkjv@Songs:2:13 @ The fig tree puts forth her green figs, And the vines with the tender grapes Give a good smell. Rise up, my love, my fair one, And come away!

nkjv@Songs:2:14 @ "O my dove, in the clefts of the rock, In the secret places of the cliff, Let me see your face, Let me hear your voice; For your voice is sweet, And your face is lovely."

nkjv@Songs:2:15 @ Catch us the foxes, The little foxes that spoil the vines, For our vines have tender grapes.

nkjv@Songs:2:16 @ My beloved is mine, and I am his. He feeds his flock among the lilies.

nkjv@Songs:2:17 @ Until the day breaks And the shadows flee away, Turn, my beloved, And be like a gazelle Or a young stag Upon the mountains of Bether.

nkjv@Songs:3:1 @ By night on my bed I sought the one I love; I sought him, but I did not find him.

nkjv@Songs:3:2 @ "I will rise now," I said, "And go about the city; In the streets and in the squares I will seek the one I love." I sought him, but I did not find him.

nkjv@Songs:3:3 @ The watchmen who go about the city found me; I said, "Have you seen the one I love?"

nkjv@Songs:3:4 @ Scarcely had I passed by them, When I found the one I love. I held him and would not let him go, Until I had brought him to the house of my mother, And into the chamber of her who conceived me.

nkjv@Songs:3:5 @ I charge you, O daughters of Jerusalem, By the gazelles or by the does of the field, Do not stir up nor awaken love Until it pleases.

nkjv@Songs:3:6 @ Who is this coming out of the wilderness Like pillars of smoke, Perfumed with myrrh and frankincense, With all the merchant's fragrant powders?

nkjv@Songs:3:7 @ Behold, it is Solomon's couch, With sixty valiant men around it, Of the valiant of Israel.

nkjv@Songs:3:8 @ They all hold swords, Being expert in war. Every man has his sword on his thigh Because of fear in the night.

nkjv@Songs:3:9 @ Of the wood of Lebanon Solomon the King Made himself a palanquin:

nkjv@Songs:3:10 @ He made its pillars of silver, Its support of gold, Its seat of purple, Its interior paved with love By the daughters of Jerusalem.

nkjv@Songs:3:11 @ Go forth, O daughters of Zion, And see King Solomon with the crown With which his mother crowned him On the day of his wedding, The day of the gladness of his heart.

nkjv@Songs:4:1 @ Behold, you are fair, my love! Behold, you are fair! You have dove's eyes behind your veil. Your hair is like a flock of goats, Going down from Mount Gilead.

nkjv@Songs:4:2 @ Your teeth are like a flock of shorn sheep Which have come up from the washing, Every one of which bears twins, And none is barren among them.

nkjv@Songs:4:3 @ Your lips are like a strand of scarlet, And your mouth is lovely. Your temples behind your veil Are like a piece of pomegranate.

nkjv@Songs:4:4 @ Your neck is like the tower of David, Built for an armory, On which hang a thousand bucklers, All shields of mighty men.

nkjv@Songs:4:5 @ Your two breasts are like two fawns, Twins of a gazelle, Which feed among the lilies.

nkjv@Songs:4:6 @ Until the day breaks And the shadows flee away, I will go my way to the mountain of myrrh And to the hill of frankincense.

nkjv@Songs:4:7 @ You are all fair, my love, And there is no spot in you.

nkjv@Songs:4:8 @ Come with me from Lebanon, my spouse, With me from Lebanon. Look from the top of Amana, From the top of Senir and Hermon, From the lions' dens, From the mountains of the leopards.

nkjv@Songs:4:9 @ You have ravished my heart, My sister, my spouse; You have ravished my heart With one look of your eyes, With one link of your necklace.

nkjv@Songs:4:10 @ How fair is your love, My sister, my spouse! How much better than wine is your love, And the scent of your perfumes Than all spices!

nkjv@Songs:4:11 @ Your lips, O my spouse, Drip as the honeycomb; Honey and milk are under your tongue; And the fragrance of your garments Is like the fragrance of Lebanon.

nkjv@Songs:4:12 @ A garden enclosed Is my sister, my spouse, A spring shut up, A fountain sealed.

nkjv@Songs:4:13 @ Your plants are an orchard of pomegranates With pleasant fruits, Fragrant henna with spikenard,

nkjv@Songs:4:14 @ Spikenard and saffron, Calamus and cinnamon, With all trees of frankincense, Myrrh and aloes, With all the chief spices--

nkjv@Songs:4:15 @ A fountain of gardens, A well of living waters, And streams from Lebanon.

nkjv@Songs:4:16 @ Awake, O north wind, And come, O south! Blow upon my garden, That its spices may flow out. Let my beloved come to his garden And eat its pleasant fruits.

nkjv@Songs:5:1 @ I have come to my garden, my sister, my spouse; I have gathered my myrrh with my spice; I have eaten my honeycomb with my honey; I have drunk my wine with my milk. Eat, O friends! Drink, yes, drink deeply, O beloved ones!

nkjv@Songs:5:2 @ I sleep, but my heart is awake; It is the voice of my beloved! He knocks, saying, "Open for me, my sister, my love, My dove, my perfect one; For my head is covered with dew, My locks with the drops of the night."

nkjv@Songs:5:3 @ I have taken off my robe; How can I put it on again? I have washed my feet; How can I defile them?

nkjv@Songs:5:4 @ My beloved put his hand By the latch of the door, And my heart yearned for him.

nkjv@Songs:5:5 @ I arose to open for my beloved, And my hands dripped with myrrh, My fingers with liquid myrrh, On the handles of the lock.

nkjv@Songs:5:6 @ I opened for my beloved, But my beloved had turned away and was gone. My heart leaped up when he spoke. I sought him, but I could not find him; I called him, but he gave me no answer.

nkjv@Songs:5:7 @ The watchmen who went about the city found me. They struck me, they wounded me; The keepers of the walls Took my veil away from me.

nkjv@Songs:5:8 @ I charge you, O daughters of Jerusalem, If you find my beloved, That you tell him I am lovesick!

nkjv@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 so charge us?

nkjv@Songs:5:10 @ My beloved is white and ruddy, Chief among ten thousand.

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

nkjv@Songs:5:12 @ His eyes are like doves By the rivers of waters, Washed with milk, And fitly set.

nkjv@Songs:5:13 @ His cheeks are like a bed of spices, Banks of scented herbs. His lips are lilies, Dripping liquid myrrh.

nkjv@Songs:5:14 @ His hands are rods of gold Set with beryl. His body is carved ivory Inlaid with sapphires.

nkjv@Songs:5:15 @ His legs are pillars of marble Set on bases of fine gold. His countenance is like Lebanon, Excellent as the cedars.

nkjv@Songs:5:16 @ His mouth is most sweet, Yes, he is altogether lovely. This is my beloved, And this is my friend, O daughters of Jerusalem!

nkjv@Songs:6:1 @ Where has your beloved gone, O fairest among women? Where has your beloved turned aside, That we may seek him with you?

nkjv@Songs:6:2 @ My beloved has gone to his garden, To the beds of spices, To feed his flock in the gardens, And to gather lilies.

nkjv@Songs:6:3 @ I am my beloved's, And my beloved is mine. He feeds his flock among the lilies.

nkjv@Songs:6:4 @ O my love, you are as beautiful as Tirzah, Lovely as Jerusalem, Awesome as an army with banners!

nkjv@Songs:6:5 @ Turn your eyes away from me, For they have overcome me. Your hair is like a flock of goats Going down from Gilead.

nkjv@Songs:6:6 @ Your teeth are like a flock of sheep Which have come up from the washing; Every one bears twins, And none is barren among them.

nkjv@Songs:6:7 @ Like a piece of pomegranate Are your temples behind your veil.

nkjv@Songs:6:8 @ There are sixty queens And eighty concubines, And virgins without number.

nkjv@Songs:6:9 @ My dove, my perfect one, Is the only one, The only one of her mother, The favorite of the one who bore her. The daughters saw her And called her blessed, The queens and the concubines, And they praised her.

nkjv@Songs:6:10 @ Who is she who looks forth as the morning, Fair as the moon, Clear as the sun, Awesome as an army with banners?

nkjv@Songs:6:11 @ I went down to the garden of nuts To see the verdure of the valley, To see whether the vine had budded And the pomegranates had bloomed.

nkjv@Songs:6:12 @ Before I was even aware, My soul had made me As the chariots of my noble people.

nkjv@Songs:6:13 @ Return, return, O Shulamite; Return, return, that we may look upon you! What would you see in the Shulamite-- As it were, the dance of the two camps?

nkjv@Songs:7:1 @ How beautiful are your feet in sandals, O prince's daughter! The curves of your thighs are like jewels, The work of the hands of a skillful workman.

nkjv@Songs:7:2 @ Your navel is a rounded goblet; It lacks no blended beverage. Your waist is a heap of wheat Set about with lilies.

nkjv@Songs:7:3 @ Your two breasts are like two fawns, Twins of a gazelle.

nkjv@Songs:7:4 @ Your neck is like an ivory tower, Your eyes like the pools in Heshbon By the gate of Bath Rabbim. Your nose is like the tower of Lebanon Which looks toward Damascus.

nkjv@Songs:7:5 @ Your head crowns you like Mount Carmel, And the hair of your head is like purple; A king is held captive by your tresses.

nkjv@Songs:7:6 @ How fair and how pleasant you are, O love, with your delights!

nkjv@Songs:7:7 @ This stature of yours is like a palm tree, And your breasts like its clusters.

nkjv@Songs:7:8 @ I said, "I will go up to the palm tree, I will take hold of its branches." Let now your breasts be like clusters of the vine, The fragrance of your breath like apples,

nkjv@Songs:7:9 @ And the roof of your mouth like the best wine. The wine goes down smoothly for my beloved, Moving gently the lips of sleepers.

nkjv@Songs:7:10 @ I am my beloved's, And his desire is toward me.

nkjv@Songs:7:11 @ Come, my beloved, Let us go forth to the field; Let us lodge in the villages.

nkjv@Songs:7:12 @ Let us get up early to the vineyards; Let us see if the vine has budded, Whether the grape blossoms are open, And the pomegranates are in bloom. There I will give you my love.

nkjv@Songs:7:13 @ The mandrakes give off a fragrance, And at our gates are pleasant fruits, All manner, new and old, Which I have laid up for you, my beloved.

nkjv@Songs:8:1 @ Oh, that you were like my brother, Who nursed at my mother's breasts! If I should find you outside, I would kiss you; I would not be despised.

nkjv@Songs:8:2 @ I would lead you and bring you Into the house of my mother, She who used to instruct me. I would cause you to drink of spiced wine, Of the juice of my pomegranate.

nkjv@Songs:8:3 @ His left hand is under my head, And his right hand embraces me.

nkjv@Songs:8:4 @ I charge you, O daughters of Jerusalem, Do not stir up nor awaken love Until it pleases.

nkjv@Songs:8:5 @ Who is this coming up from the wilderness, Leaning upon her beloved? I awakened you under the apple tree. There your mother brought you forth; There she who bore you brought you forth.

nkjv@Songs:8:6 @ Set me as a seal upon your heart, As a seal upon your arm; For love is as strong as death, Jealousy as cruel as the grave; Its flames are flames of fire, A most vehement flame.

nkjv@Songs:8:7 @ Many waters cannot quench love, Nor can the floods drown it. If a man would give for love All the wealth of his house, It would be utterly despised.

nkjv@Songs:8:8 @ We have a little sister, And she has no breasts. What shall we do for our sister In the day when she is spoken for?

nkjv@Songs:8:9 @ If she is a wall, We will build upon her A battlement of silver; And if she is a door, We will enclose her With boards of cedar.

nkjv@Songs:8:10 @ I am a wall, And my breasts like towers; Then I became in his eyes As one who found peace.

nkjv@Songs:8:11 @ Solomon had a vineyard at Baal Hamon; He leased the vineyard to keepers; Everyone was to bring for its fruit A thousand silver coins.

nkjv@Songs:8:12 @ My own vineyard is before me. You, O Solomon, may have a thousand, And those who tend its fruit two hundred.

nkjv@Songs:8:13 @ You who dwell in the gardens, The companions listen for your voice-- Let me hear it!

nkjv@Songs:8:14 @ Make haste, my beloved, And be like a gazelle Or a young stag On the mountains of spices.

nkjv@Isaiah:1:1 @ The vision of Isaiah the son of Amoz, which he saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah.
