rsv@Job:1:1 @ There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was blameless and upright, one who feared God, and turned away from evil.

rsv@Job:1:3 @ He had seven thousand sheep, three thousand camels, five hundred yoke of oxen, and five hundred she-asses, and very many servants; so that this man was the greatest of all the people of the east.

rsv@Job:1:4 @ His sons used to go and hold a feast in the house of each on his day; and they would send and invite their three sisters to eat and drink with them.

rsv@Job:1:5 @ And when the days of the feast had run their course, Job would send and sanctify them, and he would rise early in the morning and offer burnt offerings according to the number of them all; for Job said, "It may be that my sons have sinned, and cursed God in their hearts." Thus Job did continually.

rsv@Job:1:6 @ Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan also came among them.

rsv@Job:1:7 @ The LORD said to Satan, "Whence have you come?" Satan answered the LORD, "From going to and fro on the earth, and from walking up and down on it."

rsv@Job:1:8 @ And the LORD said to Satan, "Have you considered my servant Job, that there is none like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man, who fears God and turns away from evil?"

rsv@Job:1:9 @ Then Satan answered the LORD, "Does Job fear God for nought?

rsv@Job:1:10 @ Hast thou not put a hedge about him and his house and all that he has, on every side? Thou hast blessed the work of his hands, and his possessions have increased in the land.

rsv@Job:1:11 @ But put forth thy hand now, and touch all that he has, and he will curse thee to thy face."

rsv@Job:1:12 @ And the LORD said to Satan, "Behold, all that he has is in your power; only upon himself do not put forth your hand." So Satan went forth from the presence of the LORD.

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

rsv@Job:1:18 @ While he was yet speaking, there came another, and said, "Your sons and daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother's house;

rsv@Job:1:19 @ and behold, a great wind came across the wilderness, and struck the four corners of the house, and it fell upon the young people, and they are dead; and I alone have escaped to tell you."

rsv@Job:2:1 @ Again there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan also came among them to present himself before the LORD.

rsv@Job:2:2 @ And the LORD said to Satan, "Whence have you come?" Satan answered the LORD, "From going to and fro on the earth, and from walking up and down on it."

rsv@Job:2:3 @ And the LORD said to Satan, "Have you considered my servant Job, that there is none like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man, who fears God and turns away from evil? He still holds fast his integrity, although you moved me against him, to destroy him without cause."

rsv@Job:2:4 @ Then Satan answered the LORD, "Skin for skin! All that a man has he will give for his life.

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

rsv@Job:2:7 @ So Satan went forth from the presence of the LORD, and afflicted Job with loathsome sores from the sole of his foot to the crown of his head.

rsv@Job:2:8 @ And he took a potsherd with which to scrape himself, and sat among the ashes.

rsv@Job:2:10 @ But he said to her, "You speak as one of the foolish women would speak. Shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil?" In all this Job did not sin with his lips.

rsv@Job:2:11 @ Now when Job's three friends heard of all this evil that had come upon him, they came each from his own place, Eli'phaz the Te'manite, Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Na'amathite. They made an appointment together to come to condole with him and comfort him.

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

rsv@Job:3:4 @ Let that day be darkness! May God above not seek it, nor light shine upon 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:3:11 @ "Why did I not die at birth, come forth from the womb and expire?

rsv@Job:3:12 @ Why did the knees receive me? Or why the breasts, that I should suck?

rsv@Job:3:13 @ For then I should have lain down and been quiet; I should have slept; then I should have been at rest,

rsv@Job:3:16 @ Or why was I not as a hidden untimely birth, as infants that never see the light?

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

rsv@Job:3:18 @ There the prisoners are at ease together; they hear not the voice of the taskmaster.

rsv@Job:3:19 @ The small and the great are there, and the slave is free from his master.

rsv@Job:3:20 @ "Why is light given to him that is in misery, and life to the bitter in soul,

rsv@Job:3:21 @ who long for death, but it comes not, and dig for it more than for hid treasures;

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:3:26 @ I am not at ease, nor am I quiet; I have no rest; but trouble comes."

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

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

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

rsv@Job:4:11 @ The strong lion perishes for lack of prey, and the whelps of the lioness are scattered.

rsv@Job:4:19 @ how much more those who dwell in houses of clay, whose foundation is in the dust, who are crushed before the moth.

rsv@Job:4:21 @ If their tent-cord is plucked up within them, do they not die, and that without wisdom?'

rsv@Job:5:2 @ Surely vexation kills the fool, and jealousy slays the simple.

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:5:9 @ 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:5:12 @ He frustrates the devices of the crafty, so that their hands achieve no success.

rsv@Job:5:14 @ They meet with darkness in the daytime, and grope at noonday as in the night.

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

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

rsv@Job:5:22 @ At destruction and famine you shall laugh, and shall not fear the beasts of the earth.

rsv@Job:5:23 @ For you shall be in league with the stones of the field, and the beasts of the field shall be at peace with you.

rsv@Job:5:24 @ You shall know that your tent is safe, and you shall inspect your fold and miss nothing.

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:6:2 @ "O that my vexation were weighed, and all my calamity laid in the balances!

rsv@Job:6:6 @ Can that which is tasteless be eaten without salt, or is there any taste in the slime of the purslane?

rsv@Job:6:7 @ My appetite refuses to touch them; they are as food that is loathsome to me.

rsv@Job:6:8 @ "O that I might have my request, and that God would grant my desire;

rsv@Job:6:9 @ that it would please God to crush me, that he would let loose his hand and cut me off!

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:6:11 @ What is my strength, that I should wait? And what is my end, that I should be patient?

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

rsv@Job:6:17 @ In time of heat they disappear; when it is hot, they vanish from their place.

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

rsv@Job:6:26 @ Do you think that you can reprove words, when the speech of a despairing man is wind?

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

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

rsv@Job:6:29 @ Turn, I pray, let no wrong be done. Turn now, my vindication is at stake.

rsv@Job:7:7 @ "Remember that my life is a breath; my eye will never again see good.

rsv@Job:7:12 @ Am I the sea, or a sea monster, that thou settest a guard over me?

rsv@Job:7:15 @ so that I would choose strangling and death rather than my bones.

rsv@Job:7:16 @ I loathe my life; I would not live for ever. Let me alone, for my days are a breath.

rsv@Job:7:17 @ What is man, that thou dost make so much of him, and that thou dost set thy mind upon him,

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:8:2 @ "How long will you say these things, and the words of your mouth be a great wind?

rsv@Job:8:5 @ If you will seek God and make supplication to the Almighty,

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

rsv@Job:8:7 @ And though your beginning was small, your latter days will be very great.

rsv@Job:8:8 @ "For inquire, I pray you, of bygone ages, and consider what the fathers have found;

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:8:22 @ Those who hate you will be clothed with shame, and the tent of the wicked will be no more."

rsv@Job:9:2 @ "Truly I know that it is so: But how can a man be just before God?

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

rsv@Job:9:12 @ Behold, he snatches away; who can hinder him? who will say to him, `u'?

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

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

rsv@Job:9:18 @ he will not let me get my breath, but fills me with bitterness.

rsv@Job:9:19 @ If it is a contest of strength, behold him! If it is a matter of justice, who can summon him?

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

rsv@Job:9:23 @ When disaster brings sudden death, he mocks at the calamity of the innocent.

rsv@Job:9:32 @ For he is not a man, as I am, that I might answer him, that we should come to trial together.

rsv@Job:10:1 @ "I loathe my life; I will give free utterance to my complaint; I will speak in the bitterness of my soul.

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

rsv@Job:10:7 @ although thou knowest that I am not guilty, and there is none to deliver out of thy hand?

rsv@Job:10:9 @ Remember that thou hast made me of clay; and wilt thou turn me to dust again?

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

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:10:18 @ "Why didst thou bring me forth from the womb? Would that I had died before any eye had seen me,

rsv@Job:10:20 @ Are not the days of my life few? Let me alone, that I may find a little comfort

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

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

rsv@Job:11:5 @ But oh, that God would speak, and open his lips to you,

rsv@Job:11:6 @ and that he would tell you the secrets of wisdom! For he is manifold in understanding. Know then that God exacts of you less than your guilt deserves.

rsv@Job:11:8 @ It is higher than heaven --what can you do? Deeper than Sheol--what can you know?

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

rsv@Job:11:19 @ You will lie down, and none will make you afraid; many will entreat your favor.

rsv@Job:11:20 @ But the eyes of the wicked will fail; all way of escape will be lost to them, and their hope is to breathe their last."

rsv@Job:12:5 @ In the thought of one who is at ease there is contempt for misfortune; it is ready for those whose feet slip.

rsv@Job:12:6 @ The tents of robbers are at peace, and those who provoke God are secure, who bring their god in their hand.

rsv@Job:12:9 @ Who among all these does not know that the hand of the LORD has done this?

rsv@Job:12:10 @ In his hand is the life of every living thing and the breath of all mankind.

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

rsv@Job:12:15 @ If he withholds the waters, they dry up; if he sends them out, they overwhelm the land.

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:13:2 @ What you know, I also know; I am not inferior to you.

rsv@Job:13:5 @ Oh that you would keep silent, and it would be your wisdom!

rsv@Job:13:13 @ "Let me have silence, and I will speak, and let come on me what may.

rsv@Job:13:16 @ This will be my salvation, that a godless man shall not come before him.

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:13:19 @ Who is there that will contend with me? For then I would be silent and die.

rsv@Job:13:27 @ Thou puttest my feet in the stocks, and watchest all my paths; thou settest a bound to the soles of my feet.

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

rsv@Job:14:1 @ "Man that is born of a woman is of few days, and full of trouble.

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:14:6 @ look away from him, and desist, that he may enjoy, like a hireling, his day.

rsv@Job:14:7 @ "For there is hope for a tree, if it be cut down, that it will sprout again, and that its shoots will not cease.

rsv@Job:14:9 @ yet at the scent of water it will bud and put forth branches like a young plant.

rsv@Job:14:10 @ But man dies, and is laid low; man breathes his last, and where is he?

rsv@Job:14:11 @ As waters fail from a lake, and a river wastes away and dries up,

rsv@Job:14:13 @ Oh that thou wouldest hide me in Sheol, that thou wouldest conceal me until thy wrath be past, that thou wouldest appoint me a set time, and remember me!

rsv@Job:14:16 @ For then thou wouldest number my steps, thou wouldest not keep watch over my sin;

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: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:15:13 @ that you turn your spirit against God, and let such words go out of your mouth?

rsv@Job:15:14 @ What is man, that he can be clean? Or he that is born of a woman, that he can be righteous?

rsv@Job:15:16 @ how much less one who is abominable and corrupt, a man who drinks iniquity like water!

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

rsv@Job:15:18 @ (what wise men have told, and their fathers have not hidden,

rsv@Job:15:20 @ The wicked man writhes in pain all his days, through all the years that are laid up for the ruthless.

rsv@Job:15:22 @ He does not believe that he will return out of darkness, and he is destined for the sword.

rsv@Job:15:23 @ 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:15:27 @ because he has covered his face with his fat, and gathered fat upon his loins,

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

rsv@Job:16:3 @ Shall windy words have an end? Or what provokes you that you answer?

rsv@Job:16:4 @ I also could speak as you do, if you were in my place; I could join words together against you, and shake my head at you.

rsv@Job:16:7 @ Surely now God has worn me out; he has made desolate all my company.

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

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

rsv@Job:16:12 @ 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:16:19 @ Even now, behold, my witness is in heaven, and he that vouches for me is on high.

rsv@Job:16:21 @ that he would maintain the right of a man with God, like that of a man with his neighbor.

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

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

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

rsv@Job:17:9 @ Yet the righteous holds to his way, and he that has clean hands grows stronger and stronger.

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

rsv@Job:18:10 @ A rope is hid for him in the ground, a trap for him in the path.

rsv@Job:18:11 @ Terrors frighten him on every side, and chase him at his heels.

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

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

rsv@Job:18:16 @ His roots dry up beneath, and his branches wither above.

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

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

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

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

rsv@Job:19:8 @ 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:19:17 @ I am repulsive to my wife, loathsome to the sons of my own mother.

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

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

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

rsv@Job:19:24 @ Oh that with an iron pen and lead they were graven in the rock for ever!

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

rsv@Job:19:29 @ be afraid of the sword, for wrath brings the punishment of the sword, that you may know there is a judgment."

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

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

rsv@Job:20:13 @ though he is loath to let it go, and holds it in his mouth,

rsv@Job:20:21 @ There was nothing left after he had eaten; therefore his prosperity will not endure.

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

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

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

rsv@Job:21:4 @ As for me, is my complaint against man? Why should I not be impatient?

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

rsv@Job:21:15 @ What is the Almighty, that we should serve him? And what profit do we get if we pray to him?'

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

rsv@Job:21:20 @ Let their own eyes see their destruction, and let them drink of the wrath of the Almighty.

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:21:23 @ One dies in full prosperity, being wholly at ease and secure,

rsv@Job:21:32 @ When he is borne to the grave, watch is kept over his tomb.

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

rsv@Job:22:5 @ Is not your wickedness great? There is no end to your iniquities.

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

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

rsv@Job:22:16 @ They were snatched away before their time; their foundation was washed away.

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:22:21 @ "Agree with God, and be at peace; thereby good will come to you.

rsv@Job:23:3 @ Oh, that I knew where I might find him, that I might come even to his seat!

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

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

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

rsv@Job:23:13 @ But he is unchangeable and who can turn him? What he desires, that he does.

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

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

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

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

rsv@Ecclesiastes:2:22 @ What has a man from all the toil and strain with which he toils beneath the sun?

rsv@Ecclesiastes:2:23 @ For all his days are full of pain, and his work is a vexation; even in the night his mind does not rest. This also is vanity.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:2:24 @ There is nothing better for a man than that he should eat and drink, and find enjoyment in his toil. This also, I saw, is from the hand of God;

rsv@Ecclesiastes:2:25 @ for apart from him who can eat or who can have enjoyment?

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

rsv@Ecclesiastes:3:1 @ For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven:

rsv@Ecclesiastes:3:2 @ a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted;

rsv@Ecclesiastes:3:5 @ a time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;

rsv@Ecclesiastes:3:8 @ a time to love, and a time to hate; a time for war, and a time for peace.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:3:9 @ What gain has the worker from his toil?

rsv@Ecclesiastes:3:10 @ I have seen the business that God has given to the sons of men to be busy with.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:3:11 @ He has made everything beautiful in its time; also he has put eternity into man's mind, yet so that he cannot find out what God has done from the beginning to the end.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:3:12 @ I know that there is nothing better for them than to be happy and enjoy themselves as long as they live;

rsv@Ecclesiastes:3:13 @ also that it is God's gift to man that every one should eat and drink and take pleasure in all his toil.

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

rsv@Ecclesiastes:3:15 @ That which is, already has been; that which is to be, already has been; and God seeks what has been driven away.

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

rsv@Ecclesiastes:3:17 @ I said in my heart, God will judge the righteous and the wicked, for he has appointed a time for every matter, and for every work.

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:3:19 @ For the fate of the sons of men and the fate of beasts is the same; as one dies, so dies the other. They all have the same breath, and man has no advantage over the beasts; for all is vanity.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:3:22 @ So I saw that there is nothing better than that a man should enjoy his work, for that is his lot; who can bring him to see what will be after him?

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

rsv@Ecclesiastes:4:2 @ And I thought the dead who are already dead more fortunate than the living who are still alive;

rsv@Ecclesiastes:4:3 @ but better than both is he who has not yet been, and has not seen the evil deeds that are done under the sun.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:4:4 @ Then I saw that all toil and all skill in work come from a man's envy of his neighbor. This also is vanity and a striving after wind.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:4:5 @ The fool folds his hands, and eats his own flesh.

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

rsv@Ecclesiastes:4:15 @ I saw all the living who move about under the sun, as well as that youth, who was to stand in his place;

rsv@Ecclesiastes:4:16 @ there was no end of all the people; he was over all of them. Yet those who come later will not rejoice in him. Surely this also is vanity and a striving after wind.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:5:1 @ Guard your steps when you go to the house of God; to draw near to listen is better than to offer the sacrifice of fools; for they do not know that they are doing evil.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:5:4 @ When you vow a vow to God, do not delay paying it; for he has no pleasure in fools. Pay what you vow.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:5:5 @ It is better that you should not vow than that you should vow and not pay.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:5:6 @ Let not your mouth lead you into sin, and do not say before the messenger that it was a mistake; why should God be angry at your voice, and destroy the work of your hands?

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

rsv@Ecclesiastes:5:9 @ But in all, a king is an advantage to a land with cultivated fields.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:5:10 @ He who loves money will not be satisfied with money; nor he who loves wealth, with gain: this also is vanity.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:5:11 @ When goods increase, they increase who eat them; and what gain has their owner but to see them with his eyes?

rsv@Ecclesiastes:5:12 @ Sweet is the sleep of a laborer, whether he eats little or much; but the surfeit of the rich will not let him sleep.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:5:14 @ and those riches were lost in a bad venture; and he is father of a son, but he has nothing in his hand.

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

rsv@Ecclesiastes:5:17 @ and spent all his days in darkness and grief, in much vexation and sickness and resentment?

rsv@Ecclesiastes:5:18 @ Behold, what I have seen to be good and to be fitting is to eat and drink and find enjoyment in all the toil with which one toils under the sun the few days of his life which God has given him, for this is his lot.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:6:2 @ a man to whom God gives wealth, possessions, and honor, so that he lacks nothing of all that he desires, yet God does not give him power to enjoy them, but a stranger enjoys them; this is vanity; it is a sore affliction.

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

rsv@Ecclesiastes:6:5 @ moreover it has not seen the sun or known anything; yet it finds rest rather than he.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:6:7 @ All the toil of man is for his mouth, yet his appetite is not satisfied.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:6:8 @ For what advantage has the wise man over the fool? And what does the poor man have who knows how to conduct himself before the living?

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

rsv@Ecclesiastes:6:11 @ The more words, the more vanity, and what is man the better?

rsv@Ecclesiastes:6:12 @ For who knows what is good for man while he lives the few days of his vain life, which he passes like a shadow? For who can tell man what will be after him under the sun?

rsv@Ecclesiastes:7:1 @ A good name is better than precious ointment; and the day of death, than the day of birth.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:7:8 @ Better is the end of a thing than its beginning; and the patient in spirit is better than the proud in spirit.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:7:10 @ Say not, "Why were the former days better than these?" For it is not from wisdom that you ask this.

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

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

rsv@Ecclesiastes:7:14 @ In the day of prosperity be joyful, and in the day of adversity consider; God has made the one as well as the other, so that man may not find out anything that will be after him.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:7:18 @ It is good that you should take hold of this, and from that withhold not your hand; for he who fears God shall come forth from them all.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:7:19 @ Wisdom gives strength to the wise man more than ten rulers that are in a city.

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

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:7:27 @ Behold, this is what I found, says the Preacher, adding one thing to another to find the sum,

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

rsv@Ecclesiastes:7:29 @ Behold, this alone I found, that God made man upright, but they have sought out many devices.

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

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

rsv@Ecclesiastes:8:3 @ go from his presence, do not delay when the matter is unpleasant, for he does whatever he pleases.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:8:4 @ For the word of the king is supreme, and who may say to him, "What are you doing?"

rsv@Ecclesiastes:8:6 @ For every matter has its time and way, although man's trouble lies heavy upon him.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:8:7 @ For he does not know what is to be, for who can tell him how it will be?

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

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

rsv@Ecclesiastes:8:12 @ 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:8:14 @ 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:8:15 @ And I commend enjoyment, for man has no good thing under the sun but to eat and drink, and enjoy himself, for this will go with him in his toil through the days of life which God gives him under the sun.

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:8:17 @ then I saw all the work of God, that man cannot find out the work that is done under the sun. However much man may toil in seeking, he will not find it out; even though a wise man claims to know, he cannot find it out.

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

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

rsv@Ecclesiastes:9:9 @ Enjoy life with the wife whom you love, all the days of your vain life which he has given you under the sun, because that is your portion in life and in your toil at which you toil under the sun.

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:9:11 @ Again I saw that under the sun the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, nor bread to the wise, nor riches to the intelligent, nor favor to the men of skill; but time and chance happen to them all.

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

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

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

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

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

rsv@Ecclesiastes:10:3 @ Even when the fool walks on the road, he lacks sense, and he says to every one that he is a fool.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:10:4 @ If the anger of the ruler rises against you, do not leave your place, for deference will make amends for great offenses.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:10:14 @ A fool multiplies words, though no man knows what is to be, and who can tell him what will be after him?

rsv@Ecclesiastes:10:15 @ The toil of a fool wearies him, so that he does not know the way to the city.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:10:17 @ Happy are you, O land, when your king is the son of free men, and your princes feast at the proper time, for strength, and not for drunkenness!

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

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

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

rsv@Ecclesiastes:11:8 @ For if a man lives many years, let him rejoice in them all; but let him remember that the days of darkness will be many. All that comes is vanity.

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:12:1 @ Remember also your Creator in the days of your youth, before the evil days come, and the years draw nigh, when you will say, "I have no pleasure in them";

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:12:5 @ they are afraid also of what is high, and terrors are in the way; the almond tree blossoms, the grasshopper drags itself along and desire fails; because man goes to his eternal home, and the mourners go about the streets;

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

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

rsv@Ecclesiastes:12:13 @ The end of the matter; all has been heard. Fear God, and keep his commandments; for this is the whole duty of man.

rsv@Songs:1:2 @ O that you would kiss me with the kisses of your mouth! For your love is better than wine,

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

rsv@Songs:1:7 @ Tell me, you whom my soul loves, where you pasture your flock, where you make it lie down at noon; for why should I be like one who wanders beside the flocks of your companions?

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

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

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

rsv@Songs:2:7 @ I adjure you, O daughters of Jerusalem, by the gazelles or the hinds of the field, that you stir not up nor awaken love until it please.

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

rsv@Songs:2:15 @ Catch us the foxes, the little foxes, that spoil the vineyards, for our vineyards are in blossom."

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

rsv@Songs:3:3 @ The watchmen found me, as they went about in the city. "Have you seen him whom my soul loves?"

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

rsv@Songs:3:5 @ I adjure you, O daughters of Jerusalem, by the gazelles or the hinds of the field, that you stir not up nor awaken love until it please.

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

rsv@Songs:3:8 @ all girt with swords and expert in war, each with his sword at his thigh, against alarms by night.

rsv@Songs:3:10 @ He made its posts of silver, its back of gold, its seat of purple; it was lovingly wrought within by the daughters of Jerusalem.

rsv@Songs:4:1 @ Behold, you are beautiful, my love, behold, you are beautiful! Your eyes are doves behind your veil. Your hair is like a flock of goats, moving down the slopes of Gilead.

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

rsv@Songs:4:3 @ Your lips are like a scarlet thread, and your mouth is lovely. Your cheeks are like halves of a pomegranate behind your veil.

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

rsv@Songs:4:6 @ Until the day breathes and the shadows flee, I will hie me to the mountain of myrrh and the hill of frankincense.

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

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:5:3 @ 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:5:7 @ The watchmen found me, as they went about in the city; they beat me, they wounded me, they took away my mantle, those watchmen of the walls.

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

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

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

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

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

rsv@Songs:6:5 @ Turn away your eyes from me, for they disturb me-- Your hair is like a flock of goats, moving down the slopes of Gilead.

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:6:9 @ 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:6:13 @ 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:7:2 @ Your navel is a rounded bowl that never lacks mixed wine. Your belly is a heap of wheat, encircled with lilies.

rsv@Songs:7:4 @ 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:7:7 @ You are stately as a palm tree, and your breasts are like its clusters.

rsv@Songs:7:8 @ I say I will climb the palm tree and lay hold of its branches. Oh, may your breasts be like clusters of the vine, and the scent of your breath like apples,

rsv@Songs:7:9 @ and your kisses like the best wine that goes down smoothly, gliding over lips and teeth.

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

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

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

rsv@Songs:8:4 @ I adjure you, O daughters of Jerusalem, that you stir not up nor awaken love until it please.

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

rsv@Songs:8:6 @ 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:8:7 @ Many waters cannot quench love, neither can floods drown it. If a man offered for love all the wealth of his house, it would be utterly scorned.

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

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.
