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:1:2 @ There were born to him seven sons and three daughters.
rsv@Job:1:3 @ He had seven thousand sheep, three thousand camels, five hundred yoke of oxen, and five hundred she-asses, and very many servants; so that this man was the greatest of all the people of the east.
rsv@Job:1:4 @ His sons used to go and hold a feast in the house of each on his day; and they would send and invite their three sisters to eat and drink with them.
rsv@Job:1:5 @ And when the days of the feast had run their course, Job would send and sanctify them, and he would rise early in the morning and offer burnt offerings according to the number of them all; for Job said, "It may be that my sons have sinned, and cursed God in their hearts." Thus Job did continually.
rsv@Job:1:7 @ The LORD said to Satan, "Whence have you come?" Satan answered the LORD, "From going to and fro on the earth, and from walking up and down on it."
rsv@Job:1:8 @ And the LORD said to Satan, "Have you considered my servant Job, that there is none like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man, who fears God and turns away from evil?"
rsv@Job:1:9 @ Then Satan answered the LORD, "Does Job fear God for nought?
rsv@Job:1:10 @ Hast thou not put a hedge about him and his house and all that he has, on every side? Thou hast blessed the work of his hands, and his possessions have increased in the land.
rsv@Job:1:11 @ 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:1:15 @ and the Sabe'ans fell upon them and took them, and slew the servants with the edge of the sword; and I alone have escaped to tell you."
rsv@Job:1:16 @ While he was yet speaking, there came another, and said, "The fire of God fell from heaven and burned up the sheep and the servants, and consumed them; and I alone have escaped to tell you."
rsv@Job:1:17 @ While he was yet speaking, there came another, and said, "The Chalde'ans formed three companies, and made a raid upon the camels and took them, and slew the servants with the edge of the sword; and I alone have escaped to tell you."
rsv@Job:1:18 @ 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:1:20 @ Then Job arose, and rent his robe, and shaved his head, and fell upon the ground, and worshiped.
rsv@Job:1:21 @ And he said, "Naked I came from my mother's womb, and naked shall I return; the LORD gave, and the LORD has taken away; blessed be the name of the LORD."
rsv@Job:2:2 @ And the LORD said to Satan, "Whence have you come?" Satan answered the LORD, "From going to and fro on the earth, and from walking up and down on it."
rsv@Job:2:3 @ And the LORD said to Satan, "Have you considered my servant Job, that there is none like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man, who fears God and turns away from evil? He still holds fast his integrity, although you moved me against him, to destroy him without cause."
rsv@Job:2:5 @ But put forth thy hand now, and touch his bone and his flesh, and he will curse thee to thy face."
rsv@Job:2:6 @ And the LORD said to Satan, "Behold, he is in your power; only spare his life."
rsv@Job:2:9 @ Then his wife said to him, "Do you still hold fast your integrity? Curse God, and die."
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:2:12 @ And when they saw him from afar, they did not recognize him; and they raised their voices and wept; and they rent their robes and sprinkled dust upon their heads toward heaven.
rsv@Job: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:3:1 @ After this Job opened his mouth and cursed the day of his birth.
rsv@Job:3:4 @ Let that day be darkness! May God above not seek it, nor light shine upon it.
rsv@Job:3:5 @ Let gloom and deep darkness claim it. Let clouds dwell upon it; let the blackness of the day terrify it.
rsv@Job:3:6 @ That night--let thick darkness seize it! let it not rejoice among the days of the year, let it not come into the number of the months.
rsv@Job:3:7 @ Yea, let that night be barren; let no joyful cry be heard in it.
rsv@Job:3:8 @ Let those curse it who curse the day, who are skilled to rouse up Levi'athan.
rsv@Job:3:9 @ Let the stars of its dawn be dark; let it hope for light, but have none, nor see the eyelids of the morning;
rsv@Job:3:10 @ because it did not shut the doors of my mother's womb, nor hide trouble from my eyes.
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:3:14 @ with kings and counselors of the earth who rebuilt ruins for themselves,
rsv@Job:3:15 @ or with princes who had gold, who filled their houses with silver.
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:3:20 @ "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:4:2 @ "If one ventures a word with you, will you be offended? Yet who can keep from speaking?
rsv@Job:4:3 @ Behold, you have instructed many, and you have strengthened the weak hands.
rsv@Job:4:4 @ Your words have upheld him who was stumbling, and you have made firm the feeble knees.
rsv@Job:4:5 @ But now it has come to you, and you are impatient; it touches you, and you are dismayed.
rsv@Job:4:6 @ Is not your fear of God your confidence, and the integrity of your ways your hope?
rsv@Job:4:7 @ "Think now, who that was innocent ever perished? Or where were the upright cut off+?
rsv@Job:4:8 @ As I have seen, those who plow iniquity and sow trouble reap the same.
rsv@Job:4:9 @ By the breath of God they perish, and by the blast of his anger they are consumed.
rsv@Job:4:10 @ The roar of the lion, the voice of the fierce lion, the teeth of the young lions, are broken.
rsv@Job:4:12 @ "Now a word was brought to me stealthily, my ear received the whisper of it.
rsv@Job:4:13 @ Amid thoughts from visions of the night, when deep sleep falls on men,
rsv@Job:4:14 @ dread came upon me, and trembling, which made all my bones shake.
rsv@Job:4:15 @ A spirit glided past my face; the hair of my flesh stood up.
rsv@Job:4:16 @ It stood still, but I could not discern its appearance. A form was before my eyes; there was silence, then I heard a voice:
rsv@Job:4:17 @ `an mortal man be righteous before God? Can a man be pure before his Maker?
rsv@Job:4:18 @ Even in his servants he puts no trust, and his angels he charges with error;
rsv@Job:4:19 @ how much more those who dwell in houses of clay, whose foundation is in the dust, who are crushed before the moth.
rsv@Job:4:20 @ Between morning and evening they are destroyed; they perish for ever without any regarding it.
rsv@Job:4:21 @ If their tent-cord is plucked up within them, do they not die, and that without wisdom?'
rsv@Job:5:1 @ "Call now; is there any one who will answer you? To which of the holy ones will you turn?
rsv@Job:5:2 @ Surely vexation kills the fool, and jealousy slays the simple.
rsv@Job:5:3 @ I have seen the fool taking root, but suddenly I cursed his dwelling.
rsv@Job:5:4 @ His sons are far from safety, they are crushed in the gate, and there is no one to deliver them.
rsv@Job:5:5 @ His harvest the hungry eat, and he takes it even out of thorns; and the thirsty pant after his wealth.
rsv@Job:5:6 @ For affliction does not come from the dust, nor does trouble sprout from the ground;
rsv@Job:5:7 @ but man is born to trouble as the sparks fly upward.
rsv@Job:5:8 @ "As for me, I would seek God, and to God would I commit my cause;
rsv@Job:5:9 @ who does great things and unsearchable, marvelous things without number:
rsv@Job:5:10 @ he gives rain upon the earth and sends waters upon the fields;
rsv@Job:5:11 @ he sets on high those who are lowly, and those who mourn are lifted to safety.
rsv@Job:5:12 @ He frustrates the devices of the crafty, so that their hands achieve no success.
rsv@Job:5:13 @ He takes the wise in their own craftiness; and the schemes of the wily are brought to a quick end.
rsv@Job:5:15 @ But he saves the fatherless from their mouth, the needy from the hand of the mighty.
rsv@Job:5:16 @ So the poor have hope, and injustice shuts her mouth.
rsv@Job:5:18 @ For he wounds, but he binds up; he smites, but his hands heal.
rsv@Job:5:19 @ He will deliver you from six troubles; in seven there shall no evil touch you.
rsv@Job:5:20 @ In famine he will redeem you from death, and in war from the power of the sword.
rsv@Job:5:21 @ You shall be hid from the scourge of the tongue, and shall not fear destruction when it comes.
rsv@Job:5:22 @ At destruction and famine you shall laugh, and shall not fear the beasts of the earth.
rsv@Job:5:23 @ 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:5:26 @ You shall come to your grave in ripe old age, as a shock of grain comes up to the threshing floor in its season.
rsv@Job:5:27 @ Lo, this we have searched out; it is true. Hear, and know it for your good."
rsv@Job:6:3 @ For then it would be heavier than the sand of the sea; therefore my words have been rash.
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:6:13 @ In truth I have no help in me, and any resource is driven from me.
rsv@Job:6:15 @ My brethren are treacherous as a torrent-bed, as freshets that pass away,
rsv@Job:6:18 @ The caravans turn aside from their course; they go up into the waste, and perish.
rsv@Job:6:20 @ They are disappointed because they were confident; they come thither and are confounded.
rsv@Job:6:21 @ Such you have now become to me; you see my calamity, and are afraid.
rsv@Job:6:22 @ Have I said, `Make me a gift'? Or, `From your wealth offer a bribe for me'?
rsv@Job:6:24 @ "Teach me, and I will be silent; make me understand how I have erred.
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:6:30 @ Is there any wrong on my tongue? Cannot my taste discern calamity?
rsv@Job:7:1 @ "Has not man a hard service upon earth, and are not his days like the days of a hireling?
rsv@Job:7:4 @ When I lie down I say, `en I lie down I say, "When shall I arise?' But the night is long, and I am full of tossing till the dawn.
rsv@Job:7:5 @ My flesh is clothed with worms and dirt; my skin hardens, then breaks out afresh.
rsv@Job:7:6 @ My days are swifter than a weaver's shuttle, and come to their end without hope.
rsv@Job:7:8 @ The eye of him who sees me will behold me no more; while thy eyes are upon me, I shall be gone.
rsv@Job:7:9 @ As the cloud fades and vanishes, so he who goes down to Sheol does not come up;
rsv@Job:7:10 @ he returns no more to his house, nor does his place know him any more.
rsv@Job:7:11 @ "Therefore I will not restrain my mouth; I will speak in the anguish of my spirit; I will complain in the bitterness of my soul.
rsv@Job:7:12 @ Am I the sea, or a sea monster, that thou settest a guard over me?
rsv@Job:7:13 @ When I say, `en I say, "My bed will comfort me, my couch will ease my complaint,'
rsv@Job:7:14 @ then thou dost scare me with dreams and terrify me with visions,
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:7:19 @ How long wilt thou not look away from me, nor let me alone till I swallow my spittle?
rsv@Job:7:20 @ If I sin, what do I do to thee, thou watcher of men? Why hast thou made me thy mark? Why have I become a burden to thee?
rsv@Job:7:21 @ Why dost thou not pardon my transgression and take away my iniquity? For now I shall lie in the earth; thou wilt seek me, but I shall not be."
rsv@Job:8:1 @ Then Bildad the Shuhite answered:
rsv@Job:8:2 @ "How long will you say these things, and the words of your mouth be a great wind?
rsv@Job:8:3 @ Does God pervert justice? Or does the Almighty pervert the right?
rsv@Job:8:4 @ If your children have sinned against him, he has delivered them into the power of their transgression.
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:8:9 @ for we are but of yesterday, and know nothing, for our days on earth are a shadow.
rsv@Job:8:10 @ Will they not teach you, and tell you, and utter words out of their understanding?
rsv@Job:8:11 @ "Can papyrus grow where there is no marsh? Can reeds flourish where there is no water?
rsv@Job:8:12 @ While yet in flower and not cut down, they wither before any other plant.
rsv@Job:8:13 @ Such are the paths of all who forget God; the hope of the godless man shall perish.
rsv@Job:8:14 @ His confidence breaks in sunder, and his trust is a spider's web.
rsv@Job:8:15 @ He leans against his house, but it does not stand; he lays hold of it, but it does not endure.
rsv@Job:8:16 @ He thrives before the sun, and his shoots spread over his garden.
rsv@Job:8:17 @ His roots twine about the stoneheap; he lives among the rocks.
rsv@Job:8:18 @ If he is destroyed from his place, then it will deny him, saying, `ng, "I have never seen you.'
rsv@Job:8:19 @ Behold, this is the joy of his way; and out of the earth others will spring.
rsv@Job:8:21 @ He will yet fill your mouth with laughter, and your lips with shouting.
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:9:3 @ If one wished to contend with him, one could not answer him once in a thousand times.
rsv@Job:9:4 @ He is wise in heart, and mighty in strength --who has hardened himself against him, and succeeded?--
rsv@Job:9:5 @ he who removes mountains, and they know it not, when he overturns them in his anger;
rsv@Job:9:6 @ who shakes the earth out of its place, and its pillars tremble;
rsv@Job:9:7 @ who commands the sun, and it does not rise; who seals up the stars;
rsv@Job:9:8 @ who alone stretched out the heavens, and trampled the waves of the sea;
rsv@Job:9:9 @ who made the Bear and Orion, the Plei'ades and the chambers of the south;
rsv@Job:9:10 @ who does great things beyond understanding, and marvelous things without number.
rsv@Job:9:11 @ Lo, he passes by me, and I see him not; he moves on, but I do not perceive him.
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:9:15 @ Though I am innocent, I cannot answer him; I must appeal for mercy to my accuser.
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:9:17 @ For he crushes me with a tempest, and multiplies my wounds without cause;
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:9:20 @ Though I am innocent, my own mouth would condemn me; though I am blameless, he would prove me perverse.
rsv@Job:9:23 @ When disaster brings sudden death, he mocks at the calamity of the innocent.
rsv@Job:9:24 @ The earth is given into the hand of the wicked; he covers the faces of its judges-- if it is not he, who then is it?
rsv@Job:9:25 @ "My days are swifter than a runner; they flee away, they see no good.
rsv@Job:9:27 @ If I say, ` I say, "I will forget my complaint, I will put off my sad countenance, and be of good cheer,'
rsv@Job:9:28 @ I become afraid of all my suffering, for I know thou wilt not hold me innocent.
rsv@Job:9:31 @ yet thou wilt plunge me into a pit, and my own clothes will abhor me.
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:9:33 @ There is no umpire between us, who might lay his hand upon us both.
rsv@Job:9:35 @ Then I would speak without fear of him, for I am not so in myself.
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:10:2 @ I will say to God, Do not condemn me; let me know why thou dost contend against me.

rsv@Job:10:7 @ although thou knowest that I am not guilty, and there is none to deliver out of thy hand?
rsv@Job:10:8 @ Thy hands fashioned and made me; and now thou dost turn about and destroy me.
rsv@Job:10:9 @ Remember that thou hast made me of clay; and wilt thou turn me to dust again?
rsv@Job:10:10 @ Didst thou not pour me out like milk and curdle me like cheese?
rsv@Job:10:11 @ Thou didst clothe me with skin and flesh, and knit me together with bones and sinews.

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:12:20 @ He deprives of speech those who are trusted, and takes away the discernment of the elders.
rsv@Job:12:21 @ He pours contempt on princes, and looses the belt of the strong.
rsv@Job:12:22 @ He uncovers the deeps out of darkness, and brings deep darkness to light.
rsv@Job:12:24 @ He takes away understanding from the chiefs of the people of the earth, and makes them wander in a pathless waste.
rsv@Job:12:25 @ They grope in the dark without light; and he makes them stagger like a drunken man.
