Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:1 - And Job again took up his parable, and said,
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:2 -
As God liveth, who hath taken away my right,
And the Almighty, who hath vexed my soul
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:3 -
(For my life is yet whole in me,
And the spirit of God is in my nostrils);
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:4 -
Surely my lips shall not speak unrighteousness,
Neither shall my tongue utter deceit.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:5 -
Far be it from me that I should justify you:
Till I die I will not put away mine integrity from me.

My righteousness I hold fast, and will not let it go:
My heart shall not reproach me so long as I live.

For what is the hope of the godless, though he get him gain,
When God taketh away his soul?

And call upon God at all times?

That which is with the Almighty will I not conceal.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:12 -
Behold, all ye yourselves have seen it;
Why then are ye become altogether vain?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:13 -
This is the portion of a wicked man with God,
And the heritage of oppressors, which they receive from the Almighty:

If his children be multiplied, it is for the sword;
And his offspring shall not be satisfied with bread.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:15 -
Those that remain of him shall be buried in death,
And his widows shall make no lamentation.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:16 -
Though he heap up silver as the dust,
And prepare raiment as the clay;
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:17 -
He may prepare it, but the just shall put it on,
And the innocent shall divide the silver.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:18 -
He buildeth his house as the moth,
And as a booth which the keeper maketh.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:19 -
He lieth down rich, but he shall not be gathered to his fathers;
He openeth his eyes, and he is not.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:20 -
Terrors overtake him like waters;
A tempest stealeth him away in the night.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:21 -
The east wind carrieth him away, and he departeth;
And it sweepeth him out of his place.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:22 -
For God shall hurl at him, and not spare:
He would fain flee out of his hand.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:23 -
Men shall clap their hands at him,
And shall hiss him out of his place.
