Old Testament

Job12:7 But ask now the beasts, and they shall teach thee; and the fowls of the air, and they shall tell thee:

Job12:8 Or speak to the earth, and it shall teach thee: and the fishes of the sea shall declare unto thee.

Job12:9 Who knoweth not in all these that the hand of the LORD hath wrought this?

Job12:10 In whose hand is the soul of every living thing, and the breath of all mankind.

Job12:11 Doth not the ear try words? and the mouth taste his meat?

Job12:12 With the ancient is wisdom; and in length of days understanding.

Job12:13 With him is wisdom and strength, he hath counsel and understanding.

Job12:14 Behold, he breaketh down, and it cannot be built again: he shutteth up a man, and there can be no opening.

Job12:15 Behold, he withholdeth the waters, and they dry up: also he sendeth them out, and they overturn the earth.

Job12:16 With him is strength and wisdom: the deceived and the deceiver are his.

Job12:17 He leadeth counsellors away spoiled, and maketh the judges fools.

Job12:18 He looseth the bond of kings, and girdeth their loins with a girdle.

Job12:19 He leadeth princes away spoiled, and overthroweth the mighty.

Job12:20 He removeth away the speech of the trusty, and taketh away the understanding of the aged.

Job12:21 He poureth contempt upon princes, and weakeneth the strength of the mighty.

Job12:22 He discovereth deep things out of darkness, and bringeth out to light the shadow of death.

Job12:23 He increaseth the nations, and destroyeth them: he enlargeth the nations, and straiteneth them again.

Job12:24 He taketh away the heart of the chief of the people of the earth, and causeth them to wander in a wilderness where there is no way.

Job12:25 They grope in the dark without light, and he maketh them to stagger like a drunken man.

Job13:1 Lo, mine eye hath seen all this, mine ear hath heard and understood it.

Job13:2 What ye know, the same do I know also: I am not inferior unto you.

Job13:3 Surely I would speak to the Almighty, and I desire to reason with God.

Job13:4 But ye are forgers of lies, ye are all physicians of no value.

Job13:5 O that ye would altogether hold your peace! and it should be your wisdom.

Job13:6 Hear now my reasoning, and hearken to the pleadings of my lips.

Job13:7 Will ye speak wickedly for God? and talk deceitfully for him?

Job13:8 Will ye accept his person? will ye contend for God?

Job13:9 Is it good that he should search you out? or as one man mocketh another, do ye so mock him?

Job13:10 He will surely reprove you, if ye do secretly accept persons.

Job13:11 Shall not his excellency make you afraid? and his dread fall upon you?

Job13:12 Your remembrances are like unto ashes, your bodies to bodies of clay.

Job13:13 Hold your peace, let me alone, that I may speak, and let come on me what will.

Job13:14 Wherefore do I take my flesh in my teeth, and put my life in mine hand?

Job13:15 Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him: but I will maintain mine own ways before him.

Job13:16 He also shall be my salvation: for an hypocrite shall not come before him.

Job13:17 Hear diligently my speech, and my declaration with your ears.

Job13:18 Behold now, I have ordered my cause; I know that I shall be justified.

Job13:19 Who is he that will plead with me? for now, if I hold my tongue, I shall give up the ghost.

Job13:20 Only do not two things unto me: then will I not hide myself from thee.

Job13:21 Withdraw thine hand far from me: and let not thy dread make me afraid.

Job13:22 Then call thou, and I will answer: or let me speak, and answer thou me.

Job13:23 How many are mine iniquities and sins? make me to know my transgression and my sin.

Job13:24 Wherefore hidest thou thy face, and holdest me for thine enemy?

Job13:25 Wilt thou break a leaf driven to and fro? and wilt thou pursue the dry stubble?

Job13:26 For thou writest bitter things against me, and makest me to possess the iniquities of my youth.

Job13:27 Thou puttest my feet also in the stocks, and lookest narrowly unto all my paths; thou settest a print upon the heels of my feet.

Job13:28 And he, as a rotten thing, consumeth, as a garment that is moth eaten.

Job14:1 Man that is born of a woman is of few days, and full of trouble.

Job14:2 He cometh forth like a flower, and is cut down: he fleeth also as a shadow, and continueth not.

Job14:3 And dost thou open thine eyes upon such an one, and bringest me into judgment with thee?

Job14:4 Who can bring a clean thing out of an unclean? not one.

Job14:5 Seeing his days are determined, the number of his months are with thee, thou hast appointed his bounds that he cannot pass;

Job14:6 Turn from him, that he may rest, till he shall accomplish, as an hireling, his day.

Job14:7 For there is hope of a tree, if it be cut down, that it will sprout again, and that the tender branch thereof will not cease.

Job14:8 Though the root thereof wax old in the earth, and the stock thereof die in the ground;

Job14:9 Yet through the scent of water it will bud, and bring forth boughs like a plant.

Job14:10 But man dieth, and wasteth away: yea, man giveth up the ghost, and where is he?

Job14:11 As the waters fail from the sea, and the flood decayeth and drieth up:

Job14:12 So man lieth down, and riseth not: till the heavens be no more, they shall not awake, nor be raised out of their sleep.

Job14:13 O that thou wouldest hide me in the grave, that thou wouldest keep me secret, until thy wrath be past, that thou wouldest appoint me a set time, and remember me!

Job14:14 If a man die, shall he live again? all the days of my appointed time will I wait, till my change come.

Job14:15 Thou shalt call, and I will answer thee: thou wilt have a desire to the work of thine hands.

Job14:16 For now thou numberest my steps: dost thou not watch over my sin?

Job14:17 My transgression is sealed up in a bag, and thou sewest up mine iniquity.

Job14:18 And surely the mountain falling cometh to nought, and the rock is removed out of his place.

Job14:19 The waters wear the stones: thou washest away the things which grow out of the dust of the earth; and thou destroyest the hope of man.

Job14:20 Thou prevailest for ever against him, and he passeth: thou changest his countenance, and sendest him away.

Job14:21 His sons come to honour, and he knoweth it not; and they are brought low, but he perceiveth it not of them.

Job14:22 But his flesh upon him shall have pain, and his soul within him shall mourn.

Job15:1 Then answered Eliphaz the Temanite, and said,

Job15:2 Should a wise man utter vain knowledge, and fill his belly with the east wind?

Job15:3 Should he reason with unprofitable talk? or with speeches wherewith he can do no good?

Job15:4 Yea, thou castest off fear, and restrainest prayer before God.

Job15:5 For thy mouth uttereth thine iniquity, and thou choosest the tongue of the crafty.

Job15:6 Thine own mouth condemneth thee, and not I: yea, thine own lips testify against thee.

Job15:7 Art thou the first man that was born? or wast thou made before the hills?

Job15:8 Hast thou heard the secret of God? and dost thou restrain wisdom to thyself?

Job15:9 What knowest thou, that we know not? what understandest thou, which is not in us?

Job15:10 With us are both the grayheaded and very aged men, much elder than thy father.

Job15:11 Are the consolations of God small with thee? is there any secret thing with thee?

Job15:12 Why doth thine heart carry thee away? and what do thy eyes wink at,

Job15:13 That thou turnest thy spirit against God, and lettest such words go out of thy mouth?

Job15:14 What is man, that he should be clean? and he which is born of a woman, that he should be righteous?
