Old Testament

Job21:23 One dieth in his full strength, being wholly at ease and quiet.

Job21:24 His breasts are full of milk, and his bones are moistened with marrow.

Job21:25 And another dieth in the bitterness of his soul, and never eateth with pleasure.

Job21:26 They shall lie down alike in the dust, and the worms shall cover them.

Job21:27 Behold, I know your thoughts, and the devices which ye wrongfully imagine against me.

Job21:28 For ye say, Where is the house of the prince? and where are the dwelling places of the wicked?

Job21:29 Have ye not asked them that go by the way? and do ye not know their tokens,

Job21:30 That the wicked is reserved to the day of destruction? they shall be brought forth to the day of wrath.

Job21:31 Who shall declare his way to his face? and who shall repay him what he hath done?

Job21:32 Yet shall he be brought to the grave, and shall remain in the tomb.

Job21:33 The clods of the valley shall be sweet unto him, and every man shall draw after him, as there are innumerable before him.

Job21:34 How then comfort ye me in vain, seeing in your answers there remaineth falsehood?

Job22:1 Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered and said,

Job22:2 Can a man be profitable unto God, as he that is wise may be profitable unto himself?

Job22:3 Is it any pleasure to the Almighty, that thou art righteous? or is it gain to him, that thou makest thy ways perfect?

Job22:4 Will he reprove thee for fear of thee? will he enter with thee into judgment?

Job22:5 Is not thy wickedness great? and thine iniquities infinite?

Job22:6 For thou hast taken a pledge from thy brother for nought, and stripped the naked of their clothing.

Job22:7 Thou hast not given water to the weary to drink, and thou hast withholden bread from the hungry.

Job22:8 But as for the mighty man, he had the earth; and the honourable man dwelt in it.

Job22:9 Thou hast sent widows away empty, and the arms of the fatherless have been broken.

Job22:10 Therefore snares are round about thee, and sudden fear troubleth thee;

Job22:11 Or darkness, that thou canst not see; and abundance of waters cover thee.

Job22:12 Is not God in the height of heaven? and behold the height of the stars, how high they are!

Job22:13 And thou sayest, How doth God know? can he judge through the dark cloud?

Job22:14 Thick clouds are a covering to him, that he seeth not; and he walketh in the circuit of heaven.

Job22:15 Hast thou marked the old way which wicked men have trodden?

Job22:16 Which were cut down out of time, whose foundation was overflown with a flood:

Job22:17 Which said unto God, Depart from us: and what can the Almighty do for them?

Job22:18 Yet he filled their houses with good things: but the counsel of the wicked is far from me.

Job22:19 The righteous see it, and are glad: and the innocent laugh them to scorn.

Job22:20 Whereas our substance is not cut down, but the remnant of them the fire consumeth.

Job22:21 Acquaint now thyself with him, and be at peace: thereby good shall come unto thee.

Job22:22 Receive, I pray thee, the law from his mouth, and lay up his words in thine heart.

Job22:23 If thou return to the Almighty, thou shalt be built up, thou shalt put away iniquity far from thy tabernacles.

Job22:24 Then shalt thou lay up gold as dust, and the gold of Ophir as the stones of the brooks.

Job22:25 Yea, the Almighty shall be thy defence, and thou shalt have plenty of silver.

Job22:26 For then shalt thou have thy delight in the Almighty, and shalt lift up thy face unto God.

Job22:27 Thou shalt make thy prayer unto him, and he shall hear thee, and thou shalt pay thy vows.

Job22:28 Thou shalt also decree a thing, and it shall be established unto thee: and the light shall shine upon thy ways.

Job22:29 When men are cast down, then thou shalt say, There is lifting up; and he shall save the humble person.

Job22:30 He shall deliver the island of the innocent: and it is delivered by the pureness of thine hands.

Job23:1 Then Job answered and said,

Job23:2 Even to day is my complaint bitter: my stroke is heavier than my groaning.

Job23:3 Oh that I knew where I might find him! that I might come even to his seat!

Job23:4 I would order my cause before him, and fill my mouth with arguments.

Job23:5 I would know the words which he would answer me, and understand what he would say unto me.

Job23:6 Will he plead against me with his great power? No; but he would put strength in me.

Job23:7 There the righteous might dispute with him; so should I be delivered for ever from my judge.

Job23:8 Behold, I go forward, but he is not there; and backward, but I cannot perceive him:

Job23:9 On the left hand, where he doth work, but I cannot behold him: he hideth himself on the right hand, that I cannot see him:

Job23:10 But he knoweth the way that I take: when he hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold.

Job23:11 My foot hath held his steps, his way have I kept, and not declined.

Job23:12 Neither have I gone back from the commandment of his lips; I have esteemed the words of his mouth more than my necessary food.

Job23:13 But he is in one mind, and who can turn him? and what his soul desireth, even that he doeth.

Job23:14 For he performeth the thing that is appointed for me: and many such things are with him.

Job23:15 Therefore am I troubled at his presence: when I consider, I am afraid of him.

Job23:16 For God maketh my heart soft, and the Almighty troubleth me:

Job23:17 Because I was not cut off before the darkness, neither hath he covered the darkness from my face.

Job24:1 Why, seeing times are not hidden from the Almighty, do they that know him not see his days?

Job24:2 Some remove the landmarks; they violently take away flocks, and feed thereof.

Job24:3 They drive away the ass of the fatherless, they take the widow's ox for a pledge.

Job24:4 They turn the needy out of the way: the poor of the earth hide themselves together.

Job24:5 Behold, as wild asses in the desert, go they forth to their work; rising betimes for a prey: the wilderness yieldeth food for them and for their children.

Job24:6 They reap every one his corn in the field: and they gather the vintage of the wicked.

Job24:7 They cause the naked to lodge without clothing, that they have no covering in the cold.

Job24:8 They are wet with the showers of the mountains, and embrace the rock for want of a shelter.

Job24:9 They pluck the fatherless from the breast, and take a pledge of the poor.

Job24:10 They cause him to go naked without clothing, and they take away the sheaf from the hungry;

Job24:11 Which make oil within their walls, and tread their winepresses, and suffer thirst.

Job24:12 Men groan from out of the city, and the soul of the wounded crieth out: yet God layeth not folly to them.

Job24:13 They are of those that rebel against the light; they know not the ways thereof, nor abide in the paths thereof.

Job24:14 The murderer rising with the light killeth the poor and needy, and in the night is as a thief.

Job24:15 The eye also of the adulterer waiteth for the twilight, saying, No eye shall see me: and disguiseth his face.

Job24:16 In the dark they dig through houses, which they had marked for themselves in the daytime: they know not the light.

Job24:17 For the morning is to them even as the shadow of death: if one know them, they are in the terrors of the shadow of death.

Job24:18 He is swift as the waters; their portion is cursed in the earth: he beholdeth not the way of the vineyards.

Job24:19 Drought and heat consume the snow waters: so doth the grave those which have sinned.

Job24:20 The womb shall forget him; the worm shall feed sweetly on him; he shall be no more remembered; and wickedness shall be broken as a tree.
