Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:1 - And Job further continued and said in his parable,
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:2 - As God lives, who has thus judged me; and the Almighty, who has embittered my soul;
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:3 - verily, while my breath is yet in me, and the breath of God which remains to me is in my nostrils,
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:4 - my lips shall not speak evil words, neither shall my soul meditate unrighteous thoughts.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:5 - Far be it from me that I should justify you till I die; for I will not let go my innocence,
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:6 - but keeping fast to my righteousness I will by no means let it go: for I am not conscious to myself of having done any thing amiss.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:7 - Nay rather, but let mine enemies be as the overthrow of the ungodly, and they that rise up against me, as the destruction of transgressors.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:8 - For what is the hope of the ungodly, that he holds to it? will he indeed trust in the Lord and be saved?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:9 - Will God hear his prayer? or, when distress has come upon him,
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:10 - has he any confidence before him? or will God hear him as he calls upon him?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:11 - Yet now I will tell you what is in the hand of the Lord: I will not lie concerning the things which are with the Almighty.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:12 - Behold, ye all know that ye are adding vanity to vanity.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:13 - This is the portion of an ungodly man from the Lord, and the possession of oppressors shall come upon them from the Almighty.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:14 - And if their children be many, they shall be for slaughter: and if they grow up, they shall beg.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:15 - And they that survive of him shall utterly perish, and no one shall pity their widows.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:16 - Even if he should gather silver as earth, and prepare gold as clay;
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:17 - all these things shall the righteous gain, and the truehearted shall possess his wealth.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:18 - And his house is gone like moths, and like a spider's web.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:19 - The rich man shall lie down, and shall not continue: he has opened his eyes, and he is not.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:20 - Pains have come upon him as water, and darkness has carried him away by night.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:21 - And a burning wind shall catch him, and he shall depart, and it shall utterly drive him out of his place.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:22 - And God shall cast trouble upon him, and not spare: he would fain flee out of his hand.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:23 - He shall cause men to clap their hands against them, and shall hiss him out of his place.
