Job 40:1-42:17
2 Corinthians 5:11-21
Psalm 45:1-17
Proverbs 22:14

 

Job 40:1  Moreover the LORD answered Job, and said, 

Job 40:2  Shall he that contendeth with the Almighty instruct him? he that reproveth God, let him answer it. 

Job 40:3  Then Job answered the LORD, and said, 

Job 40:4  Behold, I am vile; what shall I answer thee? I will lay mine hand upon my mouth. 

Job 40:5  Once have I spoken; but I will not answer: yea, twice; but I will proceed no further. 

Job 40:6  Then answered the LORD unto Job out of the whirlwind, and said, 

Job 40:7  Gird up thy loins now like a man: I will demand of thee, and declare thou unto me. 

Job 40:8  Wilt thou also disannul my judgment? wilt thou condemn me, that thou mayest be righteous? 

Job 40:9  Hast thou an arm like God? or canst thou thunder with a voice like him? 

Job 40:10  Deck thyself now with majesty and excellency; and array thyself with glory and beauty. 

Job 40:11  Cast abroad the rage of thy wrath: and behold every one that is proud, and abase him. 

Job 40:12  Look on every one that is proud, and bring him low; and tread down the wicked in their place. 

Job 40:13  Hide them in the dust together; and bind their faces in secret. 

Job 40:14  Then will I also confess unto thee that thine own right hand can save thee. 

Job 40:15  Behold now behemoth, which I made with thee; he eateth grass as an ox. 

Job 40:16  Lo now, his strength is in his loins, and his force is in the navel of his belly. 

Job 40:17  He moveth his tail like a cedar: the sinews of his stones are wrapped together. 

Job 40:18  His bones are as strong pieces of brass; his bones are like bars of iron. 

Job 40:19  He is the chief of the ways of God: he that made him can make his sword to approach unto him. 

Job 40:20  Surely the mountains bring him forth food, where all the beasts of the field play. 

Job 40:21  He lieth under the shady trees, in the covert of the reed, and fens. 

Job 40:22  The shady trees cover him with their shadow; the willows of the brook compass him about. 

Job 40:23  Behold, he drinketh up a river, and hasteth not: he trusteth that he can draw up Jordan into his mouth. 

Job 40:24  He taketh it with his eyes: his nose pierceth through snares. 

 

Job 41:1  Canst thou draw out leviathan with an hook? or his tongue with a cord which thou lettest down? 

Job 41:2  Canst thou put an hook into his nose? or bore his jaw through with a thorn? 

Job 41:3  Will he make many supplications unto thee? will he speak soft words unto thee? 

Job 41:4  Will he make a covenant with thee? wilt thou take him for a servant for ever? 

Job 41:5  Wilt thou play with him as with a bird? or wilt thou bind him for thy maidens? 

Job 41:6  Shall the companions make a banquet of him? shall they part him among the merchants? 

Job 41:7  Canst thou fill his skin with barbed irons? or his head with fish spears? 

Job 41:8  Lay thine hand upon him, remember the battle, do no more. 

Job 41:9  Behold, the hope of him is in vain: shall not one be cast down even at the sight of him? 

Job 41:10  None is so fierce that dare stir him up: who then is able to stand before me? 

Job 41:11  Who hath prevented me, that I should repay him? whatsoever is under the whole heaven is mine. 

Job 41:12  I will not conceal his parts, nor his power, nor his comely proportion. 

Job 41:13  Who can discover the face of his garment? or who can come to him with his double bridle? 

Job 41:14  Who can open the doors of his face? his teeth are terrible round about. 

Job 41:15  His scales are his pride, shut up together as with a close seal. 

Job 41:16  One is so near to another, that no air can come between them. 

Job 41:17  They are joined one to another, they stick together, that they cannot be sundered. 

Job 41:18  By his neesings a light doth shine, and his eyes are like the eyelids of the morning. 

Job 41:19  Out of his mouth go burning lamps, and sparks of fire leap out. 

Job 41:20  Out of his nostrils goeth smoke, as out of a seething pot or caldron. 

Job 41:21  His breath kindleth coals, and a flame goeth out of his mouth. 

Job 41:22  In his neck remaineth strength, and sorrow is turned into joy before him. 

Job 41:23  The flakes of his flesh are joined together: they are firm in themselves; they cannot be moved. 

Job 41:24  His heart is as firm as a stone; yea, as hard as a piece of the nether millstone. 

Job 41:25  When he raiseth up himself, the mighty are afraid: by reason of breakings they purify themselves. 

Job 41:26  The sword of him that layeth at him cannot hold: the spear, the dart, nor the habergeon. 

Job 41:27  He esteemeth iron as straw, and brass as rotten wood. 

Job 41:28  The arrow cannot make him flee: slingstones are turned with him into stubble. 

Job 41:29  Darts are counted as stubble: he laugheth at the shaking of a spear. 

Job 41:30  Sharp stones are under him: he spreadeth sharp pointed things upon the mire. 

Job 41:31  He maketh the deep to boil like a pot: he maketh the sea like a pot of ointment. 

Job 41:32  He maketh a path to shine after him; one would think the deep to be hoary. 

Job 41:33  Upon earth there is not his like, who is made without fear. 

Job 41:34  He beholdeth all high things: he is a king over all the children of pride. 

 

Job 42:1  Then Job answered the LORD, and said, 

Job 42:2  I know that thou canst do every thing, and that no thought can be withholden from thee. 

Job 42:3  Who is he that hideth counsel without knowledge? therefore have I uttered that I understood not; things too wonderful for me, which I knew not. 

Job 42:4  Hear, I beseech thee, and I will speak: I will demand of thee, and declare thou unto me. 

Job 42:5  I have heard of thee by the hearing of the ear: but now mine eye seeth thee. 

Job 42:6  Wherefore I abhor myself, and repent in dust and ashes. 

Job 42:7  And it was so, that after the LORD had spoken these words unto Job, the LORD said to Eliphaz the Temanite, My wrath is kindled against thee, and against thy two friends: for ye have not spoken of me the thing that is right, as my servant Job hath. 

Job 42:8  Therefore take unto you now seven bullocks and seven rams, and go to my servant Job, and offer up for yourselves a burnt offering; and my servant Job shall pray for you: for him will I accept: lest I deal with you after your folly, in that ye have not spoken of me the thing which is right, like my servant Job. 

Job 42:9  So Eliphaz the Temanite and Bildad the Shuhite and Zophar the Naamathite went, and did according as the LORD commanded them: the LORD also accepted Job. 

Job 42:10  And the LORD turned the captivity of Job, when he prayed for his friends: also the LORD gave Job twice as much as he had before. 

Job 42:11  Then came there unto him all his brethren, and all his sisters, and all they that had been of his acquaintance before, and did eat bread with him in his house: and they bemoaned him, and comforted him over all the evil that the LORD had brought upon him: every man also gave him a piece of money, and every one an earring of gold. 

Job 42:12  So the LORD blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning: for he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she asses. 

Job 42:13  He had also seven sons and three daughters. 

Job 42:14  And he called the name of the first, Jemima; and the name of the second, Kezia; and the name of the third, Kerenhappuch. 

Job 42:15  And in all the land were no women found so fair as the daughters of Job: and their father gave them inheritance among their brethren. 

Job 42:16  After this lived Job an hundred and forty years, and saw his sons, and his sons' sons, even four generations. 

Job 42:17  So Job died, being old and full of days. 

 

2Co 5:11  Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we persuade men; but we are made manifest unto God; and I trust also are made manifest in your consciences. 

2Co 5:12  For we commend not ourselves again unto you, but give you occasion to glory on our behalf, that ye may have somewhat to answer them which glory in appearance, and not in heart. 

2Co 5:13  For whether we be beside ourselves, it is to God: or whether we be sober, it is for your cause. 

2Co 5:14  For the love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge, that if one died for all, then were all dead: 

2Co 5:15  And that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again. 

2Co 5:16  Wherefore henceforth know we no man after the flesh: yea, though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now henceforth know we him no more. 

2Co 5:17  Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. 

2Co 5:18  And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; 

2Co 5:19  To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. 

2Co 5:20  Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God. 

2Co 5:21  For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him. 

 

Psa 45:1  To the chief Musician upon Shoshannim, for the sons of Korah, Maschil, A Song of loves. My heart is inditing a good matter: I speak of the things which I have made touching the king: my tongue is the pen of a ready writer. 

Psa 45:2  Thou art fairer than the children of men: grace is poured into thy lips: therefore God hath blessed thee for ever. 

Psa 45:3  Gird thy sword upon thy thigh, O most mighty, with thy glory and thy majesty. 

Psa 45:4  And in thy majesty ride prosperously because of truth and meekness and righteousness; and thy right hand shall teach thee terrible things. 

Psa 45:5  Thine arrows are sharp in the heart of the king's enemies; whereby the people fall under thee. 

Psa 45:6  Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: the sceptre of thy kingdom is a right sceptre. 

Psa 45:7  Thou lovest righteousness, and hatest wickedness: therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows. 

Psa 45:8  All thy garments smell of myrrh, and aloes, and cassia, out of the ivory palaces, whereby they have made thee glad. 

Psa 45:9  Kings' daughters were among thy honourable women: upon thy right hand did stand the queen in gold of Ophir. 

Psa 45:10  Hearken, O daughter, and consider, and incline thine ear; forget also thine own people, and thy father's house; 

Psa 45:11  So shall the king greatly desire thy beauty: for he is thy Lord; and worship thou him. 

Psa 45:12  And the daughter of Tyre shall be there with a gift; even the rich among the people shall intreat thy favour. 

Psa 45:13  The king's daughter is all glorious within: her clothing is of wrought gold. 

Psa 45:14  She shall be brought unto the king in raiment of needlework: the virgins her companions that follow her shall be brought unto thee. 

Psa 45:15  With gladness and rejoicing shall they be brought: they shall enter into the king's palace. 

Psa 45:16  Instead of thy fathers shall be thy children, whom thou mayest make princes in all the earth. 

Psa 45:17  I will make thy name to be remembered in all generations: therefore shall the people praise thee for ever and ever. 

 

Pro 22:14  The mouth of strange women is a deep pit: he that is abhorred of the LORD shall fall therein.

Job 37:1  At this also my heart trembleth, and is moved out of his place.

Job 37:3  He directeth it under the whole heaven, and his lightning unto the ends of the earth. 

Job 37:4  After it a voice roareth: he thundereth with the voice of his excellency; and he will not stay them when his voice is heard. 

Job 37:5  God thundereth marvellously with his voice; great things doeth he, which we cannot comprehend. 

Job 37:6  For he saith to the snow, Be thou on the earth; likewise to the small rain, and to the great rain of his strength. 

Job 37:7  He sealeth up the hand of every man; that all men may know his work. 

Job 37:8  Then the beasts go into dens, and remain in their places. 

Job 37:9  Out of the south cometh the whirlwind: and cold out of the north. 

Job 37:10  By the breath of God frost is given: and the breadth of the waters is straitened. 

Job 37:11  Also by watering he wearieth the thick cloud: he scattereth his bright cloud: 

Job 37:12  And it is turned round about by his counsels: that they may do whatsoever he commandeth them upon the face of the world in the earth. 

Job 37:13  He causeth it to come, whether for correction, or for his land, or for mercy. 

Job 37:14  Hearken unto this, O Job: stand still, and consider the wondrous works of God. 

Job 37:15  Dost thou know when God disposed them, and caused the light of his cloud to shine? 

Job 37:16  Dost thou know the balancings of the clouds, the wondrous works of him which is perfect in knowledge? 

Job 37:17  How thy garments are warm, when he quieteth the earth by the south wind? 

Job 37:18  Hast thou with him spread out the sky, which is strong, and as a molten looking glass? 

Job 37:19  Teach us what we shall say unto him; for we cannot order our speech by reason of darkness. 

Job 37:20  Shall it be told him that I speak? if a man speak, surely he shall be swallowed up. 

Job 37:21  And now men see not the bright light which is in the clouds: but the wind passeth, and cleanseth them. 

Job 37:22  Fair weather cometh out of the north: with God is terrible majesty. 

Job 37:23  Touching the Almighty, we cannot find him out: he is excellent in power, and in judgment, and in plenty of justice: he will not afflict.

Job 38:1  Then the LORD answered Job out of the whirlwind, and said, 

Job 38:2  Who is this that darkeneth counsel by words without knowledge? 

Job 38:3  Gird up now thy loins like a man; for I will demand of thee, and answer thou me. 

Job 38:4  Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? declare, if thou hast understanding. 

Job 38:5  Who hath laid the measures thereof, if thou knowest? or who hath stretched the line upon it? 

Job 38:6  Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened? or who laid the corner stone thereof; 

Job 38:7  When the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy? 

Job 38:8  Or who shut up the sea with doors, when it brake forth, as if it had issued out of the womb? 

Job 38:9  When I made the cloud the garment thereof, and thick darkness a swaddlingband for it, 

Job 38:10  And brake up for it my decreed place, and set bars and doors, 

Job 38:11  And said, Hitherto shalt thou come, but no further: and here shall thy proud waves be stayed? 

Job 38:12  Hast thou commanded the morning since thy days; and caused the dayspring to know his place; 

Job 38:13  That it might take hold of the ends of the earth, that the wicked might be shaken out of it? 

Job 38:14  It is turned as clay to the seal; and they stand as a garment.

Job 38:17  Have the gates of death been opened unto thee? or hast thou seen the doors of the shadow of death? 

Job 38:18  Hast thou perceived the breadth of the earth? declare if thou knowest it all. 

Job 38:19  Where is the way where light dwelleth? and as for darkness, where is the place thereof, 

Job 38:20  That thou shouldest take it to the bound thereof, and that thou shouldest know the paths to the house thereof? 

Job 38:21  Knowest thou it, because thou wast then born? or because the number of thy days is great? 

Job 38:22  Hast thou entered into the treasures of the snow? or hast thou seen the treasures of the hail, 

Job 38:23  Which I have reserved against the time of trouble, against the day of battle and war? 

Job 38:24  By what way is the light parted, which scattereth the east wind upon the earth? 

Job 38:25  Who hath divided a watercourse for the overflowing of waters, or a way for the lightning of thunder; 

Job 38:26  To cause it to rain on the earth, where no man is; on the wilderness, wherein there is no man; 

Job 38:27  To satisfy the desolate and waste ground; and to cause the bud of the tender herb to spring forth? 

Job 38:28  Hath the rain a father? or who hath begotten the drops of dew? 

Job 38:29  Out of whose womb came the ice? and the hoary frost of heaven, who hath gendered it? 

Job 38:30  The waters are hid as with a stone, and the face of the deep is frozen. 

Job 38:31  Canst thou bind the sweet influences of Pleiades, or loose the bands of Orion? 

Job 38:32  Canst thou bring forth Mazzaroth in his season? or canst thou guide Arcturus with his sons?

Job 38:34  Canst thou lift up thy voice to the clouds, that abundance of waters may cover thee? 

Job 38:35  Canst thou send lightnings, that they may go, and say unto thee, Here we are? 

Job 38:36  Who hath put wisdom in the inward parts? or who hath given understanding to the heart? 

Job 38:37  Who can number the clouds in wisdom? or who can stay the bottles of heaven, 

Job 38:38  When the dust groweth into hardness, and the clods cleave fast together? 

Job 38:39  Wilt thou hunt the prey for the lion? or fill the appetite of the young lions, 

Job 38:40  When they couch in their dens, and abide in the covert to lie in wait? 

Job 38:41  Who provideth for the raven his food? when his young ones cry unto God, they wander for lack of meat. 

 

Job 39:1  Knowest thou the time when the wild goats of the rock bring forth? or canst thou mark when the hinds do calve? 

Job 39:2  Canst thou number the months that they fulfil? or knowest thou the time when they bring forth? 

Job 39:3  They bow themselves, they bring forth their young ones, they cast out their sorrows. 

Job 39:4  Their young ones are in good liking, they grow up with corn; they go forth, and return not unto them. 

Job 39:5  Who hath sent out the wild ass free? or who hath loosed the bands of the wild ass? 

Job 39:6  Whose house I have made the wilderness, and the barren land his dwellings.

Job 39:9  Will the unicorn be willing to serve thee, or abide by thy crib? 

Job 39:10  Canst thou bind the unicorn with his band in the furrow? or will he harrow the valleys after thee? 

Job 39:11  Wilt thou trust him, because his strength is great? or wilt thou leave thy labour to him? 

Job 39:12  Wilt thou believe him, that he will bring home thy seed, and gather it into thy barn? 

Job 39:13  Gavest thou the goodly wings unto the peacocks? or wings and feathers unto the ostrich? 

Job 39:14  Which leaveth her eggs in the earth, and warmeth them in dust, 

Job 39:15  And forgetteth that the foot may crush them, or that the wild beast may break them. 

Job 39:16  She is hardened against her young ones, as though they were not hers: her labour is in vain without fear; 

Job 39:17  Because God hath deprived her of wisdom, neither hath he imparted to her understanding. 

Job 39:18  What time she lifteth up herself on high, she scorneth the horse and his rider. 

Job 39:19  Hast thou given the horse strength? hast thou clothed his neck with thunder? 

Job 39:20  Canst thou make him afraid as a grasshopper? the glory of his nostrils is terrible. 

Job 39:21  He paweth in the valley, and rejoiceth in his strength: he goeth on to meet the armed men. 

Job 39:22  He mocketh at fear, and is not affrighted; neither turneth he back from the sword. 

Job 39:23  The quiver rattleth against him, the glittering spear and the shield. 

Job 39:24  He swalloweth the ground with fierceness and rage: neither believeth he that it is the sound of the trumpet. 

Job 39:25  He saith among the trumpets, Ha, ha; and he smelleth the battle afar off, the thunder of the captains, and the shouting. 

Job 39:26  Doth the hawk fly by thy wisdom, and stretch her wings toward the south? 

Job 39:27  Doth the eagle mount up at thy command, and make her nest on high? 

Job 39:28  She dwelleth and abideth on the rock, upon the crag of the rock, and the strong place. 

Job 39:29  From thence she seeketh the prey, and her eyes behold afar off. 

Job 39:30  Her young ones also suck up blood: and where the slain are, there is she. 

 

2Co 4:13  We having the same spirit of faith, according as it is written, I believed, and therefore have I spoken; we also believe, and therefore speak; 

2Co 4:14  Knowing that he which raised up the Lord Jesus shall raise up us also by Jesus, and shall present us with you. 

2Co 4:15  For all things are for your sakes, that the abundant grace might through the thanksgiving of many redound to the glory of God. 

2Co 4:16  For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day. 

2Co 4:17  For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory; 

2Co 4:18  While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal. 

 

2Co 5:1  For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. 

2Co 5:2  For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven: 

2Co 5:3  If so be that being clothed we shall not be found naked. 

2Co 5:4  For we that are in this tabernacle do groan, being burdened: not for that we would be unclothed, but clothed upon, that mortality might be swallowed up of life. 

2Co 5:5  Now he that hath wrought us for the selfsame thing is God, who also hath given unto us the earnest of the Spirit. 

2Co 5:6  Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord: 

2Co 5:7  (For we walk by faith, not by sight:) 

2Co 5:8  We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord. 

2Co 5:9  Wherefore we labour, that, whether present or absent, we may be accepted of him. 

2Co 5:10  For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad. 

 

Psa 44:9  But thou hast cast off, and put us to shame; and goest not forth with our armies. 

Psa 44:10  Thou makest us to turn back from the enemy: and they which hate us spoil for themselves. 

Psa 44:11  Thou hast given us like sheep appointed for meat; and hast scattered us among the heathen. 

Psa 44:12  Thou sellest thy people for nought, and dost not increase thy wealth by their price. 

Psa 44:13  Thou makest us a reproach to our neighbours, a scorn and a derision to them that are round about us. 

Psa 44:14  Thou makest us a byword among the heathen, a shaking of the head among the people. 

Psa 44:15  My confusion is continually before me, and the shame of my face hath covered me, 

Psa 44:16  For the voice of him that reproacheth and blasphemeth; by reason of the enemy and avenger. 

Psa 44:17  All this is come upon us; yet have we not forgotten thee, neither have we dealt falsely in thy covenant. 

Psa 44:18  Our heart is not turned back, neither have our steps declined from thy way; 

Psa 44:19  Though thou hast sore broken us in the place of dragons, and covered us with the shadow of death. 

Psa 44:20  If we have forgotten the name of our God, or stretched out our hands to a strange god; 

Psa 44:21  Shall not God search this out? for he knoweth the secrets of the heart. 

Psa 44:22  Yea, for thy sake are we killed all the day long; we are counted as sheep for the slaughter. 

Psa 44:23  Awake, why sleepest thou, O Lord? arise, cast us not off for ever. 

Psa 44:24  Wherefore hidest thou thy face, and forgettest our affliction and our oppression? 

Psa 44:25  For our soul is bowed down to the dust: our belly cleaveth unto the earth. 

Psa 44:26  Arise for our help, and redeem us for thy mercies' sake. 

 

Pro 22:13  The slothful man saith, There is a lion without, I shall be slain in the streets.

Job 34:1-36:33
2 Corinthians 4:1-12
Psalm 44:1-8
Proverbs 22:10-12

 

Job 34:1  Furthermore Elihu answered and said, 

Job 34:2  Hear my words, O ye wise men; and give ear unto me, ye that have knowledge. 

Job 34:3  For the ear trieth words, as the mouth tasteth meat. 

Job 34:4  Let us choose to us judgment: let us know among ourselves what is good. 

Job 34:5  For Job hath said, I am righteous: and God hath taken away my judgment. 

Job 34:6  Should I lie against my right? my wound is incurable without transgression. 

Job 34:7  What man is like Job, who drinketh up scorning like water? 

Job 34:8  Which goeth in company with the workers of iniquity, and walketh with wicked men. 

Job 34:9  For he hath said, It profiteth a man nothing that he should delight himself with God. 

Job 34:10  Therefore hearken unto me, ye men of understanding: far be it from God, that he should do wickedness; and from the Almighty, that he should commit iniquity. 

Job 34:11  For the work of a man shall he render unto him, and cause every man to find according to his ways. 

Job 34:12  Yea, surely God will not do wickedly, neither will the Almighty pervert judgment. 

Job 34:13  Who hath given him a charge over the earth? or who hath disposed the whole world? 

Job 34:14  If he set his heart upon man, if he gather unto himself his spirit and his breath; 

Job 34:15  All flesh shall perish together, and man shall turn again unto dust. 

Job 34:16  If now thou hast understanding, hear this: hearken to the voice of my words. 

Job 34:17  Shall even he that hateth right govern? and wilt thou condemn him that is most just? 

Job 34:18  Is it fit to say to a king, Thou art wicked? and to princes, Ye are ungodly? 

Job 34:19  How much less to him that accepteth not the persons of princes, nor regardeth the rich more than the poor? for they all are the work of his hands. 

Job 34:20  In a moment shall they die, and the people shall be troubled at midnight, and pass away: and the mighty shall be taken away without hand. 

Job 34:21  For his eyes are upon the ways of man, and he seeth all his goings. 

Job 34:22  There is no darkness, nor shadow of death, where the workers of iniquity may hide themselves. 

Job 34:23  For he will not lay upon man more than right; that he should enter into judgment with God. 

Job 34:24  He shall break in pieces mighty men without number, and set others in their stead. 

Job 34:25  Therefore he knoweth their works, and he overturneth them in the night, so that they are destroyed. 

Job 34:26  He striketh them as wicked men in the open sight of others; 

Job 34:27  Because they turned back from him, and would not consider any of his ways: 

Job 34:28  So that they cause the cry of the poor to come unto him, and he heareth the cry of the afflicted. 

Job 34:29  When he giveth quietness, who then can make trouble? and when he hideth his face, who then can behold him? whether it be done against a nation, or against a man only: 

Job 34:30  That the hypocrite reign not, lest the people be ensnared. 

Job 34:31  Surely it is meet to be said unto God, I have borne chastisement, I will not offend any more: 

Job 34:32  That which I see not teach thou me: if I have done iniquity, I will do no more. 

Job 34:33  Should it be according to thy mind? he will recompense it, whether thou refuse, or whether thou choose; and not I: therefore speak what thou knowest. 

Job 34:34  Let men of understanding tell me, and let a wise man hearken unto me. 

Job 34:35  Job hath spoken without knowledge, and his words were without wisdom. 

Job 34:36  My desire is that Job may be tried unto the end because of his answers for wicked men. 

Job 34:37  For he addeth rebellion unto his sin, he clappeth his hands among us, and multiplieth his words against God. 

 

Job 35:1  Elihu spake moreover, and said, 

Job 35:2  Thinkest thou this to be right, that thou saidst, My righteousness is more than God's? 

Job 35:3  For thou saidst, What advantage will it be unto thee? and, What profit shall I have, if I be cleansed from my sin? 

Job 35:4  I will answer thee, and thy companions with thee. 

Job 35:5  Look unto the heavens, and see; and behold the clouds which are higher than thou. 

Job 35:6  If thou sinnest, what doest thou against him? or if thy transgressions be multiplied, what doest thou unto him? 

Job 35:7  If thou be righteous, what givest thou him? or what receiveth he of thine hand? 

Job 35:8  Thy wickedness may hurt a man as thou art; and thy righteousness may profit the son of man. 

Job 35:9  By reason of the multitude of oppressions they make the oppressed to cry: they cry out by reason of the arm of the mighty. 

Job 35:10  But none saith, Where is God my maker, who giveth songs in the night; 

Job 35:11  Who teacheth us more than the beasts of the earth, and maketh us wiser than the fowls of heaven? 

Job 35:12  There they cry, but none giveth answer, because of the pride of evil men. 

Job 35:13  Surely God will not hear vanity, neither will the Almighty regard it. 

Job 35:14  Although thou sayest thou shalt not see him, yet judgment is before him; therefore trust thou in him. 

Job 35:15  But now, because it is not so, he hath visited in his anger; yet he knoweth it not in great extremity: 

Job 35:16  Therefore doth Job open his mouth in vain; he multiplieth words without knowledge. 

 

Job 36:1  Elihu also proceeded, and said, 

Job 36:2  Suffer me a little, and I will shew thee that I have yet to speak on God's behalf. 

Job 36:3  I will fetch my knowledge from afar, and will ascribe righteousness to my Maker. 

Job 36:4  For truly my words shall not be false: he that is perfect in knowledge is with thee. 

Job 36:5  Behold, God is mighty, and despiseth not any: he is mighty in strength and wisdom. 

Job 36:6  He preserveth not the life of the wicked: but giveth right to the poor. 

Job 36:7  He withdraweth not his eyes from the righteous: but with kings are they on the throne; yea, he doth establish them for ever, and they are exalted. 

Job 36:8  And if they be bound in fetters, and be holden in cords of affliction; 

Job 36:9  Then he sheweth them their work, and their transgressions that they have exceeded. 

Job 36:10  He openeth also their ear to discipline, and commandeth that they return from iniquity. 

Job 36:11  If they obey and serve him, they shall spend their days in prosperity, and their years in pleasures. 

Job 36:12  But if they obey not, they shall perish by the sword, and they shall die without knowledge. 

Job 36:13  But the hypocrites in heart heap up wrath: they cry not when he bindeth them. 

Job 36:14  They die in youth, and their life is among the unclean. 

Job 36:15  He delivereth the poor in his affliction, and openeth their ears in oppression. 

Job 36:16  Even so would he have removed thee out of the strait into a broad place, where there is no straitness; and that which should be set on thy table should be full of fatness. 

Job 36:17  But thou hast fulfilled the judgment of the wicked: judgment and justice take hold on thee. 

Job 36:18  Because there is wrath, beware lest he take thee away with his stroke: then a great ransom cannot deliver thee. 

Job 36:19  Will he esteem thy riches? no, not gold, nor all the forces of strength. 

Job 36:20  Desire not the night, when people are cut off in their place. 

Job 36:21  Take heed, regard not iniquity: for this hast thou chosen rather than affliction. 

Job 36:22  Behold, God exalteth by his power: who teacheth like him? 

Job 36:23  Who hath enjoined him his way? or who can say, Thou hast wrought iniquity? 

Job 36:24  Remember that thou magnify his work, which men behold. 

Job 36:25  Every man may see it; man may behold it afar off. 

Job 36:26  Behold, God is great, and we know him not, neither can the number of his years be searched out. 

Job 36:27  For he maketh small the drops of water: they pour down rain according to the vapour thereof: 

Job 36:28  Which the clouds do drop and distil upon man abundantly. 

Job 36:29  Also can any understand the spreadings of the clouds, or the noise of his tabernacle? 

Job 36:30  Behold, he spreadeth his light upon it, and covereth the bottom of the sea. 

Job 36:31  For by them judgeth he the people; he giveth meat in abundance. 

Job 36:32  With clouds he covereth the light; and commandeth it not to shine by the cloud that cometh betwixt. 

Job 36:33  The noise thereof sheweth concerning it, the cattle also concerning the vapour. 

 

2Co 4:1  Therefore seeing we have this ministry, as we have received mercy, we faint not; 

2Co 4:2  But have renounced the hidden things of dishonesty, not walking in craftiness, nor handling the word of God deceitfully; but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God. 

2Co 4:3  But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: 

2Co 4:4  In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them. 

2Co 4:5  For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus' sake. 

2Co 4:6  For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. 

2Co 4:7  But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us. 

2Co 4:8  We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; 

2Co 4:9  Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed; 

2Co 4:10  Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body. 

2Co 4:11  For we which live are alway delivered unto death for Jesus' sake, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh. 

2Co 4:12  So then death worketh in us, but life in you. 

 

Psa 44:1  To the chief Musician for the sons of Korah, Maschil. We have heard with our ears, O God, our fathers have told us, what work thou didst in their days, in the times of old. 

Psa 44:2  How thou didst drive out the heathen with thy hand, and plantedst them; how thou didst afflict the people, and cast them out. 

Psa 44:3  For they got not the land in possession by their own sword, neither did their own arm save them: but thy right hand, and thine arm, and the light of thy countenance, because thou hadst a favour unto them. 

Psa 44:4  Thou art my King, O God: command deliverances for Jacob. 

Psa 44:5  Through thee will we push down our enemies: through thy name will we tread them under that rise up against us. 

Psa 44:6  For I will not trust in my bow, neither shall my sword save me. 

Psa 44:7  But thou hast saved us from our enemies, and hast put them to shame that hated us. 

Psa 44:8  In God we boast all the day long, and praise thy name for ever. Selah. 

 

Pro 22:10  Cast out the scorner, and contention shall go out; yea, strife and reproach shall cease. 

Pro 22:11  He that loveth pureness of heart, for the grace of his lips the king shall be his friend. 

Pro 22:12  The eyes of the LORD preserve knowledge, and he overthroweth the words of the transgressor.
