Job 27:8
chevron_left

1
Moreover Job continued
his parable, and said,
2
As
God liveth,
who
hath taken away my judgment; and the Almighty,
who
hath vexed my soul;
3
All the while my breath
is
in me, and the spirit of God
is
in my nostrils;
4
My lips shall not speak wickedness, nor my tongue utter deceit.
5
God forbid that I should justify you: till I die I will not remove mine integrity from me.
6
My righteousness I hold fast, and will not let it go: my heart shall not reproach
me
so long as I live.
7
Let mine enemy be as the wicked, and he that riseth up against me as the unrighteous.
For what
is
the hope of the hypocrite, though he hath gained, when God taketh away his soul?
9
Will God hear his cry when trouble cometh upon him?
10
Will he delight himself in the Almighty? will he always call upon God?
11
I will teach you by the hand of God:
that
which
is
with the Almighty will I not conceal.
12
Behold, all ye yourselves have seen
it;
why then are ye thus altogether vain?
13
This
is
the portion of a wicked man with God, and the heritage of oppressors,
which
they shall receive of the Almighty.
14
If his children be multiplied,
it is
for the sword: and his offspring shall not be satisfied with bread.
15
Those that remain of him shall be buried in death: and his widows shall not weep.
16
Though he heap up silver as the dust, and prepare raiment as the clay;
17
He may prepare
it
, but the just shall put
it
on, and the innocent shall divide the silver.
18
He buildeth his house as a moth, and as a booth
that
the keeper maketh.
19
The rich man shall lie down, but he shall not be gathered: he openeth his eyes, and he
is
not.
20
Terrors take hold on him as waters, a tempest stealeth him away in the night.
21
The east wind carrieth him away, and he departeth: and as a storm hurleth him out of his place.
22
For
God
shall cast upon him, and not spare: he would fain flee out of his hand.
23
Men
shall clap their hands at him, and shall hiss him out of his place.
