JobChapter 27 |

1 MOREOVER Job continued his parable, and said, |
|
2 As God lives, who has wronged my judgment, and the Almighty, who has made my soul bitter; |
|
3 As long as my soul 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 do evil, till I die I will not remove my innocence 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 my enemy be as the ungodly, and he that hates me as the wicked. |
|
8 For though he has accumulated riches, what is the hope of the godless at the time when God takes away his life? |
|
9 For God will not hear his prayer when trouble comes upon him. |
|
10 But if he should trust in the Almighty, and always call upon God, God will hear him and answer him. |
|
11 But as for you, I will deliver you into the hand of God; so that your works may not be hid from him. |
|
12 Behold, all of you have seen it; why then do you boast in vain? |
|
13 This is the portion of a wicked man with God, and the heritage of oppressors, which they shall receive from the Almighty. |
|
14 If their children are multiplied, it is for the sword; and their offspring shall not be satisfied with bread. |
|
15 Those who remain of them shall be buried in death; and their widows shall not weep over them. |
|
16 Though they heap up silver like dust and accumulate clothes like clay, |
|
17 They may pile them up, yet the righteous shall wear them, and shall also divide their silver. |
|
18 For the wicked has built his house upon a spider's web, and like a booth he had made his shelter. |
|
19 The rich man shall lie down, but he shall not rise again; he opens his eyes, and he is gone. |
|
20 Terrors overtake him like swift water, and like a tempest that rages. |
|
21 The east wind shall carry him away in the night, and he is gone; and shall hurl him out of his place. |
|
22 For God shall cast him out without pity, and he cannot escape out of his hand. |
|
23 He shall smite him with his hand, and shall hiss against him from his dwelling place. |
