JOB-27:16 Though he heap up silver as the dust, and prepare raiment as the clay; JOB-27:17 He may prepare [it] , but the just shall put [it] on, and the innocent shall divide the silver. JOB-27:18 He buildeth his house as a moth, and as a booth [that] the keeper maketh. JOB-27:19 The rich man shall lie down, but he shall not be gathered:he openeth his eyes, and he [is] not. JOB-27:20 Terrors take hold on him as waters, a tempest stealeth him away in the night. JOB-27:21 The east wind carrieth him away, and he departeth:and as a storm hurleth him out of his place. JOB-27:22 For [God] shall cast upon him, and not spare:he would fain flee out of his hand. JOB-27:23 [Men] shall clap their hands at him, and shall hiss him out of his place. JOB-28:1 Surely there is a vein for the silver, and a place for gold [where] they fine [it] . JOB-28:2 Iron is taken out of the earth, and brass [is] molten [out of] the stone. JOB-28:3 He setteth an end to darkness, and searcheth out all perfection:the stones of darkness, and the shadow of death. JOB-28:4 The flood breaketh out from the inhabitant; [even the waters] forgotten of the foot:they are dried up, they are gone away from men. JOB-28:5 [As for] the earth, out of it cometh bread:and under it is turned up as it were fire. JOB-28:6 The stones of it [are] the place of sapphires:and it hath dust of gold. JOB-28:7 [There is] a path which no fowl knoweth, and which the vulture's eye hath not seen: JOB-28:8 The lion's whelps have not trodden it, nor the fierce lion passed by it. JOB-28:9 He putteth forth his hand upon the rock; he overturneth the mountains by the roots. JOB-28:10 He cutteth out rivers among the rocks; and his eye seeth every precious thing. JOB-28:11 He bindeth the floods from overflowing; and [the thing that is] hid bringeth he forth to light. JOB-28:12 But where shall wisdom be found? and where [is] the place of understanding? JOB-28:13 Man knoweth not the price thereof; neither is it found in the land of the living. JOB-28:14 The depth saith, It [is] not in me:and the sea saith, [It is] not with me. JOB-28:15 It cannot be gotten for gold, neither shall silver be weighed [for] the price thereof. JOB-28:16 It cannot be valued with the gold of Ophir, with the precious onyx, or the sapphire. JOB-28:17 The gold and the crystal cannot equal it:and the exchange of it [shall not be for] jewels of fine gold. JOB-28:18 No mention shall be made of coral, or of pearls:for the price of wisdom [is] above rubies. JOB-28:19 The topaz of Ethiopia shall not equal it, neither shall it be valued with pure gold. JOB-28:20 Whence then cometh wisdom? and where [is] the place of understanding? JOB-28:21 Seeing it is hid from the eyes of all living, and kept close from the fowls of the air. JOB-28:22 Destruction and death say, We have heard the fame thereof with our ears. JOB-28:23 God understandeth the way thereof, and he knoweth the place thereof. JOB-28:24 For he looketh to the ends of the earth, [and] seeth under the whole heaven; JOB-28:25 To make the weight for the winds; and he weigheth the waters by measure. JOB-28:26 When he made a decree for the rain, and a way for the lightning of the thunder: JOB-28:27 Then did he see it, and declare it; he prepared it, yea, and searched it out. JOB-28:28 And unto man he said, Behold, the fear of the Lord, that [is] wisdom; and to depart from evil [is] understanding. JOB-29:1 Moreover Job continued his parable, and said, JOB-29:2 Oh that I were as [in] months past, as [in] the days [when] God preserved me; JOB-29:3 When his candle shined upon my head, [and when] by his light I walked [through] darkness; JOB-29:4 As I was in the days of my youth, when the secret of God [was] upon my tabernacle; JOB-29:5 When the Almighty [was] yet with me, [when] my children [were] about me; JOB-29:6 When I washed my steps with butter, and the rock poured me out rivers of oil; JOB-29:7 When I went out to the gate through the city, [when] I prepared my seat in the street! JOB-29:8 The young men saw me, and hid themselves:and the aged arose, [and] stood up. JOB-29:9 The princes refrained talking, and laid [their] hand on their mouth. JOB-29:10 The nobles held their peace, and their tongue cleaved to the roof of their mouth. JOB-29:11 When the ear heard [me] , then it blessed me; and when the eye saw [me] , it gave witness to me: JOB-29:12 Because I delivered the poor that cried, and the fatherless, and [him that had] none to help him. JOB-29:13 The blessing of him that was ready to perish came upon me:and I caused the widow's heart to sing for joy. JOB-29:14 I put on righteousness, and it clothed me:my judgment [was] as a robe and a diadem. JOB-29:15 I was eyes to the blind, and feet [was] I to the lame. JOB-29:16 I [was] a father to the poor:and the cause [which] I knew not I searched out. JOB-29:17 And I brake the jaws of the wicked, and plucked the spoil out of his teeth. JOB-29:18 Then I said, I shall die in my nest, and I shall multiply [my] days as the sand. JOB-29:19 My root [was] spread out by the waters, and the dew lay all night upon my branch. JOB-29:20 My glory [was] fresh in me, and my bow was renewed in my hand. JOB-29:21 Unto me [men] gave ear, and waited, and kept silence at my counsel. JOB-29:22 After my words they spake not again; and my speech dropped upon them. JOB-29:23 And they waited for me as for the rain; and they opened their mouth wide [as] for the latter rain. JOB-29:24 [If] I laughed on them, they believed [it] not; and the light of my countenance they cast not down. JOB-29:25 I chose out their way, and sat chief, and dwelt as a king in the army, as one [that] comforteth the mourners. JOB-30:1 But now [they that are] younger than I have me in derision, whose fathers I would have disdained to have set with the dogs of my flock. JOB-30:2 Yea, whereto [might] the strength of their hands [profit] me, in whom old age was perished? JOB-30:3 For want and famine [they were] solitary; fleeing into the wilderness in former time desolate and waste.
