From Textus Receptus

Revision as of 08:43, 30 July 2012

• 1 Then Job answered and said:

• 2 “Truly I know it is so, but how can man be just with God?

• 3 If one desired to argue with Him, he cannot answer Him one time out of a thousand.

• 1 He is wise in heart, and mighty in strength. Who has hardened himself against Him, and prospered?

• 1 He removes the mountains, and they do not know it, He overturns them in His anger;

• 1 He shakes the earth out of its place, and its pillars tremble.

• 1 He commands the sun, and it does not rise; and seals up the stars;

• 1 He alone spreads out the heavens, and treads on the waves of the sea;

• 1 He makes Arcturus, Orion, and Pleiades, and the chambers of the south;

• 10 He does great things past finding out, yes, wonders without number.

• 1 Behold, He goes by me, and I did not see Him; He also passes on, but I do not perceive Him.

• 12 Behold, He takes away, who can hinder Him? Who will say to Him, ‘What are You doing?’

• 1 If God will not withdraw His anger, those who maintain pride will stoop beneath Him.

• 1 “How much less can I answer Him, and choose my words to reason with Him?

• 1 If I was righteous, yet would I not answer Him, but I would plead mercy of my Judge.

• 1 If I called and He answered me, I would not believe that He had listened to my voice.

• 1 Because He crushes me with a tempest, and multiplies my wounds without a reason.

• 1 He will not allow me to take my breath, but will fill me with bitterness.

• 1 If I speak of strength, behold, He is strong: and if of judgment, who will appoint me a time to defend myself?

• 1 If I justify myself, my own mouth will condemn me; if I say, I am perfect, it will also prove me perverse.

• 1 “If I was perfect, yet I would not know myself; I would despise my life.

• 1 This is the only thing, for this reason I spoke, He destroys the perfect and the wicked.

• 1 If the oppression kills suddenly, He will laugh at the testing of the innocent.

• 1 The earth is given into the hand of the wicked. He covers the faces of its judges. If it is not He, then who is it?

• 1 “Now my days are faster than a runner; they flee away, they see no good.

• 1 They pass through like fast moving ships, like the eagle that swoops on its prey.

• 1 If I say, ‘I will forget my complaint, I will depart from my heaviness and make myself joyful,’

• 1 I am afraid of all my sorrows; I know that You will not hold me innocent.

• 1 If I be wicked, why then do I labour in vain?

• 1 If I wash myself with snow water, and make my hands spotlessly clean;

• 31 Yet You will plunge me into the pit, and my own clothes will hate me.

• 1 Because He is not a man, as I am, that I can answer Him, and we should come together in judgment.

• 1 Neither is there any mediator between us, who can lay his hand on us both.

• 1 Let him take His rod away from me, and let not His fear terrify me.

• 35 Then will I speak and not fear Him; but it is not so with me.
