Job 27

27And Job continued his discourse:H347H3254H5375H4912H5592"As surely as God lives, who has denied me justice, the Almighty, who has made me taste bitterness of soul,H410H2416H5493H4941H7706H4843H53153as long as I have life within me, the breath of God in my nostrils,H5750H5397H7307H433H6394my lips will not speak wickedness, and my tongue will utter no deceit.H8193H1696H5766H3956H1897H74235I will never admit you are in the right; till I die, I will not deny my integrity.H2486H6663H1478H5493H85386I will maintain my righteousness and never let go of it; my conscience will not reproach me as long as I live.H6666H2388H7503H3824H2778H31177"May my enemies be like the wicked, my adversaries like the unjust!H341H7563H6965H57678For what hope has the godless when he is cut off, when God takes away his life?H8615H2611H1214H433H7953H53159Does God listen to his cry when distress comes upon him?H410H8085H6818H6869H93510Will he find delight in the Almighty? Will he call upon God at all times?H6026H7706H6256H7121H43311"I will teach you about the power of God; the ways of the Almighty I will not conceal.H3384H3027H410H7706H358212You have all seen this yourselves. Why then this meaningless talk?H2372H1892H189113"Here is the fate God allots to the wicked, the heritage a ruthless man receives from the Almighty:H2506H7563H120H410H5159H6184H3947H770614However many his children, their fate is the sword; his offspring will never have enough to eat.H1121H7235H3926H2719H6631H7646H389915The plague will bury those who survive him, and their widows will not weep for them.H8300H6912H4194H490H105816Though he heaps up silver like dust and clothes like piles of clay,H6651H3701H6083H3559H4403H256317what he lays up the righteous will wear, and the innocent will divide his silver.H3559H6662H3847H5355H2505H370118The house he builds is like a moth's cocoon, like a hut made by a watchman.H1129H1004H6211H5521H5341H621319He lies down wealthy, but will do so no more; when he opens his eyes, all is gone.H6223H7901H622H6491H586920Terrors overtake him like a flood; a tempest snatches him away in the night.H1091H5381H4325H5492H1589H391521The east wind carries him off, and he is gone; it sweeps him out of his place.H6921H5375H3212H8175H472522It hurls itself against him without mercy as he flees headlong from its power.H7993H2550H1272H1272H302723It claps its hands in derision and hisses him out of his place.H5606H3709H8319H4725
