- 1. And Job again took up his parable, and said,
- 2. As God liveth, who hath taken away my right, And the Almighty, who hath vexed my soul:
- 3. (For my life is yet whole in me, And the spirit of God is in my nostrils);
- 4. Surely my lips shall not speak unrighteousness, Neither shall my tongue utter deceit.
- 5. Far be it from me that I should justify you: Till I die I will not put away 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 let him that riseth up against me be as the unrighteous.
- 8. For what is the hope of the godless, though he get him gain, 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, And call upon God at all times?
- 11. I will teach you concerning 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 become altogether vain?
- 13. This is the portion of a wicked man with God, And the heritage of oppressors, which they receive from 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 make no lamentation.
- 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 the moth, And as a booth which the keeper maketh.
- 19. He lieth down rich, but he shall not be gathered [to his fathers]; He openeth his eyes, and he is not.
- 20. Terrors overtake him like waters; A tempest stealeth him away in the night.
- 21. The east wind carrieth him away, and he departeth; And it sweepeth him out of his place.
- 22. For [God] shall hurl at 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.
