1 Moreover Job347 continued3254 his parable,4912 and said,559

2 As God410 lives,2416 who has taken5493 away5493 my judgment;4941 and the Almighty,7706 who has vexed4843 my soul;5315

3 All3605 the while5750 my breath5397 is in me, and the spirit7307 of God433 is in my nostrils;639

4 My lips8193 shall not speak1696 wickedness,5766 nor518 my tongue3956 utter1897 deceit.7423

5 God forbid2486 that I should justify6663 you: till5704 I die1478 I will not remove5493 my integrity8538 from me.

6 My righteousness6666 I hold2388 fast, and will not let it go:7503 my heart3824 shall not reproach2778 me so3605 long3117 as I live.3117

7 Let my enemy341 be as the wicked,7563 and he that rises6965 up against me as the unrighteous.5767

8 For what4100 is the hope8615 of the hypocrite,2611 though3588 he has gained,1214 when3588 God433 takes7953 away7953 his soul?5315

9 Will God410 hear8085 his cry6818 when3588 trouble6869 comes935 on him?

10 Will he delight6026 himself in the Almighty?7706 will he always6256 call7121 on God?433

11 I will teach3384 you by the hand3027 of God:410 that which834 is with the Almighty7706 will I not conceal.3582

12 Behold,2005 all3605 you yourselves have seen2372 it; why4100 then are you thus2088 altogether vain?1891

13 This2088 is the portion2506 of a wicked7563 man120 with God,410 and the heritage5159 of oppressors,6184 which they shall receive3947 of the Almighty.7706

14 If518 his children1121 be multiplied,7235 it is for the sword:2719 and his offspring6631 shall not be satisfied7646 with bread.3899

15 Those that remain8300 of him shall be buried6912 in death:4194 and his widows490 shall not weep.1058

16 Though518 he heap6651 up silver3701 as the dust,6083 and prepare3559 raiment4403 as the clay;2563

17 He may prepare3559 it, but the just6662 shall put3847 it on, and the innocent5355 shall divide2505 the silver.3701

18 He builds1129 his house1004 as a moth,6211 and as a booth5521 that the keeper5341 makes.6213

19 The rich6223 man shall lie7901 down,7901 but he shall not be gathered:622 he opens6491 his eyes,5869 and he is not.

20 Terrors1091 take5381 hold5381 on him as waters,4325 a tempest5492 steals1589 him away in the night.3915

21 The east6921 wind carries5375 him away, and he departs:3212 and as a storm hurles8175 him out of his place.4725

22 For God410 shall cast7993 on him, and not spare:2550 he would fain1272 flee1272 out of his hand.3027

23 Men shall clap5606 their hands3709 at5921 him, and shall hiss8319 him out of his place.4725
