And Job{H347} again took{H3254} up his parable,{H4912} and said,{H559}

As God{H410} liveth,{H2416} who hath taken away{H5493} my right,{H4941} And the Almighty,{H7706} who hath vexed{H4843} my soul:{H5315}

(For my life{H5397} is yet whole{H5750} in me, And the spirit{H7307} of God{H433} is in my nostrils);{H639}

Surely my lips{H8193} shall not speak{H1696} unrighteousness,{H5766} Neither shall my tongue{H3956} utter{H1897} deceit.{H7423}

Far be it{H2486} from me that I should justify{H6663} you: Till I die{H1478} I will not put away{H5493} mine integrity{H8538} from me.

My righteousness{H6666} I hold{H2388} fast, and will not let it go:{H7503} My heart{H3824} shall not reproach{H2778} [me] so long as I live.{H3117}

Let mine enemy{H341} be as the wicked,{H7563} And let him that riseth up{H6965} against me be as the unrighteous.{H5767}

For what is the hope{H8615} of the godless,{H2611} though he get him gain,{H1214} When God{H433} taketh away{H7953} his soul?{H5315}

Will God{H410} hear{H8085} his cry,{H6818} When trouble{H6869} cometh{H935} upon him?

Will he delight{H6026} himself in the Almighty,{H7706} And call{H7121} upon God{H433} at all times?{H6256}

I will teach{H3384} you concerning the hand{H3027} of God;{H410} That which is with the Almighty{H7706} will I not conceal.{H3582}

Behold, all ye yourselves have seen{H2372} it; Why then are ye become altogether{H1892} vain?{H1891}

This is the portion{H2506} of a wicked{H7563} man{H120} with God,{H410} And the heritage{H5159} of oppressors,{H6184} which they receive{H3947} from the Almighty:{H7706}

If his children{H1121} be multiplied,{H7235} it is for{H3926} the sword;{H2719} And his offspring{H6631} shall not be satisfied{H7646} with bread.{H3899}

Those that remain{H8300} of him shall be buried{H6912} in death,{H4194} And his widows{H490} shall make no lamentation.{H1058}

Though he heap up{H6651} silver{H3701} as the dust,{H6083} And prepare{H3559} raiment{H4403} as the clay;{H2563}

He may prepare{H3559} it, but the just{H6662} shall put it on,{H3847} And the innocent{H5355} shall divide{H2505} the silver.{H3701}

He buildeth{H1129} his house{H1004} as the moth,{H6211} And as a booth{H5521} which the keeper{H5341} maketh.{H6213}

He lieth down{H7901} rich,{H6223} but he shall not be gathered{H622} [to his fathers]; He openeth{H6491} his eyes,{H5869} and he is not.

Terrors{H1091} overtake{H5381} him like waters;{H4325} A tempest{H5492} stealeth him away{H1589} in the night.{H3915}

The east{H6921} wind carrieth him away,{H5375} and he departeth;{H3212} And it sweepeth{H8175} him out of his place.{H4725}

For [God] shall hurl{H7993} at him, and not spare:{H2550} He would fain{H1272} flee{H1272} out of his hand.{H3027}

Men shall clap{H5606} their hands{H3709} at him, And shall hiss{H8319} him out of his place.{H4725}
