  • Job 29:11-17 : 11 When the ear heard me, it blessed me; and when the eye saw me, it approved me; 12 Because I delivered the poor who cried out, the fatherless, and the one who had no helper. 13 The blessing of a dying man came upon me, and I caused the widow's heart to sing for joy. 14 I put on righteousness, and it clothed me; my justice was like a robe and a crown. 15 I was eyes to the blind, and feet to the lame. 16 I was a father to the poor, and I searched out the case I did not know. 17 And I broke the fangs of the wicked, and plucked the victim from his teeth.
  • Job 31:1-9 : 1 I made a covenant with my eyes; why then should I gaze upon a maiden? 2 For what portion of God is there from above? And what inheritance of the Almighty from on high? 3 Is not destruction for the wicked, and a strange punishment for the workers of iniquity? 4 Does He not see my ways, and count all my steps? 5 If I have walked with vanity, or if my foot has hurried to deceit; 6 Let me be weighed in an even balance, that God may know my integrity. 7 If my step has turned out of the way, and my heart walked after my eyes, and if any stain has cleaved to my hands; 8 Then let me sow, and let another eat; yes, let my offspring be rooted out. 9 If my heart has been deceived by a woman, or if I have lain in wait at my neighbor's door; 10 Then let my wife grind for another, and let others bow down upon her. 11 For this would be a heinous crime; yes, it is an iniquity to be judged. 12 For it is a fire that consumes to destruction, and would root out all my increase. 13 If I have despised the cause of my manservant or my maidservant, when they contended with me; 14 What then shall I do when God rises up? When He visits, what shall I answer Him? 15 Did not He that made me in the womb make him? And did not one fashion us in the womb? 16 If I have withheld the poor from their desire, or caused the eyes of the widow to fail; 17 Or have eaten my portion alone, and the fatherless has not eaten of it; 18 (For from my youth he was raised with me as with a father, and I have guided her from my mother's womb;) 19 If I have seen any perish for lack of clothing, or any poor without covering; 20 If his loins have not blessed me, and if he were not warmed with the fleece of my sheep; 21 If I have lifted my hand against the fatherless, when I saw my help in the gate; 22 Then let my arm fall from my shoulder blade, and let my arm be broken at the bone. 23 For destruction from God was a terror to me, and because of His majesty I could not endure. 24 If I have made gold my hope, or said to the fine gold, 'You are my confidence;' 25 If I rejoiced because my wealth was great, and because my hand had gotten much; 26 If I beheld the sun when it shined, or the moon walking in brightness; 27 And my heart was secretly enticed, or my mouth has kissed my hand: 28 This also would be an iniquity to be judged, for I would have denied the God above. 29 If I rejoiced at the destruction of him that hated me, or lifted myself up when evil found him; 30 Neither have I allowed my mouth to sin by wishing a curse upon his soul. 31 If the men of my tent have not said, 'Oh that we had of his flesh! we cannot be satisfied.' 32 The stranger did not lodge in the street, but I opened my doors to the traveler. 33 If I covered my transgressions like Adam, by hiding my iniquity in my heart; 34 Did I fear a great multitude, or did the contempt of families terrify me, so that I kept silent and went not out of the door? 35 Oh that one would hear me! Behold, my desire is that the Almighty would answer me, and that my adversary had written a book. 36 Surely I would take it upon my shoulder, and bind it as a crown to me. 37 I would declare to Him the number of my steps; like a prince would I approach Him. 38 If my land cries against me, or its furrows likewise complain; 39 If I have eaten its fruits without payment, or caused the owners to lose their life; 40 Let thistles grow instead of wheat, and weeds instead of barley. The words of Job are ended.
