- And Job again took up his discourse, and said:
- 2
- “As God lives, who has taken away my right, and the Almighty, who has made my soul bitter,
- 3
- as long as my breath is in me, and the spirit of God is in my nostrils,
- 4
- my lips will not speak falsehood, and my tongue will not utter deceit.
- 5
- Far be it from me to say that you are right; till I die I will not put away my integrity from me.
- 6
- I hold fast my righteousness and will not let it go; my heart does not reproach me for any of my days.
- 7
- “Let my enemy be as the wicked, and let him who rises up against me be as the unrighteous.
- 8
- For what is the hope of the godless when God cuts him off, when God takes away his life?
- 9
- Will God hear his cry when distress comes upon him?
- 10
- Will he take delight in the Almighty? Will he call upon God at all times?
- 11
- I will teach you concerning the hand of God; what is with the Almighty I will not conceal.
- 12
- Behold, all of you have seen it yourselves; why then have you become altogether vain?
- 13
- “This is the portion of a wicked man with God, and the heritage that oppressors receive from the Almighty:
- 14
- If his children are multiplied, it is for the sword, and his descendants have not enough bread.
- 15
- Those who survive him the pestilence buries, and his widows do not weep.
- 16
- Though he heap up silver like dust, and pile up clothing like clay,
- 17
- he may pile it up, but the righteous will wear it, and the innocent will divide the silver.
- 18
- He builds his house like a moth’s, like a booth that a watchman makes.
- 19
- He goes to bed rich, but will do so no more; he opens his eyes, and his wealth is gone.
- 20
- Terrors overtake him like a flood; in the night a whirlwind carries him off.
- 21
- The east wind lifts him up and he is gone; it sweeps him out of his place.
- 22
- It hurls at him without pity; he flees from its power in headlong flight.
- 23
- It claps its hands at him and hisses at him from its place.
