it

With clouds he covereth the light; and commandeth it not to shine by the cloud that cometh betwixt.

The noise thereof sheweth concerning it, the cattle also concerning the vapour.

He directeth it under the whole heaven, and his lightning unto the ends of the earth.

After it a voice roareth: he thundereth with the voice of his excellency; and he will not stay them when his voice is heard.

And it is turned round about by his counsels: that they may do whatsoever he commandeth them upon the face of the world in the earth.

He causeth it to come, whether for correction, or for his land, or for mercy.

Shall it be told him that I speak? if a man speak, surely he shall be swallowed up.

Who hath laid the measures thereof, if thou knowest? or who hath stretched the line upon it?

Or who shut up the sea with doors, when it brake forth, as if it had issued out of the womb?

Or who shut up the sea with doors, when it brake forth, as if it had issued out of the womb?

When I made the cloud the garment thereof, and thick darkness a swaddlingband for it,

And brake up for it my decreed place, and set bars and doors,

That it might take hold of the ends of the earth, that the wicked might be shaken out of it?

That it might take hold of the ends of the earth, that the wicked might be shaken out of it?

It is turned as clay to the seal; and they stand as a garment.

Hast thou perceived the breadth of the earth? declare if thou knowest it all.

That thou shouldest take it to the bound thereof, and that thou shouldest know the paths to the house thereof?

Knowest thou it, because thou wast then born? or because the number of thy days is great?

To cause it to rain on the earth, where no man is; on the wilderness, wherein there is no man;

Out of whose womb came the ice? and the hoary frost of heaven, who hath gendered it?

Wilt thou believe him, that he will bring home thy seed, and gather it into thy barn?

He swalloweth the ground with fierceness and rage: neither believeth he that it is the sound of the trumpet.

Shall he that contendeth with the Almighty instruct him? he that reproveth God, let him answer it.

He taketh it with his eyes: his nose pierceth through snares.

And it was so, that after the LORD had spoken these words unto Job, the LORD said to Eliphaz the Temanite, My wrath is kindled against thee, and against thy two friends: for ye have not spoken of me the thing that is right, as my servant Job hath.

Mine eye is consumed because of grief; it waxeth old because of all mine enemies.

Lest he tear my soul like a lion, rending it in pieces, while there is none to deliver.

Let the enemy persecute my soul, and take it; yea, let him tread down my life upon the earth, and lay mine honour in the dust. Selah.

If he turn not, he will whet his sword; he hath bent his bow, and made it ready.

He made a pit, and digged it, and is fallen into the ditch which he made.

He hath said in his heart, God hath forgotten: he hideth his face; he will never see it.

Wherefore doth the wicked contemn God? he hath said in his heart, Thou wilt not require it.

Thou hast seen it; for thou beholdest mischief and spite, to requite it with thy hand: the poor committeth himself unto thee; thou art the helper of the fatherless.

Thou hast seen it; for thou beholdest mischief and spite, to requite it with thy hand: the poor committeth himself unto thee; thou art the helper of the fatherless.

Like as a lion that is greedy of his prey, and as it were a young lion lurking in secret places.

There went up a smoke out of his nostrils, and fire out of his mouth devoured: coals were kindled by it.

It is God that girdeth me with strength, and maketh my way perfect.

It is God that avengeth me, and subdueth the people under me.

His going forth is from the end of the heaven, and his circuit unto the ends of it: and there is nothing hid from the heat thereof.

He asked life of thee, and thou gavest it him, even length of days for ever and ever.

I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint: my heart is like wax; it is melted in the midst of my bowels.

A seed shall serve him; it shall be accounted to the Lord for a generation.

For he hath founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the floods.

For he hath founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the floods.

For thy name’s sake, O LORD, pardon mine iniquity; for it is great.

What profit is there in my blood, when I go down to the pit? Shall the dust praise thee? shall it declare thy truth?

For he spake, and it was done; he commanded, and it stood fast.

For he spake, and it was done; he commanded, and it stood fast.

Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it.

And my soul shall be joyful in the LORD: it shall rejoice in his salvation.

But in mine adversity they rejoiced, and gathered themselves together: yea, the abjects gathered themselves together against me, and I knew it not; they did tear me, and ceased not:

Yea, they opened their mouth wide against me, and said, Aha, aha, our eye hath seen it.

Let them not say in their hearts, Ah, so would we have it: let them not say, We have swallowed him up.

Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.

For yet a little while, and the wicked shall not be: yea, thou shalt diligently consider his place, and it shall not be.

Wait on the LORD, and keep his way, and he shall exalt thee to inherit the land: when the wicked are cut off, thou shalt see it.

My heart panteth, my strength faileth me: as for the light of mine eyes, it also is gone from me.

LORD, make me to know mine end, and the measure of my days, what it is: that I may know how frail I am.

I was dumb, I opened not my mouth; because thou didst it.

And he hath put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God: many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the LORD.

Then said I, Lo, I come: in the volume of the book it is written of me,

Let them be ashamed and confounded together that seek after my soul to destroy it; let them be driven backward and put to shame that wish me evil.

And if he come to see me, he speaketh vanity: his heart gathereth iniquity to itself; when he goeth abroad, he telleth it.

They saw it, and so they marvelled; they were troubled, and hasted away.

As we have heard, so have we seen in the city of the LORD of hosts, in the city of our God: God will establish it for ever. Selah.

Mark ye well her bulwarks, consider her palaces; that ye may tell it to the generation following.

(For the redemption of their soul is precious, and it ceaseth for ever:)

Our God shall come, and shall not keep silence: a fire shall devour before him, and it shall be very tempestuous round about him.

For thou desirest not sacrifice; else would I give it: thou delightest not in burnt offering.

I will praise thee for ever, because thou hast done it: and I will wait on thy name; for it is good before thy saints.

I will praise thee for ever, because thou hast done it: and I will wait on thy name; for it is good before thy saints.

I will freely sacrifice unto thee: I will praise thy name, O LORD; for it is good.

Day and night they go about it upon the walls thereof: mischief also and sorrow are in the midst of it.

Day and night they go about it upon the walls thereof: mischief also and sorrow are in the midst of it.

But it was thou, a man mine equal, my guide, and mine acquaintance.

Thou hast made the earth to tremble; thou hast broken it: heal the breaches thereof; for it shaketh.

Thou hast made the earth to tremble; thou hast broken it: heal the breaches thereof; for it shaketh.

Thou hast given a banner to them that fear thee, that it may be displayed because of the truth. Selah.

Through God we shall do valiantly: for he it is that shall tread down our enemies.

But those that seek my soul, to destroy it, shall go into the lower parts of the earth.

Thou visitest the earth, and waterest it: thou greatly enrichest it with the river of God, which is full of water: thou preparest them corn, when thou hast so provided for it.

Thou visitest the earth, and waterest it: thou greatly enrichest it with the river of God, which is full of water: thou preparest them corn, when thou hast so provided for it.

Thou waterest the ridges thereof abundantly: thou settlest the furrows thereof: thou makest it soft with showers: thou blessest the springing thereof.

Thou, O God, didst send a plentiful rain, whereby thou didst confirm thine inheritance, when it was weary.

The Lord gave the word: great was the company of those that published it.

When the Almighty scattered kings in it, it was white as snow in Salmon.

When the Almighty scattered kings in it, it was white as snow in Salmon.

Why leap ye, ye high hills? this is the hill which God desireth to dwell in; yea, the LORD will dwell in it for ever.

Draw nigh unto my soul, and redeem it: deliver me because of mine enemies.

Let their table become a snare before them: and that which should have been for their welfare, let it become a trap.

For God will save Zion, and will build the cities of Judah: that they may dwell there, and have it in possession.

The seed also of his servants shall inherit it: and they that love his name shall dwell therein.

When I thought to know this, it was too painful for me;

But it is good for me to draw near to God: I have put my trust in the Lord GOD, that I may declare all thy works.

Why withdrawest thou thy hand, even thy right hand? pluck it out of thy bosom.

The earth and all the inhabitants thereof are dissolved: I bear up the pillars of it. Selah.
