Job 29:13-17
King James Version
13 The blessing of him that was ready to perish came upon me: and I caused the widow's heart to sing for joy.
14 I put on righteousness, and it clothed me: my judgment was as a robe and a diadem.
15 I was eyes to the blind, and feet was I to the lame.
16 I was a father to the poor: and the cause which I knew not I searched out.
17 And I brake the jaws of the wicked, and plucked the spoil out of his teeth.

13 The dying blessed me,
and I made the widow’s heart rejoice.
14 I clothed myself in righteousness,(A)
and it enveloped me;
my just decisions were like a robe and a turban.
15 I was eyes to the blind
and feet to the lame.(B)
16 I was a father to the needy,
and I examined the case of the stranger.
17 I shattered the fangs of the unjust(C)
and snatched the prey from his teeth.
