¹⁴ For he had possession of flocks, and possession of herds, and great store of servants: and the Philistines envied him.

¹¹ And his brethren envied him; but his father observed the saying.

⁴ Wrath is cruel, and anger is outrageous; but who is able to stand before envy?

²² The blessing of the Lord, it maketh rich, and he addeth no sorrow with it.

¹³ That our garners may be full, affording all manner of store: that our sheep may bring forth thousands and ten thousands in our streets:

¹⁴ That our oxen may be strong to labour; that there be no breaking in, nor going out; that there be no complaining in our streets.

³ Wealth and riches shall be in his house: and his righteousness endureth for ever.

¹² So the Lord blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning: for he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she asses.

² For wrath killeth the foolish man, and envy slayeth the silly one.

³ His substance also was seven thousand sheep, and three thousand camels, and five hundred yoke of oxen, and five hundred she asses, and a very great household; so that this man was the greatest of all the men of the east.
