Job 22:21-30

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

²¹ “Agree with God,^[a] and be at peace;
    in this way good will come to you.^(A)
22 Receive instruction from his mouth,
    and lay up his words in your heart.^(B)
23 If you return to the Almighty,^[b] you will be restored,
    if you remove unrighteousness from your tents,^(C)
24 if you treat gold like dust
    and gold of Ophir like the stones of the torrent bed,^(D)
25 and if the Almighty^[c] is your gold
    and your precious silver,^(E)
26 then you will delight yourself in the Almighty^[d]
    and lift up your face to God.^(F)
27 You will pray to him, and he will hear you,
    and you will pay your vows.^(G)
28 You will decide on a matter, and it will be established for you,
    and light will shine on your ways.^(H)
29 When others are humiliated, you say it is pride,
    for he saves the humble.^(I)
30 He will deliver even those who are guilty;
    they will escape because of the cleanness of your hands.”^[e](J)
