Job 29:1-6

Lexham English Bible

² “O that I were^[b] as in the months before,
as in the days when God watched over me,
³ when his shining lamp was over my head—
by his light I walked through darkness—
⁴ as when I was in the days of my prime,
when God’s confiding was over my house,^[c]
5 when Shaddaiwas still with me,
my children were all around me,
⁶ when my paths were washed in sour milk,
and the rock poured out streams of oil for me.
