Job 22:21-30
Legacy Standard Bible
21 “[a](A)Yield now and be at peace with Him;
Thereby good will come to you.
22 Please receive [b](B)instruction from His mouth
And set His words in your heart.
23 If you (C)return to [c]the Almighty, you will be [d]restored;
If you (D)remove unrighteousness far from your tent,
24 And (E)put your [e]gold in the dust,
And the gold of Ophir among the stones of the brooks,
25 Then [f]the Almighty will be your [g]gold
And choice silver to you.
26 For then you will (F)delight in [h]the Almighty
And lift up your face to God.
27 You will (G)entreat Him, and (H)He will hear you;
And you will pay your vows.
28 You will also decree a thing, and it will be established for you;
And (I)light will shine on your ways.
29 When [i]some are cast down, you will speak with [j]confidence,
And the [k](J)humble person He will save.
30 He will provide escape for one who is not innocent,
And he will (K)escape through the cleanness of your hands.”

who will be rescued by the purity of your hands.(K)
