Job 29:24-25
World English Bible
24 I smiled on them when they had no confidence.
They didn’t reject the light of my face.
25 I chose out their way, and sat as chief.
I lived as a king in the army,
as one who comforts the mourners.

24 If I mocked at them, they did not believe it,

As one who comforts mourners.
