Job 29:1-6

New American Standard Bible 1995

² “Oh that I were as in months gone by,
As in the days when God ^(B)watched over me;
³ When ^(C)His lamp shone over my head,
And ^(D)by His light I walked through darkness;
⁴ As I was in ^[a]the prime of my days,
When the ^[b](E)friendship of God was over my tent;
⁵ When ^[c]the Almighty was yet with me,
And my children were around me;
⁶ When my steps were bathed in ^(F)butter,
And the ^(G)rock poured out for me streams of oil!
