Job 29:2-30:31
King James Version
2 Oh that I were as in months past, as in the days when God preserved me;
3 When his candle shined upon my head, and when by his light I walked through darkness;
4 As I was in the days of my youth, when the secret of God was upon my tabernacle;
5 When the Almighty was yet with me, when my children were about me;
6 When I washed my steps with butter, and the rock poured me out rivers of oil;
7 When I went out to the gate through the city, when I prepared my seat in the street!
8 The young men saw me, and hid themselves: and the aged arose, and stood up.
9 The princes refrained talking, and laid their hand on their mouth.
10 The nobles held their peace, and their tongue cleaved to the roof of their mouth.
11 When the ear heard me, then it blessed me; and when the eye saw me, it gave witness to me:
12 Because I delivered the poor that cried, and the fatherless, and him that had none to help him.
13 The blessing of him that was ready to perish came upon me: and I caused the widow's heart to sing for joy.
14 I put on righteousness, and it clothed me: my judgment was as a robe and a diadem.
15 I was eyes to the blind, and feet was I to the lame.
16 I was a father to the poor: and the cause which I knew not I searched out.
17 And I brake the jaws of the wicked, and plucked the spoil out of his teeth.
18 Then I said, I shall die in my nest, and I shall multiply my days as the sand.
19 My root was spread out by the waters, and the dew lay all night upon my branch.
20 My glory was fresh in me, and my bow was renewed in my hand.
21 Unto me men gave ear, and waited, and kept silence at my counsel.
22 After my words they spake not again; and my speech dropped upon them.
23 And they waited for me as for the rain; and they opened their mouth wide as for the latter rain.
24 If I laughed on them, they believed it not; and the light of my countenance they cast not down.
25 I chose out their way, and sat chief, and dwelt as a king in the army, as one that comforteth the mourners.
30 But now they that are younger than I have me in derision, whose fathers I would have disdained to have set with the dogs of my flock.
2 Yea, whereto might the strength of their hands profit me, in whom old age was perished?
3 For want and famine they were solitary; fleeing into the wilderness in former time desolate and waste.
4 Who cut up mallows by the bushes, and juniper roots for their meat.
5 They were driven forth from among men, (they cried after them as after a thief;)
6 To dwell in the cliffs of the valleys, in caves of the earth, and in the rocks.
7 Among the bushes they brayed; under the nettles they were gathered together.
8 They were children of fools, yea, children of base men: they were viler than the earth.
9 And now am I their song, yea, I am their byword.
10 They abhor me, they flee far from me, and spare not to spit in my face.
11 Because he hath loosed my cord, and afflicted me, they have also let loose the bridle before me.
12 Upon my right hand rise the youth; they push away my feet, and they raise up against me the ways of their destruction.
13 They mar my path, they set forward my calamity, they have no helper.
14 They came upon me as a wide breaking in of waters: in the desolation they rolled themselves upon me.
15 Terrors are turned upon me: they pursue my soul as the wind: and my welfare passeth away as a cloud.
16 And now my soul is poured out upon me; the days of affliction have taken hold upon me.
17 My bones are pierced in me in the night season: and my sinews take no rest.
18 By the great force of my disease is my garment changed: it bindeth me about as the collar of my coat.
19 He hath cast me into the mire, and I am become like dust and ashes.
20 I cry unto thee, and thou dost not hear me: I stand up, and thou regardest me not.
21 Thou art become cruel to me: with thy strong hand thou opposest thyself against me.
22 Thou liftest me up to the wind; thou causest me to ride upon it, and dissolvest my substance.
23 For I know that thou wilt bring me to death, and to the house appointed for all living.
24 Howbeit he will not stretch out his hand to the grave, though they cry in his destruction.
25 Did not I weep for him that was in trouble? was not my soul grieved for the poor?
26 When I looked for good, then evil came unto me: and when I waited for light, there came darkness.
27 My bowels boiled, and rested not: the days of affliction prevented me.
28 I went mourning without the sun: I stood up, and I cried in the congregation.
29 I am a brother to dragons, and a companion to owls.
30 My skin is black upon me, and my bones are burned with heat.
31 My harp also is turned to mourning, and my organ into the voice of them that weep.
Job 29:2-30:31
New International Version
2 “How I long for the months gone by,(A)
for the days when God watched over me,(B)
3 when his lamp shone on my head
and by his light I walked through darkness!(C)
4 Oh, for the days when I was in my prime,
when God’s intimate friendship(D) blessed my house,(E)
5 when the Almighty was still with me
and my children(F) were around me,(G)
6 when my path was drenched with cream(H)
and the rock(I) poured out for me streams of olive oil.(J)
7 “When I went to the gate(K) of the city
and took my seat in the public square,
8 the young men saw me and stepped aside(L)
and the old men rose to their feet;(M)
9 the chief men refrained from speaking(N)
and covered their mouths with their hands;(O)
10 the voices of the nobles were hushed,(P)
and their tongues stuck to the roof of their mouths.(Q)
11 Whoever heard me spoke well of me,
and those who saw me commended me,(R)
12 because I rescued the poor(S) who cried for help,
and the fatherless(T) who had none to assist them.(U)
13 The one who was dying blessed me;(V)
I made the widow’s(W) heart sing.
14 I put on righteousness(X) as my clothing;
justice was my robe and my turban.(Y)
15 I was eyes(Z) to the blind
and feet to the lame.(AA)
16 I was a father to the needy;(AB)
I took up the case(AC) of the stranger.(AD)
17 I broke the fangs of the wicked
and snatched the victims(AE) from their teeth.(AF)
18 “I thought, ‘I will die in my own house,
my days as numerous as the grains of sand.(AG)
19 My roots will reach to the water,(AH)
and the dew will lie all night on my branches.(AI)
20 My glory will not fade;(AJ)
the bow(AK) will be ever new in my hand.’(AL)
21 “People listened to me expectantly,
waiting in silence for my counsel.(AM)
22 After I had spoken, they spoke no more;(AN)
my words fell gently on their ears.(AO)
23 They waited for me as for showers
and drank in my words as the spring rain.(AP)
24 When I smiled at them, they scarcely believed it;
the light of my face(AQ) was precious to them.[a](AR)
25 I chose the way for them and sat as their chief;(AS)
I dwelt as a king(AT) among his troops;
I was like one who comforts mourners.(AU)
30 “But now they mock me,(AV)
men younger than I,
whose fathers I would have disdained
to put with my sheep dogs.(AW)
2 Of what use was the strength of their hands to me,
since their vigor had gone from them?
3 Haggard from want and hunger,
they roamed[b] the parched land(AX)
in desolate wastelands(AY) at night.(AZ)
4 In the brush they gathered salt herbs,(BA)
and their food[c] was the root of the broom bush.(BB)
5 They were banished from human society,
shouted at as if they were thieves.
6 They were forced to live in the dry stream beds,
among the rocks and in holes in the ground.(BC)
7 They brayed(BD) among the bushes(BE)
and huddled in the undergrowth.
8 A base and nameless brood,(BF)
they were driven out of the land.(BG)
9 “And now those young men mock me(BH) in song;(BI)
I have become a byword(BJ) among them.
10 They detest me(BK) and keep their distance;
they do not hesitate to spit in my face.(BL)
11 Now that God has unstrung my bow(BM) and afflicted me,(BN)
they throw off restraint(BO) in my presence.
12 On my right(BP) the tribe[d] attacks;
they lay snares(BQ) for my feet,(BR)
they build their siege ramps against me.(BS)
13 They break up my road;(BT)
they succeed in destroying me.(BU)
‘No one can help him,’ they say.
14 They advance as through a gaping breach;(BV)
amid the ruins they come rolling in.
15 Terrors(BW) overwhelm me;(BX)
my dignity is driven away as by the wind,
my safety vanishes like a cloud.(BY)
16 “And now my life ebbs away;(BZ)
days of suffering grip me.(CA)
17 Night pierces my bones;
my gnawing pains never rest.(CB)
18 In his great power(CC) God becomes like clothing to me[e];
he binds me like the neck of my garment.
19 He throws me into the mud,(CD)
and I am reduced to dust and ashes.(CE)
20 “I cry out to you,(CF) God, but you do not answer;(CG)
I stand up, but you merely look at me.
21 You turn on me ruthlessly;(CH)
with the might of your hand(CI) you attack me.(CJ)
22 You snatch me up and drive me before the wind;(CK)
you toss me about in the storm.(CL)
23 I know you will bring me down to death,(CM)
to the place appointed for all the living.(CN)
24 “Surely no one lays a hand on a broken man(CO)
when he cries for help in his distress.(CP)
25 Have I not wept for those in trouble?(CQ)
Has not my soul grieved for the poor?(CR)
26 Yet when I hoped for good, evil came;
when I looked for light, then came darkness.(CS)
27 The churning inside me never stops;(CT)
days of suffering confront me.(CU)
28 I go about blackened,(CV) but not by the sun;
I stand up in the assembly and cry for help.(CW)
29 I have become a brother of jackals,(CX)
a companion of owls.(CY)
30 My skin grows black(CZ) and peels;(DA)
my body burns with fever.(DB)
31 My lyre is tuned to mourning,(DC)
and my pipe(DD) to the sound of wailing.
2 Chronicles 30:23-26
King James Version
23 And the whole assembly took counsel to keep other seven days: and they kept other seven days with gladness.
24 For Hezekiah king of Judah did give to the congregation a thousand bullocks and seven thousand sheep; and the princes gave to the congregation a thousand bullocks and ten thousand sheep: and a great number of priests sanctified themselves.
25 And all the congregation of Judah, with the priests and the Levites, and all the congregation that came out of Israel, and the strangers that came out of the land of Israel, and that dwelt in Judah, rejoiced.
26 So there was great joy in Jerusalem: for since the time of Solomon the son of David king of Israel there was not the like in Jerusalem.
