Job 27:7-12
1599 Geneva Bible
7 Mine enemy shall be as the wicked, and he that riseth against me, as the unrighteous.
8 For what [a]hope hath the hypocrite when he hath heaped up riches, if God take away his soul?
9 Will God hear his cry, when trouble cometh upon him?
10 Will he set his delight on the Almighty? will he call upon God at all times?
11 I will teach you what is in the hand of [b]God, and I will not conceal that which is with the Almighty.
12 Behold, all ye yourselves [c]have seen it: why then do you thus vanish [d]vanity?
