MOREOVER Job continued his parable, and said,</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013965">2</a>. As God liveth, who hath taken away my judgment; and the Almighty, who hath vexed my soul;</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013966">3</a>. All the while my breath is in me, and the spirit of God is in my nostrils;</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013967">4</a>. My lips shall not speak wickedness, nor my tongue utter deceit.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013968">5</a>. God forbid that I should justify you: till I die I will not remove mine integrity from me.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013969">6</a>. My righteousness I hold fast, and will not let it go: my heart shall not reproach me so long as I live.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013970">7</a>. Let mine enemy be as the wicked, and he that riseth up against me as the unrighteous.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013971">8</a>. For what is the hope of the hypocrite, though he hath gained, when God taketh away his soul?</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013972">9</a>. Will God hear his cry when trouble cometh upon him?</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013973">10</a>. Will he delight himself in the Almighty?  will he always call upon God?</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013974">11</a>. I will teach you by the hand of God: that which is with the Almighty will I not conceal.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013975">12</a>. Behold, all ye yourselves have seen it; why then are ye thus altogether vain?</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013976">13</a>. This is the portion of a wicked man with God, and the heritage of oppressors, which they shall receive of the Almighty.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013977">14</a>. If his children be multiplied, it is for the sword: and his offspring shall not be satisfied with bread.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013978">15</a>. Those that remain of him shall be buried in death: and his widows shall not weep.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013979">16</a>. Though he heap up silver as the dust, and prepare raiment as the clay;</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013980">17</a>. He may prepare it, but the just shall put it on, and the innocent shall divide the silver.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013981">18</a>. He buildeth his house as a moth, and as a booth that the keeper maketh.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013982">19</a>. The rich man shall lie down, but he shall not be gathered: he openeth his eyes, and he is not.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013983">20</a>. Terrors take hold on him as waters, a tempest stealeth him away in the night.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013984">21</a>. The east wind carrieth him away, and he departeth: and as a storm hurleth him out of his place.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013985">22</a>. For God shall cast upon him, and not spare: he would fain flee out of his hand.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013986">23</a>. Men shall clap their hands at him, and shall hiss him out of his place.</li>
