18:022:024 Then shalt thou lay up gold as dust, and the gold of Ophir as the stones of the brooks. 18:022:025 Yea, the Almighty shall be thy defence, and thou shalt have plenty of silver. 18:022:026 For then shalt thou have thy delight in the Almighty, and shalt lift up thy face unto God. 18:022:027 Thou shalt make thy prayer unto him, and he shall hear thee, and thou shalt pay thy vows. 18:022:028 Thou shalt also decree a thing, and it shall be established unto thee: and the light shall shine upon thy ways. 18:022:029 When men are cast down, then thou shalt say, There is lifting up; and he shall save the humble person. 18:022:030 He shall deliver the island of the innocent: and it is delivered by the pureness of thine hands. 18:023:001 Then Job answered and said, 18:023:002 Even to day is my complaint bitter: my stroke is heavier than my groaning. 18:023:003 Oh that I knew where I might find him! that I might come even to his seat! 18:023:004 I would order my cause before him, and fill my mouth with arguments. 18:023:005 I would know the words which he would answer me, and understand what he would say unto me. 18:023:006 Will he plead against me with his great power? No; but he would put strength in me. 18:023:007 There the righteous might dispute with him; so should I be delivered for ever from my judge. 18:023:008 Behold, I go forward, but he is not there; and backward, but I cannot perceive him: 18:023:009 On the left hand, where he doth work, but I cannot behold him: he hideth himself on the right hand, that I cannot see him: 18:023:010 But he knoweth the way that I take: when he hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold. 18:023:011 My foot hath held his steps, his way have I kept, and not declined. 18:023:012 Neither have I gone back from the commandment of his lips; I have esteemed the words of his mouth more than my necessary food. 18:023:013 But he is in one mind, and who can turn him? and what his soul desireth, even that he doeth. 18:023:014 For he performeth the thing that is appointed for me: and many such things are with him. 18:023:015 Therefore am I troubled at his presence: when I consider, I am afraid of him. 18:023:016 For God maketh my heart soft, and the Almighty troubleth me: 18:023:017 Because I was not cut off before the darkness, neither hath he covered the darkness from my face. 18:024:001 Why, seeing times are not hidden from the Almighty, do they that know him not see his days? 18:024:002 Some remove the landmarks; they violently take away flocks, and feed thereof. 18:024:003 They drive away the ass of the fatherless, they take the widow's ox for a pledge.
