Verse
Job - ch 33 v 1 - 20
- Hear therefore, O Job, my speeches, and hearken to all my words.
- Behold now I have opened my mouth, let my tongue speak within my jaws.
- My words are from my upright heart, and my lips shall speak a pure sentence.
- The spirit of God made me, and the breath of the Almighty gave me life.
- If thou canst, answer me, and stand up against my face.
- Behold God hath made me as well as thee, and of the same clay I also was formed.
- But yet let not my wonder terrify thee, and let not my eloquence be burdensome to thee.
- Now thou has said in my hearing, and I have heard the voice of thy words :
- I am clean, and without sin : I am unspotted, and there is no iniquity in me.
- Because he hath found complaints against me, therefore he hath counted me for his enemy.
- He hath put my feet in the stocks, he hath observed all my paths.
- Now this is the thing in which thou art not justified : I will answer thee, that God is greater than man.
- Dost thou strive against him, because he hath not answered thee to all words?
- God speaketh once, and repeateth not the selfsame thing the second time.
- By a dream in a vision by night, when deep sleep falleth upon men, and they are sleeping in their beds :
- Then he openeth the ears of men, and teaching instructeth them in what they are to learn.
- That he may withdraw a man from the things he is doing, and may deliver him from pride.
- Rescuing his soul from corruption : and his life from passing to the sword.
- He rebuketh also by sorrow in the bed, and he maketh all his bones to wither.
- Bread becometh abominable to him in his life, and to his soul the meat which before he desired.
