New Testament

Job 27:4-14 American Standard Version (ASV)

4. Surely my lips shall not speak unrighteousness, Neither shall my tongue utter deceit.

5. Far be it from me that I should justify you: Till I die I will not put away mine integrity from me.

6. My righteousness I hold fast, and will not let it go: My heart shall not reproach me so long as I live.

7. Let mine enemy be as the wicked, And let him that riseth up against me be as the unrighteous.

8. For what is the hope of the godless, though he get him gain, When God taketh away his soul?

9. Will God hear his cry, When trouble cometh upon him?

10. Will he delight himself in the Almighty, And call upon God at all times?

11. I will teach you concerning the hand of God; That which is with the Almighty will I not conceal.

12. Behold, all ye yourselves have seen it; Why then are ye become altogether vain?

13. This is the portion of a wicked man with God, And the heritage of oppressors, which they receive from the Almighty:

14. If his children be multiplied, it is for the sword; And his offspring shall not be satisfied with bread.
