American Standard Version of 1901
Versliste
Behold, God will not cast away a perfect man,Neither will he uphold the evil-doers.
{Or, Till he fill}He will yet fill thy mouth with laughter,And thy lips with shouting.
They that hate thee shall be clothed with shame;And the tent of the wicked shall be no more.
There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was {Hebrew: Iyob.}Job; and that man was perfect and upright, and one that feared God, and turned away from evil.
And Jehovah said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job? {Or, that}for there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and turneth away from evil.
And Jehovah said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job? {Or, that}for there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and turneth away from evil: and he still holdeth fast his integrity, although thou movedst me against him, {Hebrew: to swallow him up.}to destroy him without cause.
I, Jehovah, have called thee in righteousness, and will hold thy hand, and will {Or, form}keep thee, and give thee for a covenant of the people, for a light of the Gentiles;
