King James Version 1611 with Strong's numbers
Versliste
There was a manH376 in the landH776 of UzH5780, whose nameH8034 was JobH347; and that manH376 was perfectH8535 and uprightH3477, and one that fearedH3373 GodH430, and eschewedH5493 evilH7451.
And there were bornH3205 unto him sevenH7651 sonsH1121 and threeH7969 daughtersH1323.
His substanceH4735 also was sevenH7651 thousandH505 sheepH6629, and threeH7969 thousandH505 camelsH1581, and fiveH2568 hundredH3967 yokeH6776 of oxenH1241, and fiveH2568 hundredH3967 she assesH860, and a veryH3966 greatH7227 householdH5657; so that this manH376 was the greatestH1419 of all the menH1121 of the eastH6924. {substance: or, cattle} {household: or, husbandry} {men: Heb. sons}
And his sonsH1121 wentH1980 and feastedH4960+H6213 in their housesH1004, every oneH376 his dayH3117; and sentH7971 and calledH7121 for their threeH7969 sistersH269 to eatH398 and to drinkH8354 with them.
And it was so, when the daysH3117 of their feastingH4960 were gone aboutH5362, that JobH347 sentH7971 and sanctifiedH6942 them, and rose up earlyH7925 in the morningH1242, and offeredH5927 burnt offeringsH5930 according to the numberH4557 of them all: for JobH347 saidH559, It may beH194 that my sonsH1121 have sinnedH2398, and cursedH1288 GodH430 in their heartsH3824. Thus didH6213 JobH347 continuallyH3117. {continually: Heb. all the days}
Now there was a dayH3117 when the sonsH1121 of GodH430 cameH935 to presentH3320 themselves before the LORDH3068, and SatanH7854 cameH935 also amongH8432 them. {Satan: Heb. the adversary} {among: Heb. in the midst of}
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto SatanH7854, WhenceH370 comestH935 thou? Then SatanH7854 answeredH6030 the LORDH3068, and saidH559, From going to and froH7751 in the earthH776, and from walking up and downH1980 in it.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto SatanH7854, Hast thou consideredH7760+H3820 my servantH5650 JobH347, that there is none like him in the earthH776, a perfectH8535 and an uprightH3477 manH376, one that fearethH3373 GodH430, and eschewethH5493 evilH7451? {considered: Heb. set thy heart on}
Then SatanH7854 answeredH6030 the LORDH3068, and saidH559, Doth JobH347 fearH3372 GodH430 for noughtH2600?
Hast not thou made an hedgeH7753 about him, and aboutH1157 his houseH1004, and about all that he hath on every sideH5439? thou hast blessedH1288 the workH4639 of his handsH3027, and his substanceH4735 is increasedH6555 in the landH776. {substance: or, cattle}
ButH199 put forthH7971 thine handH3027 now, and touchH5060 all that he hath, and he will curseH1288+H3808 thee to thy faceH6440. {and he…: Heb. if he curse thee not to thy face}
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto SatanH7854, Behold, all that he hath is in thy powerH3027; only upon himself put not forthH7971 thine handH3027. So SatanH7854 went forthH3318 from the presenceH6440 of the LORDH3068. {power: Heb. hand}
And there was a dayH3117 when his sonsH1121 and his daughtersH1323 were eatingH398 and drinkingH8354 wineH3196 in their eldestH1060 brother'sH251 houseH1004:
And there cameH935 a messengerH4397 unto JobH347, and saidH559, The oxenH1241 were plowingH2790, and the assesH860 feedingH7462 besideH3027 them:
And the SabeansH7614 fellH5307 upon them, and took them awayH3947; yea, they have slainH5221 the servantsH5288 with the edgeH6310 of the swordH2719; and I only am escapedH4422 alone to tellH5046 thee.
While he was yet speakingH1696, there cameH935 also another, and saidH559, The fireH784 of GodH430 is fallenH5307 from heavenH8064, and hath burned upH1197 the sheepH6629, and the servantsH5288, and consumedH398 them; and I only am escapedH4422 alone to tellH5046 thee. {The fire…: or, A great fire}
While he was yet speakingH1696, there cameH935 also another, and saidH559, The ChaldeansH3778 made outH7760 threeH7969 bandsH7218, and fellH6584 upon the camelsH1581, and have carried them awayH3947, yea, and slainH5221 the servantsH5288 with the edgeH6310 of the swordH2719; and I only am escapedH4422 alone to tellH5046 thee. {fell: Heb. rushed}
While he was yet speakingH1696, there cameH935 also another, and saidH559, Thy sonsH1121 and thy daughtersH1323 were eatingH398 and drinkingH8354 wineH3196 in their eldestH1060 brother'sH251 houseH1004:
And, behold, there cameH935 a greatH1419 windH7307 fromH5676 the wildernessH4057, and smoteH5060 the fourH702 cornersH6438 of the houseH1004, and it fellH5307 upon the young menH5288, and they are deadH4191; and I only am escapedH4422 alone to tellH5046 thee. {from…: Heb. from aside, etc}
Then JobH347 aroseH6965, and rentH7167 his mantleH4598, and shavedH1494 his headH7218, and fell downH5307 upon the groundH776, and worshippedH7812, {mantle: or, robe}
And saidH559, NakedH6174 came I outH3318 of my mother'sH517 wombH990, and nakedH6174 shall I returnH7725 thither: the LORDH3068 gaveH5414, and the LORDH3068 hath taken awayH3947; blessedH1288 be the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068.
In all this JobH347 sinnedH2398 not, nor chargedH5414 GodH430 foolishlyH8604. {charged…: or, attributed folly to God}
Lo, all these things workethH6466 GodH410 oftentimesH6471+H7969 with manH1397, {oftentimes: Heb. twice and thrice}
To the chief MusicianH5329, A Psalm of DavidH1732. The foolH5036 hath saidH559 in his heartH3820, There is no GodH430. They are corruptH7843, they have done abominableH8581 worksH5949, there is none that doethH6213 goodH2896.
The LORDH3068 looked downH8259 from heavenH8064 upon the childrenH1121 of menH120, to seeH7200 if thereH3426 were any that did understandH7919, and seekH1875 GodH430.
They are all gone asideH5493, they are all togetherH3162 become filthyH444: there is none that doethH6213 goodH2896, no, not oneH259. {filthy: Heb. stinking}
Have all the workersH6466 of iniquityH205 no knowledgeH3045? who eat upH398 my peopleH5971 as they eatH398 breadH3899, and callH7121 not upon the LORDH3068.
There were they in greatH6343 fearH6342: for GodH430 is in the generationH1755 of the righteousH6662. {were…: Heb. they feared a fear}
Ye have shamedH954 the counselH6098 of the poorH6041, because the LORDH3068 is his refugeH4268.
Oh thatH5414 the salvationH3444 of IsraelH3478 were come out of ZionH6726! when the LORDH3068 bringeth backH7725 the captivityH7622 of his peopleH5971, JacobH3290 shall rejoiceH1523, and IsraelH3478 shall be gladH8055. {Oh…: Heb. Who will give}
BeholdH2005, the LORD'SH3068 handH3027 is not shortenedH7114, that it cannot saveH3467; neither his earH241 heavyH3513, that it cannot hearH8085:
But your iniquitiesH5771 have separatedH914 betweenH996 you and your GodH430, and your sinsH2403 have hidH5641 his faceH6440 from you, that he will not hearH8085. {have hid: or, have made him hide}
For your handsH3709 are defiledH1351 with bloodH1818, and your fingersH676 with iniquityH5771; your lipsH8193 have spokenH1696 liesH8267, your tongueH3956 hath mutteredH1897 perversenessH5766.
None callethH7121 for justiceH6664, nor any pleadethH8199 for truthH530: they trustH982 in vanityH8414, and speakH1696 liesH7723; they conceiveH2029 mischiefH5999, and bring forthH3205 iniquityH205.
They hatchH1234 cockatrice'H6848 eggsH1000, and weaveH707 the spider'sH5908 webH6980: he that eatethH398 of their eggsH1000 diethH4191, and that which is crushedH2116 breaketh outH1234 into a viperH660. {cockatrice': or, adder's} {crushed…: or, sprinkled is as if there brake out a viper}
Their websH6980 shall not become garmentsH899, neither shall they coverH3680 themselves with their worksH4639: their worksH4639 are worksH4639 of iniquityH205, and the actH6467 of violenceH2555 is in their handsH3709.
Their feetH7272 runH7323 to evilH7451, and they make hasteH4116 to shedH8210 innocentH5355 bloodH1818: their thoughtsH4284 are thoughtsH4284 of iniquityH205; wastingH7701 and destructionH7667 are in their pathsH4546. {destruction: Heb. breaking}
The wayH1870 of peaceH7965 they knowH3045 not; and there is no judgmentH4941 in their goingsH4570: they have made them crookedH6140 pathsH5410: whosoever goethH1869 therein shall not knowH3045 peaceH7965. {judgment: or, right}
Therefore is judgmentH4941 farH7368 from us, neither doth justiceH6666 overtakeH5381 us: we waitH6960 for lightH216, but behold obscurityH2822; for brightnessH5054, but we walkH1980 in darknessH653.
We gropeH1659 for the wallH7023 like the blindH5787, and we gropeH1659 as if we had no eyesH5869: we stumbleH3782 at noondayH6672 as in the nightH5399; we are in desolateH820 places as deadH4191 men.
We roarH1993 all like bearsH1677, and mournH1897 soreH1897 like dovesH3123: we lookH6960 for judgmentH4941, but there is none; for salvationH3444, but it is far offH7368 from us.
For our transgressionsH6588 are multipliedH7231 before thee, and our sinsH2403 testifyH6030 against us: for our transgressionsH6588 are with us; and as for our iniquitiesH5771, we knowH3045 them;
In transgressingH6586 and lyingH3584 against the LORDH3068, and departing awayH5253 fromH310 our GodH430, speakingH1696 oppressionH6233 and revoltH5627, conceivingH2029 and utteringH1897 from the heartH3820 wordsH1697 of falsehoodH8267.
And judgmentH4941 is turned awayH5253 backwardH268, and justiceH6666 standethH5975 afar offH7350: for truthH571 is fallenH3782 in the streetH7339, and equityH5229 cannotH3201 enterH935.
Yea, truthH571 failethH5737; and he that departethH5493 from evilH7451 maketh himself a preyH7997: and the LORDH3068 sawH7200 it, and it displeasedH3415+H5869 him that there was no judgmentH4941. {maketh…: or, is accounted mad} {it displeased…: Heb. it was evil in his eyes}
And he sawH7200 that there was no manH376, and wonderedH8074 that there was no intercessorH6293: therefore his armH2220 brought salvationH3467 unto him; and his righteousnessH6666, it sustainedH5564 him.
For he put onH3847 righteousnessH6666 as a breastplateH8302, and an helmetH3553 of salvationH3444 upon his headH7218; and he put onH3847 the garmentsH899 of vengeanceH5359 for clothingH8516, and was cladH5844 with zealH7068 as a clokeH4598.
According toH5921 their deedsH1578, accordingly he will repayH7999, furyH2534 to his adversariesH6862, recompenceH1576 to his enemiesH341; to the islandsH339 he will repayH7999 recompenceH1576. {deeds: Heb. recompences}
So shall they fearH3372 the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068 from the westH4628, and his gloryH3519 from the risingH4217 of the sunH8121. When the enemyH6862 shall come inH935 like a floodH5104, the SpiritH7307 of the LORDH3068 shall lift up a standardH5127 against him. {lift…: or, put him to flight}
And the RedeemerH1350 shall comeH935 to ZionH6726, and unto them that turnH7725 from transgressionH6588 in JacobH3290, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
As for me, this is my covenantH1285 with them, saithH559 the LORDH3068; My spiritH7307 that is upon thee, and my wordsH1697 which I have putH7760 in thy mouthH6310, shall not departH4185 out of thy mouthH6310, nor out of the mouthH6310 of thy seedH2233, nor out of the mouthH6310 of thy seed'sH2233 seedH2233, saithH559 the LORDH3068, from henceforth and forH5704 everH5769.
It is the gloryH3519 of GodH430 to concealH5641 a thingH1697: but the honourH3519 of kingsH4428 is to search outH2713 a matterH1697.
Which forsakethH5800 the guideH441 of her youthH5271, and forgettethH7911 the covenantH1285 of her GodH430.
Who knowethH3045 not in all these that the handH3027 of the LORDH3068 hath wroughtH6213 this?
