Read Bible Book Of Job Chapter 29 In Online
1 - Job Continued His Discourse:
2 - "How I Long For The Months Gone By, For The Days When God Watched Over Me,
3 - When His Lamp Shone Upon My Head And By His Light I Walked Through Darkness!
4 - Oh, For The Days When I Was In My Prime, When God's Intimate Friendship Blessed My House,
5 - When The Almighty Was Still With Me And My Children Were Around Me,
6 - When My Path Was Drenched With Cream And The Rock Poured Out For Me Streams Of Olive Oil.
7 - "When I Went To The Gate Of The City And Took My Seat In The Public Square,
8 - The Young Men Saw Me And Stepped Aside And The Old Men Rose To Their Feet;
9 - The Chief Men Refrained From Speaking And Covered Their Mouths With Their Hands;
10 - The Voices Of The Nobles Were Hushed, And Their Tongues Stuck To The Roof Of Their Mouths.
11 - Whoever Heard Me Spoke Well Of Me, And Those Who Saw Me Commended Me,
12 - Because I Rescued The Poor Who Cried For Help, And The Fatherless Who Had None To Assist Him.
13 - The Man Who Was Dying Blessed Me; I Made The Widow's Heart Sing.
14 - I Put On Righteousness As My Clothing; Justice Was My Robe And My Turban.
15 - I Was Eyes To The Blind And Feet To The Lame.
16 - I Was A Father To The Needy; I Took Up The Case Of The Stranger.
17 - I Broke The Fangs Of The Wicked And Snatched The Victims From Their Teeth.
18 - "I Thought, 'I Will Die In My Own House, My Days As Numerous As The Grains Of Sand.
19 - My Roots Will Reach To The Water, And The Dew Will Lie All Night On My Branches.
20 - My Glory Will Remain Fresh In Me, The Bow Ever New In My Hand.'
21 - "Men Listened To Me Expectantly, Waiting In Silence For My Counsel.
22 - After I Had Spoken, They Spoke No More; My Words Fell Gently On Their Ears.
23 - They Waited For Me As For Showers And Drank In My Words As The Spring Rain.
24 - When I Smiled At Them, They Scarcely Believed It; The Light Of My Face Was Precious To Them.
25 - I Chose The Way For Them And Sat As Their Chief; I Dwelt As A King Among His Troops; I Was Like One Who Comforts Mourners.
