(For my life is yet whole in me, And the spirit of God is in my nostrils);

He buildeth his house as the moth, And as a booth which the keeper maketh.

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

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

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

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

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

Those that remain of him shall be buried in death, And his widows shall make no lamentation.

He may prepare it, but the just shall put it on, And the innocent shall divide the silver.

The east wind carrieth him away, and he departeth; And it sweepeth him out of his place.

He lieth down rich, but he shall not be gathered `to his fathers'; He openeth his eyes, and he is not.

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

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

For `God' shall hurl at him, and not spare: He would fain flee out of his hand.

Men shall clap their hands at him, And shall hiss him out of his place.

And Job again took up his parable, and said,

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

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

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