For I know that thou wilt bring me to death, And to the house appointed for all living.

Did not he that made me in the womb make him? And did not one fashion us in the womb?
Yea, the strength of their hands, whereto should it profit me? Men in whom ripe age is perished.
Job 30
(Let me be weighed in an even balance, That God may know mine integrity);
As through a wide breach they come: In the midst of the ruin they roll themselves `upon me'.
(Nay, from my youth he grew up with me as with a father, And her have I guided from my mother's womb);
I smiled on them, when they had no confidence; And the light of my countenance they cast not down.
The blessing of him that was ready to perish came upon me; And I caused the widow's heart to sing for joy.
And I brake the jaws of the unrighteous, And plucked the prey out of his teeth.
My root is spread out to the waters, And the dew lieth all night upon my branch;
My glory is fresh in me, And my bow is renewed in my hand.
Because I delivered the poor that cried, The fatherless also, that had none to help him.
And they waited for me as for the rain; And they opened their mouth wide `as' for the latter rain.
For when the ear heard me', then it blessed me; And when the eye saw me', it gave witness unto me:
I was a father to the needy: And the cause of him that I knew not I searched out.
I was eyes to the blind, And feet was I to the lame.
Unto me men gave ear, and waited, And kept silence for my counsel.
I put on righteousness, and it clothed me: My justice was as a robe and a diadem.
Then I said, I shall die in my nest, And I shall multiply my days as the sand:
After my words they spake not again; And my speech distilled upon them.
Behold, all ye yourselves have seen it; Why then are ye become altogether vain?
Job 29
Iron is taken out of the earth, And copper is molten out of the stone.
Job 27
The topaz of Ethiopia shall not equal it, Neither shall it be valued with pure gold.
Surely my lips shall not speak unrighteousness, Neither shall my tongue utter deceit.
That path no bird of prey knoweth, Neither hath the falcon's eye seen it:
Destruction and Death say, We have heard a rumor thereof with our ears.
Will God hear his cry, When trouble cometh upon him?
