13
 We [Paul and his coworkers] having the same spirit of faith, according as it is written, I believed, and therefore have I spoken; we also believe, and therefore speak;
14
 knowing that he which raised up the Lord Jesus shall raise up us also by Jesus, and shall present
us
with you.
15
 For all things
are
for your sakes, that the abundant grace might through the thanksgiving of many redound to the glory of God.
16
 For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward
man
is renewed day by day.
17
 For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding
and
eternal weight of glory;
18
 while we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen
are
temporal; but the things which are not seen
are
eternal.
5:
1
 For we know that if our earthly house of
this
tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.
2
 For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven:
3
 if so be that being clothed we shall not be found naked.
4
 For we that are in
this
tabernacle do groan, being burdened: not for that we would be unclothed, but clothed upon, that mortality might be swallowed up of life.
5
 Now he that hath wrought us for the selfsame thing
is
God, who also hath given unto us the earnest of the Spirit.
6
 Therefore
we are
always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord:
7
 (for we walk by faith, not by sight:)
8
 we are confident,
I say,
and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.
9
 Wherefore we labour, that, whether present or absent, we may be accepted of him.
10
 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things
done
in
his
body, according to that he hath done, whether
it be
good or bad.
9
 But thou [God] hast cast off, and put us to shame; and goest not forth with our armies.
10
 Thou makest us to turn back from the enemy: and they which hate us spoil for themselves.
11
 Thou hast given us like sheep
appointed
for meat; and hast scattered us among the heathen.
12
 Thou sellest thy people for nought, and dost not increase
thy wealth
by their price.
13
 Thou makest us a reproach to our neighbours, a scorn and a derision to them that are round about us.
14
 Thou makest us a byword among the heathen, a shaking of the head among the people.
15
 My confusion
is
continually before me, and the shame of my face hath covered me,
16
 For the voice of him that reproacheth and blasphemeth; by reason of the enemy and avenger.
17
 All this is come upon us; yet have we not forgotten thee, neither have we dealt falsely in thy covenant.
18
 Our heart is not turned back, neither have our steps declined from thy way;
19
 Though thou hast sore broken us in the place of dragons, and covered us with the shadow of death.
20
 If we have forgotten the name of our God, or stretched out our hands to a strange god;
21
 Shall not God search this out? for he knoweth the secrets of the heart.
22
 Yea, for thy sake are we killed all the day long; we are counted as sheep for the slaughter.
23
 Awake, why sleepest thou, O Lord? arise, cast
us
not off for ever.
24
 Wherefore hidest thou thy face,
and
forgettest our affliction and our oppression?
25
 For our soul is bowed down to the dust: our belly cleaveth unto the earth.
26
 Arise for our help, and redeem us for thy mercies' sake.
13
 The slothful
man
saith,
There is
a lion without, I shall be slain in the streets.

1
 Moreover the L
ORD
answered Job, and said,
2
 Shall he that contendeth with the Almighty instruct
him?
he that reproveth God, let him answer it.
3
 Then Job answered the L
ORD
, and said,
4
 Behold, I am vile; what shall I answer thee? I will lay mine hand upon my mouth.
5
 Once have I spoken; but I will not answer: yea, twice; but I will proceed no further.
6
 Then answered the L
ORD
unto Job out of the whirlwind, and said,
7
 Gird up thy loins now like a man: I will demand of thee, and declare thou unto me.
8
 Wilt thou also disannul my judgment? wilt thou condemn me, that thou mayest be righteous?
9
 Hast thou an arm like God? or canst thou thunder with a voice like him?
10
 Deck thyself now
with
majesty and excellency; and array thyself with glory and beauty.
11
 Cast abroad the rage of thy wrath: and behold every one
that is
proud, and abase him.
12
 Look on every one
that is
proud,
and
bring him low; and tread down the wicked in their place.
13
 Hide them in the dust together;
and
bind their faces in secret.
14
 Then will I also confess unto thee that thine own right hand can save thee.
15
 Behold now behemoth, which I made with thee; he eateth grass as an ox.
16
 Lo now, his strength
is
in his loins, and his force
is
in the navel of his belly.
17
 He moveth his tail like a cedar: the sinews of his stones are wrapped together.
18
 His bones
are as
strong pieces of brass; his bones
are
like bars of iron.
19
 He
is
the chief of the ways of God: he that made him can make his sword to approach
unto him.
20
 Surely the mountains bring him forth food, where all the beasts of the field play.
21
 He lieth under the shady trees, in the covert of the reed, and fens.
22
 The shady trees cover him
with
their shadow; the willows of the brook compass him about.
23
 Behold, he drinketh up a river,
and
hasteth not: he trusteth that he can draw up Jordan into his mouth.
24
 He taketh it with his eyes:
his
nose pierceth through snares.
41:
1
 Canst thou draw out leviathan with an hook? or his tongue with a cord
which
thou lettest down?
2
 Canst thou put an hook into his nose? or bore his jaw through with a thorn?
3
 Will he make many supplications unto thee? will he speak soft
words
unto thee?
4
 Will he make a covenant with thee? wilt thou take him for a servant for ever?
5
 Wilt thou play with him as
with
a bird? or wilt thou bind him for thy maidens?
6
 Shall the companions make a banquet of him? shall they part him among the merchants?
7
 Canst thou fill his skin with barbed irons? or his head with fish spears?
8
 Lay thine hand upon him, remember the battle, do no more.
9
 Behold, the hope of him is in vain: shall not
one
be cast down even at the sight of him?
10
 None
is so
fierce that dare stir him up: who then is able to stand before me?
11
 Who hath prevented me, that I should repay
him? whatsoever is
under the whole heaven is mine.
12
 I will not conceal his parts, nor his power, nor his comely proportion.
13
 Who can discover the face of his garment?
or
who can come
to him
with his double bridle?
14
 Who can open the doors of his face? his teeth
are
terrible round about.
15
Â
His
scales
are his
pride, shut up together
as with
a close seal.
16
 One is so near to another, that no air can come between them.
17
 They are joined one to another, they stick together, that they cannot be sundered.
18
 By his neesings a light doth shine, and his eyes
are
like the eyelids of the morning.
19
 Out of his mouth go burning lamps,
and
sparks of fire leap out.
20
 Out of his nostrils goeth smoke, as
out
of a seething pot or caldron.
21
 His breath kindleth coals, and a flame goeth out of his mouth.
22
 In his neck remaineth strength, and sorrow is turned into joy before him.
23
 The flakes of his flesh are joined together: they are firm in themselves; they cannot be moved.
24
 His heart is as firm as a stone; yea, as hard as a piece of the nether
millstone.
25
 When he raiseth up himself, the mighty are afraid: by reason of breakings they purify themselves.
26
 The sword of him that layeth at him cannot hold: the spear, the dart, nor the habergeon.
27
 He esteemeth iron as straw,
and
brass as rotten wood.
28
 The arrow cannot make him flee: slingstones are turned with him into stubble.
29
 Darts are counted as stubble: he laugheth at the shaking of a spear.
30
 Sharp stones
are
under him: he spreadeth sharp pointed things upon the mire.
31
 He maketh the deep to boil like a pot: he maketh the sea like a pot of ointment.
32
 He maketh a path to shine after him;
one
would think the deep
to be
hoary.
33
 Upon earth there is not his like, who is made without fear.
34
 He beholdeth all high
things:
he
is
a king over all the children of pride.
42:
1
 Then Job answered the L
ORD
, and said,
2
 I know that thou canst do every
thing,
and
that
no thought can be withholden from thee.
3
 Who
is
he that hideth counsel without knowledge? therefore have I uttered that I understood not; things too wonderful for me, which I knew not.
4
 Hear, I beseech thee, and I will speak: I will demand of thee, and declare thou unto me.
5
 I have heard of thee by the hearing of the ear: but now mine eye seeth thee.
6
 Wherefore I abhor
myself,
and repent in dust and ashes.
7
 And it was
so,
that after the L
ORD
had spoken these words unto Job, the L
ORD
said to Eliphaz the Temanite, My wrath is kindled against thee, and against thy two friends: for ye have not spoken of me
the thing that is
right, as my servant Job
hath.
8
 Therefore take unto you now seven bullocks and seven rams, and go to my servant Job, and offer up for yourselves a burnt offering; and my servant Job shall pray for you: for him will I accept: lest I deal with you
after your
folly, in that ye have not spoken of me
the thing which is
right, like my servant Job.
9
 So Eliphaz the Temanite and Bildad the Shuhite
and
Zophar the Naamathite went, and did according as the L
ORD
commanded them: the L
ORD
also accepted Job.
10
 And the L
ORD
turned the captivity of Job, when he prayed for his friends: also the L
ORD
gave Job twice as much as he had before.
11
 Then came there unto him all his brethren, and all his sisters, and all they that had been of his acquaintance before, and did eat bread with him in his house: and they bemoaned him, and comforted him over all the evil that the L
ORD
had brought upon him: every man also gave him a piece of money, and every one an earring of gold.
12
 So the L
ORD
blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning: for he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she asses.
13
 He had also seven sons and three daughters.
14
 And he called the name of the first, Jemima; and the name of the second, Kezia; and the name of the third, Keren-happuch.
15
 And in all the land were no women found
so
fair as the daughters of Job: and their father gave them inheritance among their brethren.
16
 After this lived Job an hundred and forty years, and saw his sons, and his sons' sons,
even
four generations.
17
 So Job died,
being
old and full of days.
