Job 27

1 Job protesteth his sincerety. 8 The hypocrite is without hope. 11 The blessings which the wicked have are turned into curses.

 27:1 ¶ Moreover x3254 Job 347 continued 5375 y3254 z8686 z8800 his parable, 4912 and said, 559 z8799

 27:2 [As] God 410 liveth, 2416 [who] hath taken away 5493 z8689 my judgment; 4941 and the Almighty, 7706 [who] hath vexed 4843 z8689 my soul; 5315

 27:3 All x3605 the while 5750 my breath 5397 [is] in me, and the spirit 7307 of God 433 [is] in my nostrils; 639

 27:4 My lips 8193 shall not x518 speak 1696 z8762 wickedness, 5766 nor x518 my tongue 3956 utter 1897 z8799 deceit. 7423

 27:5 God forbid 2486 that x518 I should justify 6663 z8686 you: till x5704 I die 1478 z8799 I will not x3808 remove 5493 z8686 mine integrity 8538 from x4480 me.

 27:6 My righteousness 6666 I hold y2388 z8689 fast, x2388 and will not x3808 let it go: 7503 z8686 my heart 3824 shall not x3808 reproach 2778 z8799 [me] so long as I live. 3117 x4480

 27:7 Let mine enemy 341 z8802 be x1961 as the wicked, 7563 and he that riseth up y6965 z8693 against x6965 me as the unrighteous. 5767

 27:8 For x3588 what x4100 [is] the hope 8615 of the hypocrite, 2611 though x3588 he hath gained, 1214 z8799 when x3588 God 433 taketh away 7953 z8799 his soul? 5315

 27:9 Will God 410 hear 8085 z8799 his cry 6818 when x3588 trouble 6869 cometh 935 z8799 upon x5921 him?

 27:10 Will he delight y6026 z8691 himself x6026 in x5921 the Almighty? 7706 will he always 6256 x3605 call y7121 z8799 upon x7121 God? 433

 27:11 I will teach 3384 z8686 you by the hand 3027 of God: 410 [that] which x834 [is] with x5973 the Almighty 7706 will I not x3808 conceal. 3582 z8762

 27:12 Behold, x2005 all x3605 ye yourselves x859 have seen 2372 z8804 [it]; why x4100 then are ye thus x2088 altogether 1892 vain? 1891 z8799

 27:13 This x2088 [is] the portion 2506 of a wicked 7563 man 120 with x5973 God, 410 and the heritage 5159 of oppressors, 6184 [which] they shall receive 3947 z8799 of the Almighty. 7706 x4480

 27:14 If x518 his children 1121 be multiplied, 7235 z8799 [it is] for 3926 the sword: 2719 and his offspring 6631 shall not x3808 be satisfied 7646 z8799 with bread. 3899

 27:15 Those that remain 8300 of him shall be buried 6912 z8735 in death: 4194 and his widows 490 shall not x3808 weep. 1058 z8799

 27:16 Though x518 he heap up 6651 z8799 silver 3701 as the dust, 6083 and prepare 3559 z8686 raiment 4403 as the clay; 2563

 27:17 He may prepare 3559 z8686 [it], but the just 6662 shall put [it] on, 3847 z8799 and the innocent 5355 shall divide 2505 z8799 the silver. 3701

 27:18 He buildeth 1129 z8804 his house 1004 as a moth, 6211 and as a booth 5521 [that] the keeper 5341 z8802 maketh. 6213 z8804

 27:19 The rich y6223 man x6223 shall lie down, 7901 z8799 but he shall not x3808 be gathered: 622 z8735 he openeth 6491 z8804 his eyes, 5869 and he [is] not. x369

 27:20 Terrors 1091 take hold 5381 z8686 on him as waters, 4325 a tempest 5492 stealeth him away 1589 z8804 in the night. 3915

 27:21 The east y6921 wind x6921 carrieth him away, 5375 z8799 and he departeth: y3212 z8799 x1980 and as a storm hurleth 8175 z8762 him out of his place. 4725 x4480

 27:22 For [God] shall cast 7993 z8686 upon x5921 him, and not x3808 spare: 2550 z8799 he would fain y1272 z8800 flee 1272 z8799 out of his hand. 3027 x4480

 27:23 [Men] shall clap 5606 z8799 their hands 3709 at x5921 him, and shall hiss 8319 z8799 x5921 him out of his place. 4725 x4480
