Context of Job 22:28
26Surely then you will delight in the Almighty and lift up your face to God. 27You will pray to Him, and He will hear you, and you will fulfill your vows. Your decisions will be carried out, and light will shine on your ways. 29When men are brought low and you say, ‘Lift them up!’ then He will save the lowly. 30He will deliver even one who is not innocent, rescuing him through the cleanness of your hands.”
