Job 29:7-25

7When I wentH3318 out to the gateH8179 by the city, when I preparedH3559 my seatH4186 on the broadway, 8The youngH5288 menH5288 sawH7200 me, and hidH2244 themselves; and the aged aroseH6965 [and] stoodH5975 up; 9PrincesH8269 refrained from talking, and laid the handH3709 on their mouthH6310; 10The voiceH6963 of the nobles was hushed, and their tongueH3956 cleaved to their palateH2441. 11When the earH241 heardH8085 [me], then it blessed me, and when the eyeH5869 sawH7200 [me], it gave witness to me; 12For I deliveredH4422 the afflictedH6041 that criedH7768, and the fatherlessH3490 who had no helperH5826. 13The blessingH1293 of him that was perishingH6 cameH935 upon me, and I caused the widow's heartH3820 to singH7442 for joyH7442. 14I putH3847 on righteousnessH6664, and it clothedH3847 me; my justiceH4941 was as a mantle and a turbanH6797. 15I wasH1961 eyesH5869 to the blindH5787, and feetH7272 wasH1961 I to the lameH6455; 16I was a fatherH1 to the needyH34, and the causeH7379 which I knewH3045 not I searchedH2713 out; 17And I brokeH7665 the jaws of the unrighteous, and plucked the spoil out of his teethH8127. 18And I saidH559, I shall dieH1478 in my nestH7064, and multiplyH7235 my daysH3117 as the sandH2344; 19My rootH8328 shall be spread out to the watersH4325, and the dewH2919 will lie all night on my branch; 20My gloryH3519 shall be fresh in me, and my bowH7198 be renewedH2498 in my handH3027. 21Unto me they listenedH8085, and waitedH3176, and kept silence for my counselH6098: 22After my wordsH1697 they spoke not again, and my speechH4405 dropped upon them; 23And they waitedH3176 for me as for the rainH4306, and they openedH6473 their mouthH6310 wideH6473 as for the latter rainH4306. 24[If] I laughedH7832 on them, they believedH539 [it] not; and they troubled not the serenity of my countenance. 25I choseH977 their wayH1870, and satH3427 as chiefH7218, and dweltH3427 as a kingH4428 in the army, as oneH834 that comforteth mournersH57.
