Job 29:1-6

1And Job again took up his 1discourse and said,2“Oh that I were as in months gone by, As in the days when God 2watched over me;3When 3His lamp shone over my head, And 4by His light I walked through darkness;4As I was in 5the prime of my days, When the 67friendship of God was over my tent;5When 8the Almighty was yet with me, And my children were around me;6When my steps were bathed in 9butter, And the 10rock poured out for me streams of oil!
