Job 29:2-6

2“Oh that I were as in months gone by, As in the days when God 1watched over me;3When 2His lamp shone over my head, And 3by His light I walked through darkness;4As I was in 4the prime of my days, When the 5 6friendship of God was over my tent;5When 7the Almighty was yet with me, And my children were around me;6When my steps were bathed in 8butter, And the 9rock poured out for me streams of oil!
