Job 29:2-6

2Oh thatH5414 I were as in monthsH3391 pastH6924, as in the daysH3117 when GodH433 preservedH8104 me;

3When his candleH5216 shinedH1984 upon my headH7218, and when by his lightH216 I walkedH3212 through darknessH2822;1

4As I was in the daysH3117 of my youthH2779, when the friendship and counselH5475 of GodH433 was upon my tabernacleH168;

5When the AlmightyH7706 was yet with me, when my childrenH5288 were aboutH5439 me;

6When I washedH7364 my stepsH1978 with butterH2529, and the rockH6697 poured me outH6694 riversH6388 of oilH8081;2
