Lo, these [are] parts of his ways: but how little a portion is heard of him? but the thunder of his power who can understand?
Moreover Job continued his parable, and said,
[As] God liveth, [who] hath taken away my judgment; and the Almighty, [who] hath vexed my soul;
All the while my breath [is] in me, and the spirit of God [is] in my nostrils;
My lips shall not speak wickedness, nor my tongue utter deceit.
God forbid that I should justify you: till I die I will not remove mine integrity from me.
My righteousness I hold fast, and will not let it go: my heart shall not reproach [me] so long as I live.
Let mine enemy be as the wicked, and he that riseth up against me as the unrighteous.
For what [is] the hope of the hypocrite, though he hath gained, when God taketh away his soul?
Will God hear his cry when trouble cometh upon him?
