Job 27:1-10

Job 27:1-10

[1] Moreover Job  continued  his parable,  and said,  [2] As God  liveth,  who hath taken away  my judgment;  and the Almighty,  who hath vexed  my soul;  [3] All the while  my breath  is in me, and the spirit  of God  is in my nostrils;  [4] My lips  shall not speak  wickedness,  nor my tongue  utter  deceit.  [5] God forbid  that I should justify  you: till I die  I will not remove  mine integrity  from me. [6] My righteousness  I hold  fast, and will not let it go:  my heart  shall not reproach  me so long as I live.  [7] Let mine enemy  be as the wicked,  and he that riseth up  against me as the unrighteous.  [8] For what is the hope  of the hypocrite,  though he hath gained,  when God  taketh away  his soul?  [9] Will God  hear  his cry  when trouble  cometh  [10] Will he delight  himself in the Almighty?  will he always  call  upon God?
