42:1 Then Job answered Jehovah, and said,

42:2 I know that thou canst do all things, And that no purpose of thine can be restrained.

42:3 Who is this that hideth counsel without knowledge? Therefore have I uttered that which I understood not, Things too wonderful for me, which I knew not.

42:4 Hear, I beseech thee, and I will speak; I will demand of thee, and declare thou unto me.

42:5 I had heard of thee by the hearing of the ear; But now mine eye seeth thee:

42:6 Wherefore I abhor myself, And repent in dust and ashes.

42:7 And it was so, that, after Jehovah had spoken these words unto Job, Jehovah said to Eliphaz the Temanite, My wrath is kindled against thee, and against thy two friends; for ye have not spoken of me the thing that is right, as my servant Job hath.

42:8 Now therefore, take unto you seven bullocks and seven rams, and go to my servant Job, and offer up for yourselves a burnt-offering; and my servant Job shall pray for you; for him will I accept, that I deal not with you after your folly; for ye have not spoken of me the thing that is right, as my servant Job hath.

42:9 So Eliphaz the Temanite and Bildad the Shuhite and Zophar the Naamathite went, and did according as Jehovah commanded them: and Jehovah accepted Job.

42:10 And Jehovah turned the captivity of Job, when he prayed for his friends: and Jehovah gave Job twice as much as he had before.

42:11 Then came there unto him all his brethren, and all his sisters, and all they that had been of his acquaintance before, and did eat bread with him in his house: and they bemoaned him, and comforted him concerning all the evil that Jehovah had brought upon him: every man also gave him a piece of money, and every one a ring of gold.

42:12 So Jehovah blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning: And he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she-asses.

42:13 He had also seven sons and three daughters.

42:14 And he called the name of the first, Jemimah: and the name of the second, Keziah; and the name of the third, Keren-happuch.

42:15 And in all the land were no women found so fair as the daughters of Job: and their father gave them inheritance among their brethren.

42:16 And after this Job lived a hundred and forty years, and saw his sons, and his sons’ sons, even four generations.

42:17 So Job died, being old and full of days.

1:1 The words of the Preacher, the son of David, king in Jerusalem.

1:2 Vanity of vanities, saith the Preacher; vanity of vanities, all is vanity.

1:3 What profit hath man of all his labor wherein he laboreth under the sun?

1:4 One generation goeth, and another generation cometh; but the earth abideth for ever.

1:5 The sun also ariseth, and the sun goeth down, and hasteth to its place where it ariseth.

1:6 The wind goeth toward the south, and turneth about unto the north; it turneth about continually in its course, and the wind returneth again to its circuits.

1:7 All the rivers run into the sea, yet the sea is not full; unto the place whither the rivers go, thither they go again.

1:8 All things are full of weariness; man cannot utter it: the eye is not satisfied with seeing, nor the ear filled with hearing.

1:9 That which hath been is that which shall be; and that which hath been done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun.

1:10 Is there a thing whereof it may be said, See, this is new? it hath been long ago, in the ages which were before us.

1:11 There is no remembrance of the former generations; neither shall there be any remembrance of the latter generations that are to come, among those that shall come after.

1:12 I the Preacher was king over Israel in Jerusalem.

1:13 And I applied my heart to seek and to search out by wisdom concerning all that is done under heaven: it is a sore travail that God hath given to the sons of men to be exercised therewith.

1:14 I have seen all the works that are done under the sun; and, behold, all is vanity and a striving after wind.

1:15 That which is crooked cannot be made straight; and that which is wanting cannot be numbered.

1:16 I communed with mine own heart, saying, Lo, I have gotten me great wisdom above all that were before me in Jerusalem; yea, my heart hath had great experience of wisdom and knowledge.

1:17 And I applied my heart to know wisdom, and to know madness and folly: I perceived that this also was a striving after wind.

1:18 For in much wisdom is much grief; and he that increaseth knowledge increaseth sorrow.

67:1 For the Chief Musician; on stringed instruments. A Psalm, a Song. God be merciful unto us, and bless us, And cause his face to shine upon us; [Selah

67:2 That thy way may be known upon earth, Thy salvation among all nations.

67:3 Let the peoples praise thee, O God; Let all the peoples praise thee.

67:4 Oh let the nations be glad and sing for joy; For thou wilt judge the peoples with equity, And govern the nations upon earth. [Selah

67:5 Let the peoples praise thee, O God; Let all the peoples praise thee.

67:6 The earth hath yielded its increase: God, even our own God, will bless us.

67:7 God will bless us; And all the ends of the earth shall fear him.

16:1 Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I gave order to the churches of Galatia, so also do ye.

16:2 Upon the first day of the week let each one of you lay by him in store, as he may prosper, that no collections be made when I come.

16:3 And when I arrive, whomsoever ye shall approve, them will I send with letters to carry your bounty unto Jerusalem:

16:4 and if it be meet for me to go also, they shall go with me.
