Scriptures

King James Version (KJV)

Job 29
⁸ The young men saw me, and hid themselves: and the aged arose, and stood up.
⁹ The princes refrained talking, and laid their hand on their mouth.
¹⁰ The nobles held their peace, and their tongue cleaved to the roof of their mouth.
¹¹ When the ear heard me, then it blessed me; and when the eye saw me, it gave witness to me:
¹² Because I delivered the poor that cried, and the fatherless, and him that had none to help him.
¹³ The blessing of him that was ready to perish came upon me: and I caused the widow's heart to sing for joy.
¹⁴ I put on righteousness, and it clothed me: my judgment was as a robe and a diadem.
¹⁵ I was eyes to the blind, and feet was I to the lame.
¹⁶ I was a father to the poor: and the cause which I knew not I searched out.
¹⁷ And I brake the jaws of the wicked, and plucked the spoil out of his teeth.
¹⁸ Then I said, I shall die in my nest, and I shall multiply my days as the sand.
