271And Job again took up his parable, and said,+2As God liveth, who hath taken away my right, And the Almighty, who hath vexed my soul+3( For my life is yet whole in me, And the spirit of God is in my nostrils);+4Surely my lips shall not speak unrighteousness, Neither shall my tongue utter deceit.+5Far be it from me that I should justify you: Till I die I will not put away mine integrity from me.+6My righteousness I hold fast, and will not let it go: My heart shall not reproach [me] so long as I live.+
The Wicked Man’s Portion
7Let mine enemy be as the wicked, And let him that riseth up against me be as the unrighteous.+8For what is the hope of the godless, though he get him gain, When God taketh away his soul?+9Will God hear his cry, When trouble cometh upon him?+10Will he delight himself in the Almighty, And call upon God at all times?+11I will teach you concerning the hand of God; That which is with the Almighty will I not conceal.+12Behold, all ye yourselves have seen it; Why then are ye become altogether vain?+13This is the portion of a wicked man with God, And the heritage of oppressors, which they receive from the Almighty:+14If his children be multiplied, it is for the sword; And his offspring shall not be satisfied with bread.+15Those that remain of him shall be buried in death, And his widows shall make no lamentation.+16Though he heap up silver as the dust, And prepare raiment as the clay;+17He may prepare it, but the just shall put it on, And the innocent shall divide the silver.+18He buildeth his house as the moth, And as a booth which the keeper maketh.+19He lieth down rich, but he shall not be gathered [to his fathers]; He openeth his eyes, and he is not.+20Terrors overtake him like waters; A tempest stealeth him away in the night.+21The east wind carrieth him away, and he departeth; And it sweepeth him out of his place.+22For [God] shall hurl at him, and not spare: He would fain flee out of his hand.+23Men shall clap their hands at him, And shall hiss him out of his place.+
