CHAP. XXVII.
1 Iob protesteth his sincerity. 8 The Hypocrite is without hope. 11 The blessings, which the wicked haue, are turned into curses:
1Moreouer Iob continued his parable, and sayd,1
2As God liueth, who hath taken away my iudgment, and the Almighty, who hath vexed my soule;2
3All the while my breath is in mee, and the spirit of God is in my nostrils;3
4My lips shall not speake wickednesse, nor my tongue vtter deceit.
5God forbid that I should iustifie you: till I die, I will not remoue my integritie from me.
6My righteousnesse I hold fast, and will not let it goe: my heart shall not reproach me so long as I liue.6
7Let mine enemie be as the wicked, and he that riseth vp against me, as the vnrighteous.
8For what is the hope of the hypocrite, though he hath gained, when God taketh away his soule?8
9Will God heare his cry, when trouble commeth vpon him?9
10Will he delight himselfe in the Almightie? will hee alwayes call vpon God?
11I will teach you by the hand of God: that which is with the Almightie, will I not conceale.11
12Behold, all ye your selues haue seene it, why then are yee thus altogether vaine?
15Those that remaine of him shall bee buried in death: and his widowes shall not weepe.15
16Though he heape vp siluer as the dust, and prepare rayment as the clay:
17He may prepare it, but the iust shall put it on, and the innocent shall diuide the siluer.
18He buildeth his house as a moth, and as a booth that the keeper maketh.
19The rich man shall lie downe, but he shall not be gathered: he openeth his eyes, and he is not:
20Terrours take hold on him as waters, a tempest stealeth him away in the night.20
21The East winde carieth him away, and he departeth: and as a storme hurleth him out of his place.
22For God shall cast vpon him, and not spare: hee would faine flee out of his hand.22
23Men shall clap their handes at him, and shall hisse him out of his place.
