Verse Summary |
1. | (1-3) | There was a man in the land of Uz whose name was Job |
| (4-5) | Job rose up early and offered burnt offerings |
| (6-12) | The sons of God came to present themselves, Satan among them |
| (13-19) | Job's livestock taken, sons and daughters killed |
| (20-22) | The Lord gave and the Lord hath taken away |
2. | (1-6) | The Lord said to Satan, from whence comest thou |
| (7) | Satan smote Job with sore boils |
| (8) | He took him a potsherd to scrape himself, sat in the ashes |
| (9-10) | Dost thou still retain thine integrity, curse God and die |
| (11-13) | Job's three friends come every one from his own place |
3. | (1-10) | After this Job opened his mouth and cursed his day |
| (11-12) | Why died I not from the womb |
| (13-19) | For now should I have lain still and been quiet |
| (20-24) | Wherefore is light given to him that is in misery |
| (25) | For the thing which I greatly feared is come upon me |
| (26) | I was not in safety, yet trouble came |
4. | (1-6) | Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered and said |
| (7-9) | Who ever perished being innocent |
| (10-11) | The old lion perisheth for lack of prey |
| (12-16) | Then a spirit passed before my face |
| (17-21) | Shall mortal man be more just than God |
5. | (1) | To which of the saints wilt thou turn |
| (2-5) | They are crushed in the gate |
| (6-7) | Neither doth trouble spring out of the ground |
| (8) | Unto God would I commit my cause |
| (9-16) | He disappointeth the devices of the crafty |
| (17-26) | Behold happy is the man whom God correcteth |
| (27) | Hear it, and know thou it for thy good |
6. | (1-3) | Job, Oh that my grief were throughly weighed |
| (4) | For the arrows of the Almighty are within me |
| (5-7) | Things my soul refused to touch, my sorrowful meat |
| (8-10) | Even that it would please God to destroy me |
| (11-13) | What is my strength, that I should hope |
| (14) | To him that is afflicted pity should be shewed from his friend |
| (15-30) | My brethren have dealt deceitfully as a brook |
7. | (1-10) | Is there not an appointed time to man upon earth |
| (11) | I will complain in the bitterness of my soul |
| (12-16) | Then thou scarest me with dreams, terrifiest me through visions |
| (17-21) | And why dost thou not pardon my transgression |
8. | (1-2) | Bildad, How long wilt thou speak these things |
| (3-7) | If thou wert pure and upright, surely now he would awake for thee |
| (8-10) | For enquire, I pray thee, of the former age |
| (11-19) | So are the paths of all that forget God, hypocrites hope shall perish |
| (20-22) | Behold, God will not cast away a perfect man |
9. | (1-4) | Job answered, how should man be just with God |
| (5-13) | If God will not withdraw his anger |
| (14-21) | I would make supplication to my judge |
| (22-24) | He destroyeth the perfect and the wicked |
| (25-28) | I am afraid of all my sorrows, thou wilt not hold me innocent |
| (29-35) | For he is not a man, as I am, that I should answer him |
10. | (1-17) | Job, I will speak in the bitterness of my soul |
| (18-19) | I should have been carried from the womb to the grave |
| (20-22) | Let me alone, that I may take comfort a little |
11. | (1-4) | Zophar, should a man full of talk be justified |
| (5-6) | Oh that God would speak and open his lips against thee |
| (7-12) | Canst thou by searching find out God |
| (13-19) | Let not wickedness dwell in thy tabernacles |
| (20) | But the eyes of the wicked shall fail, and they shall not escape |
12. | (1-6) | Job, ye are the people and wisdom shall die with you |
| (7-10) | Who knoweth not, the hand of the Lord hath wrought this |
| (11-15) | Behold, he withholdeth the waters, and they dry up |
| (16-25) | He increaseth the nations, and destroyeth them |
13. | (1-12) | Surely I would speak to the Almighty, I desire to reason with God |
| (13-19) | Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him |
| (20-28) | Only do not two things unto me, then will I not hide myself |
14. | (1-2) | Man that is born of woman is of few days and full of trouble |
| (3-6) | Who can bring a clean thing out of an unclean |
| (7-15) | Man giveth up the ghost, and where is he |
| (16-22) | My transgression is sealed up in a bag |
15. | (1-6) | Eliphaz, Should a wise man utter vain knowledge |
| (7-10) | Art thou the first man that was born |
| (11-13) | Why doth thine heart carry thee away |
| (14-16) | How much more abominable and filthy is man |
| (17-19) | I will shew thee, which wise men have told |
| (20-35) | Let not him that is deceived trust in vanity |
16. | (1-6) | Job, miserable comforters are ye all |
| (7-14) | God hath delivered me to the ungodly, hands of the wicked |
| (15-22) | O that one might plead for a man with God |
17. | (1-10) | I cannot find one wise man among you |
| (11-16) | And where is now my hope |
18. | (1-4) | Bildad, How long will it be ere ye make an end of words |
| (5-21) | Surely such are the dwellings of the wicked |
19. | (1-7) | Job, How long will ye vex my soul, break me in pieces with words |
| (8-19) | They whom I loved are turned against me |
| (20-24) | I am escaped with the skin of my teeth |
| (25-29) | For I know that my redeemer liveth |
20. | (1-3) | Zophar, Therefore do my thoughts cause me to answer |
| (4-29) | This is the portion of a wicked man from God |
21. | (1-6) | Job, when I remember I am afraid |
| (7-13) | Wherefore do the wicked live, become old, mighty in power |
| (14-16) | Therefore they say unto God, Depart from us |
| (17-26) | Shall any teach God knowledge |
| (27-34) | How then comfort ye me in vain |
22. | (1-4) | Eliphaz, Can a man be profitable unto God |
| (5-11) | Is not thy wickedness great, iniquities infinite |
| (12-20) | Is not God in the height of heaven |
| (21-30) | If thou return to the Almighty, thou shalt be built up |
23. | (1-7) | Job, Will he plead against me with his great power |
| (8-12) | When he hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold |
| (13-17) | For he performeth the thing that is appointed for me |
24. | (1-25) | And if it be not so now, who will make me a liar |
25. | (1-6) | Bildad, How then can man be justified with God |
26. | (1-4) | Job, How hast thou helped him that is without power |
| (5-14) | He stretcheth out the north over the empty place |
27. | (1-6) | My lips shall not speak wickedness nor my tongue utter deceit |
| (7-12) | That which is with the Almighty will I not conceal |
| (13-23) | This is the portion of a wicked man with God |
28. | (1-11) | The thing that is hid bringeth he forth to light |
| (12-22) | where shall wisdom be found, where is the place of understanding |
| (23-28) | Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom |
29. | (1-25) | Oh that I were as in months past, when God preserved me |
30. | (1-31) | But now they that are younger than I have me in derision |
31. | (1-40) | Let me be weighed in an even balance |
32. | (1-3) | Then was kindled the wrath of Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite |
| (4-14) | I am young, and ye are very old, durst not shew you mine opinion |
| (15-22) | Let me not, I pray you, accept any man's person |
33. | (1-12) | I will answer thee, that God is greater than man |
| (13-22) | For God speaketh once, yet man perceiveth it not |
| (23-30) | For he will render unto man his righteousness |
| (31-33) | Hold thy peace, and I shall teach thee wisdom |
34. | (1-4) | Elihu, Hear my words, O ye wise men |
| (5-9) | What man is like Job, drinketh up scorning like water |
| (10-15) | Neither will the Almighty pervert judgment |
| (16-20) | If now thou hast understanding, hear this |
| (21-30) | For he will not lay upon man more than right |
| (31-33) | If I have done iniquity, I will do no more |
| (34-37) | My desire is that Job may be tried unto the end |
35. | (1-4) | Elihu, What profit shall I have, if I be cleansed from my sin |
| (5-8) | If thou be righteous, what givest thou him |
| (9-13) | Surely God will not hear vanity |
| (14-16) | Therefore doth Job open his mouth in vain |
36. | (1-4) | Elihu, I have yet to speak on God's behalf |
| (5-16) | Behold, God is mighty, and despiseth not any |
| (17-21) | Beware lest he take thee away with his stroke |
| (22-33) | Behold, God is great, and we know him not |
37. | (1-13) | Elihu, Hear attentively the noise of his voice |
| (14-19) | Stand still, and consider the wondrous works of God |
| (20-24) | Touching the Almighty, we cannot find him out |
38. | (1-3) | Then the Lord answered Job out of the whirlwind |
| (4-11) | Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth |
| (12-18) | Hast thou commanded the morning since thy days |
| (19-21) | Where is the way where light dwelleth |
| (22-30) | Hast thou entered into the treasures of the snow |
| (31-33) | Knowest thou the ordinances of heaven |
| (34-37) | Who can number the clouds in wisdom |
| (38-41) | Wilt thou hunt the prey for the lion |
39. | (1-4) | Knowest thou the time when the wild goats of the rock bring forth |
| (5-8) | Who hath sent out the wild ass free |
| (9-12) | Canst thou bind the unicorn with his band in the furrow |
| (13-18) | Gavest thou the goodly wings unto the peacocks |
| (19-25) | Hast thou given the horse strength |
| (26) | Doth the hawk fly by thy wisdom |
| (27-30) | Doth the eagle mount up at thy command |
40. | (1-9) | Shall he that contendeth with the Almighty instruct him |
| (10-14) | Deck thyself now with majesty and excellency |
| (15-24) | Behold now behemoth, which I made with thee |
41. | (1-34) | Canst thou draw out leviathan with an hook |
42. | (1-6) | Job, I know that thou canst do every thing |
| (7-8) | God, my servant Job shall pray for you: for him will I accept |
| (9) | Eliphaz, Bildad and Zophar did as commanded |
| (10-17) | So the Lord blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning |
