Who provides for the raven his prey, when his young ones cry to God, and wander for lack of food?

"Who has set the wild donkey free? Or who has loosened the bonds of the swift donkey,

Can you hold the wild ox in the furrow with his harness? Or will he till the valleys after you?

For she leaves her eggs on the earth, warms them in the dust,

She deals harshly with her young ones, as if they were not hers. Though her labor is in vain, she is without fear,

He mocks at fear, and is not dismayed, neither does he turn back from the sword.

Surely the mountains produce food for him, where all the animals of the field play.

Will he make a covenant with you, that you should take him for a servant forever?

Will you play with him as with a bird? Or will you bind him for your girls?

Will traders barter for him? Will they part him among the merchants?

Out of his mouth go burning torches. Sparks of fire leap forth.

Out of his nostrils a smoke goes, as of a boiling pot over a fire of reeds.

On earth there is not his equal, that is made without fear.

You asked, 'Who is this who hides counsel without knowledge?' therefore I have uttered that which I did not understand, things too wonderful for me, which I did not know.

It was so, that after the LORD had spoken these words to Job, the LORD said to Eliphaz the Temanite, "My wrath is kindled against you, and against your two friends; for you have not spoken of me the thing that is right, as my servant Job has.

Now therefore, take to yourselves seven bulls 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 I will accept him, that I not deal with you according to your folly. For you have not spoken of me the thing that is right, as my servant Job has."

The LORD turned the captivity of Job, when he prayed for his friends. The LORD gave Job twice as much as he had before.

After this Job lived one hundred forty years, and saw his sons, and his sons' sons, to four generations.

For the LORD knows the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked shall perish.

Ask of me, and I will give the nations for your inheritance, the uttermost parts of the earth for your possession.

Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling.

Kiss the son, lest he be angry, and you perish in the way, for his wrath will soon be kindled. Blessed are all those who take refuge in him.

Many there are who say of my soul, "There is no help for him in God." Selah.

I laid myself down and slept. I awakened; for the LORD sustains me.

Arise, LORD. Save me, my God. For you have struck all of my enemies on the cheek bone. You have broken the teeth of the wicked.

But know that the LORD has set apart for himself him who is godly: The LORD will hear when I call to him.

In peace I will both lay myself down and sleep, for you, the LORD alone, make me live in safety.

Listen to the voice of my cry, my King and my God; for to you do I pray.

For you are not a God who has pleasure in wickedness. Evil can't live with you.

But as for me, in the abundance of your loving kindness I will come into your house. I will bow toward your holy temple in reverence of you.

For there is no faithfulness in their mouth. Their heart is destruction. Their throat is an open tomb; with their tongue they are deceitful.

Hold them guilty, God. Let them fall by their own counsels; Thrust them out in the multitude of their transgressions, for they have rebelled against you.

But let all those who take refuge in you rejoice, Let them always shout for joy, because you defend them. Let them also who love your name be joyful in you.

For you will bless the righteous. LORD, you will surround him with favor as with a shield.

Have mercy on me, LORD, for I am faint. LORD, heal me, for my bones are troubled.

Return, LORD. Deliver my soul, and save me for your loving kindness' sake.

For in death there is no memory of you. In Sheol, who shall give you thanks?

Depart from me, all you workers of iniquity, for the LORD has heard the voice of my weeping.

Arise, LORD, in your anger. Lift up yourself against the rage of my adversaries. Awake for me. You have commanded judgment.

He has also prepared for himself the instruments of death. He makes ready his flaming arrows.

what is man, that you think of him? What is the son of man, that you care for him?

For you have made him a little lower than the angels, and crowned him with glory and honor.

For you have maintained my just cause. You sit on the throne judging righteously.

But the LORD reigns forever. He has prepared his throne for judgment.

The LORD will also be a refuge for the oppressed, a refuge in times of trouble.

Those who know your name will put their trust in you, for you, LORD, have not forsaken those who seek you.

For he who avenges blood remembers them. He doesn't forget the cry of the afflicted.

For the needy shall not always be forgotten, nor the hope of the poor perish forever.

Put them in fear, LORD. Let the nations know that they are only men. Selah.

Why do you stand far off, LORD? Why do you hide yourself in times of trouble?

For the wicked boasts of his heart's cravings. He blesses the greedy, and condemns the LORD.

The wicked, in the pride of his face, has no room in his thoughts for God.

His ways are prosperous at all times. Your judgments are far from his sight. As for all his adversaries, he sneers at them.

He says in his heart, "I shall not be shaken. For generations I shall have no trouble."

Break the arm of the wicked. As for the evil man, seek out his wickedness until you find none.

For, behold, the wicked bend their bows. They set their arrows on the strings, that they may shoot in darkness at the upright in heart.

On the wicked he will rain blazing coals; fire, sulfur, and scorching wind shall be the portion of their cup.

For the LORD is righteous. He loves righteousness. The upright shall see his face.

Help, LORD; for the godly man ceases. For the faithful fail from among the children of men.

There they were in great fear, for God is in the generation of the righteous.

In whose eyes a vile man is despised, but who honors those who fear the LORD; he who keeps an oath even when it hurts, and doesn't change;

he who doesn't lend out his money for usury, nor take a bribe against the innocent. He who does these things shall never be shaken.

Preserve me, God, for in you do I take refuge.

As for the holy ones who are in the land, they are the excellent ones in whom is all my delight.

For you will not leave my soul in Sheol, neither will you allow your holy one to see corruption.

As for the works of men, by the word of your lips, I have kept myself from the ways of the violent.

I have called on you, for you will answer me, God. Turn your ear to me. Hear my speech.

from men by your hand, LORD, from men of the world, whose portion is in this life. You fill the belly of your cherished ones. Your sons have plenty, and they store up wealth for their children.

As for me, I shall see your face in righteousness. I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with seeing your form.

Smoke went out of his nostrils. Consuming fire came out of his mouth. Coals were kindled by it.

At the brightness before him his thick clouds passed, hailstones and coals of fire.

The LORD also thundered in the sky. The Most High uttered his voice: hailstones and coals of fire.

He delivered me from my strong enemy, from those who hated me; for they were too mighty for me.

For I have kept the ways of the LORD, and have not wickedly departed from my God.

For all his ordinances were before me. I did not put away his statutes from me.

For you will save the afflicted people, but the haughty eyes you will bring down.

For you will light my lamp, LORD. My God will light up my darkness.

For by you, I advance through a troop. By my God, I leap over a wall.

As for God, his way is perfect. The word of the LORD is tried. He is a shield to all those who take refuge in him.

For who is God, except the LORD? Who is a rock, besides our God,

For you have girded me with strength to the battle. You have subdued under me those who rose up against me.

even the God who executes vengeance for me, and subdues peoples under me.

Their voice has gone out through all the earth, their words to the end of the world. In them he has set a tent for the sun,

The fear of the LORD is clean, enduring forever. The LORD's ordinances are true, and righteous altogether.

For you meet him with the blessings of goodness. You set a crown of fine gold on his head.

For you make him most blessed forever. You make him glad with joy in your presence.

For the king trusts in the LORD. Through the loving kindness of the Most High, he shall not be moved.

You will make them as a fiery furnace in the time of your anger. The LORD will swallow them up in his wrath. The fire shall devour them.

For they intended evil against you. They plotted evil against you which cannot succeed.

For you will make them turn their back, when you aim drawn bows at their face.

My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? Why are you so far from helping me, and from the words of my groaning?

Do not be far from me, for trouble is near. For there is none to help.

For dogs have surrounded me. A company of evildoers have enclosed me. They have pierced my hands and feet.

They divide my garments among them. They cast lots for my clothing.

But do not be far off, LORD. You are my help: hurry to help me.

You who fear the LORD, praise him. All you descendants of Jacob, glorify him. Stand in awe of him, all you descendants of Israel.

For he has not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted, Neither has he hidden his face from him; but when he cried to him, he heard.

Of you comes my praise in the great assembly. I will pay my vows before those who fear him.

For the kingdom is the LORD's. He is the ruler over the nations.

They shall come and shall declare his righteousness to a people that shall be born, for he has done it.
