When he giveth

Moreover Job continued his discourse, and said,

And it came to pass, when the king sat in his house, and the LORD had given him rest all around from all his enemies;

And it shall come to pass in the day that the LORD shall give you rest from your sorrow, and from your fear, and from the hard bondage in which you were made to serve.

You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on you: because he trusts in you.

And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance forever.

Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world gives, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

What shall we then say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?

And the peace of God, which passes all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

When he hideth

Behold, I go forward, but he is not there; and backward, but I cannot perceive him:

[To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David.] How long will you forget me, O LORD? forever? how long will you hide your face from me?

Hide not your face far from me; put not your servant away in anger: you have been my help; leave me not, neither forsake me, O God of my salvation.

LORD, by your favor you have made my mountain to stand strong: you did hide your face, and I was troubled.

Hear me speedily, O LORD: my spirit fails: hide not your face from me, lest I be like unto them that go down into the pit.

Who then can behold

Behold, he breaks down, and it cannot be built again: he shuts up a man, and there can be no opening.

But he is of one mind, and who can turn him? and what his soul desires, even that he does.

Whether

And it came to pass in the fourth year of king Hezekiah, which was the seventh year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, that Shalmaneser king of Assyria came up against Samaria, and besieged it.

Moreover all the leaders of the priests, and the people, transgressed very much according to all the abominations of the nations; and polluted the house of the LORD which he had hallowed in Jerusalem.

And it shall come to pass, that the nation and kingdom which will not serve the same Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, and that will not put their neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon, that nation will I punish, says the LORD, with the sword, and with the famine, and with the pestilence, until I have consumed them by his hand.
