Job 8:5

If thou wouldest seek unto God betimes, and make thy supplication to the Almighty;

If thou prepare thine heart, and stretch out thine hands toward him;

And when he was in affliction, he besought the LORD his God, and humbled himself greatly before the God of his fathers,

I would seek unto God, and unto God would I commit my cause:

Acquaint now thyself with him, and be at peace: thereby good shall come unto thee.

Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near:

Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:

Wherefore (as the Holy Ghost saith, To day if ye will hear his voice,

Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
