And it was so, when the days of the feasting were gone about, that Job sent and hallowed them; and he rose up early in the morning, and offered up burnt-offerings according to the number of them all; for Job said, It may be that my children have sinned, and cursed God in their hearts. Thus did Job continually.

Hast not thou made a hedge about him, and about his house, and about all that he hath on every side? Thou hast blessed the work of his hands, and his substance is spread abroad in the land.

They wind about in the paths of their course, they go off into the waste and perish.

His roots are entwined about the stoneheap; he seeth the place of stones.

Thy hands have bound me together and made me as one, round about; yet dost thou swallow me up!

And thou shalt have confidence, because there shall be hope; and having searched about thee, thou shalt take rest in safety.

And thou puttest my feet in the stocks, and markest all my paths; thou settest a bound about the soles of my feet; --

His arrows encompass me round about, he cleaveth my reins asunder and doth not spare; he poureth out my gall upon the ground.

His troops have come together and cast up their way against me, and have encamped round about my tent.

Therefore snares are round about thee, and sudden fear troubleth thee;

When the Almighty was yet with me, my young men round about me;

By their great force they have become my raiment; they bind me about as the collar of my coat.

I go about blackened, but not by the sun; I stand up, I cry in the congregation.

Dost thou know about the balancings of the clouds, the wondrous works of him that is perfect in knowledge?

Who can open the doors of his face? Round about his teeth is terror.
