Behold, happy is the man whom God correcteth: Therefore despise not thou the chastening of the Almighty.

For the arrows of the Almighty are within me, The poison whereof my spirit drinketh up: The terrors of God do set themselves in array against me.

To him that is ready to faint kindness'should be showed from his friend; Even to him that forsaketh the fear of the Almighty.

Doth God pervert justice? Or doth the Almighty pervert righteousness?

If thou wouldest seek diligently unto God, And make thy supplication to the Almighty;

Canst thou by searching find out God? Canst thou find out the Almighty unto perfection?

Surely I would speak to the Almighty, And I desire to reason with God.

Because he hath stretched out his hand against God, And behaveth himself proudly against the Almighty;

What is the Almighty, that we should serve him? And what profit should we have, if we pray unto him?

Let his own eyes see his destruction, And let him drink of the wrath of the Almighty.

Is it any pleasure to the Almighty, that thou art righteous? Or is it gain to him , that thou makest thy ways perfect?

Who said unto God, Depart from us; And, What can the Almighty do for us?

If thou return to the Almighty, thou shalt be built up, If thou put away unrighteousness far from thy tents.

And the Almighty will be thy treasure, And precious silver unto thee.

For then shalt thou delight thyself in the Almighty, And shalt lift up thy face unto God.

For God hath made my heart faint, And the Almighty hath terrified me;

Why are times not laid up by the Almighty? And why do not they that know him see his days?

As God liveth, who hath taken away my right, And the Almighty, who hath vexed my soul:

Will he delight himself in the Almighty, And call upon God at all times?

I will teach you concerning the hand of God; That which is with the Almighty will I not conceal.

This is the portion of a wicked man with God, And the heritage of oppressors, which they receive from the Almighty:

When the Almighty was yet with me, And my children were about me;

For what is the portion from God above, And the heritage from the Almighty on high?

Oh that I had one to hear me! (Lo, here is my signature, let the Almighty answer me); And that I had the indictment which mine adversary hath written!

But there is a spirit in man, And the breath of the Almighty giveth them understanding.

The Spirit of God hath made me, And the breath of the Almighty giveth me life.

Therefore hearken unto me, ye men of understanding: Far be it from God, that he should do wickedness, And from the Almighty, that he should commit iniquity.

Yea, of a surety, God will not do wickedly, Neither will the Almighty pervert justice.

Surely God will not hear an empty cry , Neither will the Almighty regard it.

Touching the Almighty, we cannot find him out He is excellent in power; And in justice and plenteous righteousness he will not afflict.

Shall he that cavilleth contend with the Almighty? He that argueth with God, let him answer it.
