And of cattle he had seven thousand sheep and goats, and three thousand camels, and a thousand oxen, and five hundred she-asses, and a very great number of servants. And the man was greater than any of the sons of the east.

When a great wind came rushing from the waste land against the four sides of the house, and it came down on the young men, and they are dead; and I was the only one who got away safe to give you the news.

And they took their seats on the earth by his side for seven days and seven nights: but no one said a word to him, for they saw that his pain was very great.

With kings and the wise ones of the earth, who put up great houses for themselves;

The small and the great are there, and the servant is free from his master.

Who are glad with great joy, and full of delight when they come to their last resting-place;

If their tent-cord is pulled up, do they not come to an end, and without wisdom?

Who does great things outside our knowledge, wonders without number:

You will be certain that your seed will be great, and your offspring like the plants of the earth.

What is man, that you have made him great, and that your attention is fixed on him,

And though your start was small, your end will be very great.

He is wise in heart and great in strength: who ever made his face hard against him, and any good came of it?

Who does great things not to be searched out; yes, wonders without number.

The twisted cord is put secretly in the earth to take him, and the cord is placed in his way.

If you make yourselves great against me, using my punishment as an argument against me,

Even when his wealth is great, he is full of care, for the hand of everyone who is in trouble is turned against him.

Is not your evil-doing great? and there is no end to your sins.

Would he make use of his great power to overcome me? No, but he would give attention to me.

Though he may get silver together like dust, and make ready great stores of clothing;

He makes a deep mine far away from those living in the light of day; when they go about on the earth, they have no knowledge of those who are under them, who are hanging far from men, twisting from side to side on a cord.

The great beasts have not gone over it, and the cruel lion has not taken that way.

It may not be valued with the gold of Ophir, with the onyx of great price, or the sapphire.

By me the great teeth of the evil-doer were broken, and I made him give up what he had violently taken away.

For he has made loose the cord of my bow, and put me to shame; he has sent down my flag to the earth before me.

With great force he takes a grip of my clothing, pulling me by the neck of my coat.

If I was glad because my wealth was great, and because my hand had got together a great store;

For fear of the great body of people, or for fear that families might make sport of me, so that I kept quiet, and did not go out of my door;

If you have done wrong, is he any the worse for it? and if your sins are great in number, what is it to him?

Truly, God is great, greater than all our knowledge; the number of his years may not be searched out.

He does wonders, more than may be searched out; great things of which we have no knowledge;

There is no searching out of the Ruler of all: his strength and his judging are great; he is full of righteousness, doing no wrong.

No doubt you have knowledge of it, for then you had come to birth, and the number of your days is great.

Will you put your faith in him, because his strength is great? will you give the fruit of your work into his care?

See now the Great Beast, whom I made, even as I made you; he takes grass for food, like the ox.

Will you put a cord into his nose, or take him away with a cord round his tongue?
