Wherefore shall light be given to him toiling, and life to the bitter of soul?

At desolation and at hunger thou shalt laugh, and from the beasts of the earth thou shalt not fear.

Remember that my life is wind: mine eyes shall not turn back to see good

I melted away; I shall not live forever: desist from me, for my days are vanity.

I am blameless, I shall not know my soul: I shall despise my life.

My soul was weary in my life; I shall leave upon me my complaint; I shall speak in the bitterness of my soul

Thou didst with me life and mercy, and thy reviewing watched my spirit

And life shall rise above the noonday: thou shalt shine forth, thou shalt be as the morning

Wilt thou terrify the scattered leaf? and wilt thou pursue the dry straw?

If a man die, shall he live? All the days of my warfare I will wait till the coming of my change.

Wherefore shall the unjust live? They grew old, also they were strong in power.

I shall laugh at them, they will not believe; and the light of my face they will not cast down.

The spirit of God made me, and the breath of the Almighty will cause me to live.

He will keep back his soul from the pit, and his life from passing away by the spear.

His life loathed bread, and his soul food of desire.

And his soul will draw near to the pit, and his life to the dead.

Redeem my soul from passing into the pit, and my life shall look upon light

Their soul will die in youth, and their life among the consecrated.

Wilt thou hunt the prey for the lion? and wilt thou fill up the life of the young lions?

He will laugh at the multitude of the city; he will not hear the noise of him driving.

For the time she will lash herself up upon height, she will laugh at the horse and at his rider.

He will laugh at fear, and he will not be dismayed; and he will not turn back from the face of the sword.

The bludgeon was reckoned to him for stubble: and he will laugh at the shaking of the javelin.

And Job will live after this a hundred and forty years, and he will see his sons, and his sons' sons, four generations.
