CHAP. XXVII. 3 The constancie and perfitnesse of Iob. 13 The rewarde of the wicked and of the tyrants.


1   Moreouer Iob proceeded and continued his parable, saying,


2   The liuing God hath taken away my note iudgement: for the Almightie hath put my soule in bitternesse.


3   Yet so long as my breath is in me, and the Spirit of God in my nostrels,


4   My lips surely shall speake no wickednesse, note and my tongue shall vtter no deceite.


5   God forbid, that I should note iustifie you: vntill I dye, I will neuer take away mine note innocencie from my selfe.


6   I will keepe my righteousnesse, and wil not forsake it: mine heart shall not reprooue me of my note dayes.


7   Mine enemie shal be as the wicked, and he that riseth against me, as the vnrighteous.


8   For what note hope hath the hypocrite when he hath heaped vp riches, if God take away his soule?


9   Will God heare his cry, when trouble commeth vpon him?


10   Will he set his delight on the Almightie? will he call vpon God at all times?


11   I will teache you what is in the hande of note God, and I wil not conceale that which is with the Almightie.


12   Beholde, all ye your selues note haue seene it: why then doe you thus vanish note in vanitie?


13   This is the note portion of a wicked man with God, and the heritage of tyrants, which they shal receiue of the Almightie.


14   If his children be in great nomber, the sworde shall destroy them, and his posteritie shall not be satisfied with bread.


15   His remnant shall be buried in death, and his widowes note shall not weepe.


16   Though he shoulde heape vp siluer as the dust, and prepare rayment as the clay,


17   He may prepare it, but the iust shall put it on, and the innocent shall deuide the siluer.


18   He buildeth his house as the note moth, and as a lodge that the watchman maketh.


19   When the rich man sleepeth, note he shal not be gathered to his fathers: they opened their eyes, and he was gone.


20   Terrours shal take him as waters, & a tempest shall cary him away by night.


21   The East winde shall take him away, & he shal depart: & it shal hurle him out of his place.


22   And God shal cast vpon him and not spare, though he would faine flee out of his hand.

-- --

Wisedome.


23   Euery man shall clap their hands at him, & hisse at him out of their place.
