CHAP. XXVII. 1 Iob protesteth his sincerity. 8 The Hypocrite is without hope. 11 The blessings, which the wicked haue, are turned into curses: Hypocrites hope.

1   
Moreouer Iob note continued his parable, and sayd,

2   
As God liueth, who hath taken away my iudgment, and the Almighty, who hath note vexed my soule;

3   
All the while my breath is in mee, and note the spirit of God is in my nostrils;

4   
My lips shall not speake wickednesse, nor my tongue vtter deceit.

5   
God forbid that I should iustifie you: till I die, I will not remoue my integritie from me.

6   
My righteousnesse I hold fast, and will not let it goe: my heart shall not reproach me note so long as I liue.

7   
Let mine enemie be as the wicked, and he that riseth vp against me, as the vnrighteous.

8   
noteFor what is the hope of the hypocrite, though he hath gained, when God taketh away his soule?

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

10   
Will he delight himselfe in the Almightie? will hee alwayes call vpon God?

11   
I will teach you note by the hand of God: that which is with the Almightie, will I not conceale.

12   
Behold, all ye your selues haue seene it, why then are yee thus altogether vaine?

13   
This is the portion of a wicked man with God, and the heritage of oppressours which they shall receiue of the Almightie.

14   
If his children be multiplied, it is for the sword: and his offpring shall not be satisfied with bread.

15   
noteThose that remaine of him shall bee buried in death: and his widowes shall not weepe.

16   
Though he 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 diuide the siluer.

18   
He buildeth his house as a moth, and as a booth that the keeper maketh.

19   
The rich man shall lie downe, but he shall not be gathered: he openeth his eyes, and he is not:

20   
noteTerrours take hold on him as waters, a tempest stealeth him away in the night.

21   
The East winde carieth him away,

-- --

Gods wisedome. and he departeth: and as a storme hurleth him out of his place.

22   
For God shall cast vpon him, and not spare: note hee would faine flee out of his hand.

23   
Men shall clap their handes at him, and shall hisse him out of his place. 464
