        Job 27
      
    </p>

<p>

      
         1.  Moreover 
      
      
        <b>Job continued </b>
      
      
        his parable, and said,
      
    <br/>

      
         
      
      
        <b>2.  As God liveth, who hath taken away my judgment; and the Almighty, who hath vexed my 
        soul;</b>
      
    <br/>

      
        <b> 3.  All the while my breath is in me, and the spirit of God is in my nostrils;</b>
      
    <br/>

      
        <b> 4.  My lips shall not speak wickedness, nor my tongue utter deceit.</b>
      
    <br/>

      
         
      
      
        <b>5.  God forbid that I should justify you: till I die I will not remove mine integrity 
        from me.</b>
      
    <br/>

      
        <b> 6.  My righteousness I hold fast, and will not let it go: my heart shall not reproach 
        me so long as I live.</b>
      
    <br/>

      
         7.  Let mine enemy be as the wicked, and he that riseth up against me as the unrighteous.
      
    <br/>

      
         
      
      
        <b>8.  For what is the hope of the hypocrite, though he hath gained, when God taketh away 
        his soul?</b>
      
    <br/>

      
         9.  Will God hear his cry when trouble cometh upon him?
      
    <br/>

      
         10.  Will he delight himself in the Almighty? will he always call upon God?
      
    <br/>

      
         11.  I will teach you by the hand of God: that which is with the Almighty will I not 
        conceal.
      
    <br/>

      
         
      
      
        <b>12.  Behold, all ye yourselves have seen it; why then are ye thus altogether vain?</b>
      
    <br/>

      
         13.  This is the portion of a wicked man with God, and the heritage of oppressors, which 
        they shall receive of the Almighty.
      
    <br/>

      
         14.  If his children be multiplied, it is for the sword: and his offspring shall not be 
        satisfied with bread.
      
    <br/>

      
         15.  Those that remain of him shall be buried in death: and his widows shall not weep.
      
    <br/>

      
         16.  Though he heap up silver as the dust, and prepare raiment as the clay;
      
    <br/>

      
        <b> 17.  He may prepare it, but the just shall put it on, and the innocent shall divide 
        the silver.</b>
      
    <br/>

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

      
         19.  The rich man shall lie down, but he shall not be gathered: he openeth his eyes, and 
        he is not.
      
    <br/>

      
         20.  Terrors take hold on him as waters, a tempest stealeth him away in the night.
      
    <br/>

      
         21.  The east wind carrieth him away, and he departeth: and as a storm hurleth him out of 
        his place.
      
    <br/>

      
         22.  For God shall cast upon him, and not spare: he would fain flee out of his hand.
      
    <br/>

      
         23.  Men shall clap their hands at him, and shall hiss him out of his place.
