³ And Jehovah said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job? for there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and turneth away from evil: and he still holdeth fast his integrity, although thou movedst me against him, to destroy him without cause.

⁸ And Jehovah said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job? for there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and turneth away from evil.

⁵ Far be it from me that I should justify you: Till I die I will not put away mine integrity from me.

⁶ My righteousness I hold fast, and will not let it go: My heart shall not reproach `me' so long as I live.

¹⁷ For he breaketh me with a tempest, And multiplieth my wounds without cause.

¹ There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was perfect and upright, and one that feared God, and turned away from evil.

¹⁷ The highway of the upright is to depart from evil: He that keepeth his way preserveth his soul.

³ Jesus answered, Neither did this man sin, nor his parents: but that the works of God should be made manifest in him.

¹² Not that I have already obtained, or am already made perfect: but I press on, if so be that I may lay hold on that for which also I was laid hold on by Christ Jesus.

¹² Blessed is the man that endureth temptation; for when he hath been approved, he shall receive the crown of life, which `the Lord' promised to them that love him.

⁷ that the proof of your faith, `being' more precious than gold that perisheth though it is proved by fire, may be found unto praise and glory and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ:

¹⁰ And the God of all grace, who called you unto his eternal glory in Christ, after that ye have suffered a little while, shall himself perfect, establish, strengthen you.

⁸ The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to Jehovah; But the prayer of the upright is his delight.

² He that walketh in his uprightness feareth Jehovah; But he that is perverse in his ways despiseth him.

⁶ Righteousness guardeth him that is upright in the way; But wickedness overthroweth the sinner.

²⁰ And Joab answered and said, Far be it, far be it from me, that I should swallow up or destroy.

¹¹ But put forth thy hand now, and touch all that he hath, and he will renounce thee to thy face.

²¹ and he said, Naked came I out of my mother's womb, and naked shall I return thither: Jehovah gave, and Jehovah hath taken away; blessed be the name of Jehovah.

²² In all this Job sinned not, nor charged God foolishly.

²⁰ Though I be righteous, mine own mouth shall condemn me: Though I be perfect, it shall prove me perverse.

¹⁵ Behold, he will slay me; I have no hope: Nevertheless I will maintain my ways before him.

¹ Judge me, O Jehovah, for I have walked in mine integrity: I have trusted also in Jehovah without wavering.

³⁷ Mark the perfect man, and behold the upright; For there is a `happy' end to the man of peace.

¹² And as for me, thou upholdest me in mine integrity, And settest me before thy face for ever.

⁸ The righteous is delivered out of trouble, And the wicked cometh in his stead.

⁹ These are the generations of Noah. Noah was a righteous man, `and' perfect in his generations: Noah walked with God.
