³⁶ My desire is that Job may be tried unto the end because of his answers for wicked men.

⁶ The tabernacles of robbers prosper, and they that provoke God are secure; into whose hand God bringeth abundantly.

⁷ Wherefore do the wicked live, become old, yea, are mighty in power?

¹⁵ Hast thou marked the old way which wicked men have trodden?

¹⁶ For God maketh my heart soft, and the Almighty troubleth me:

¹ Why, seeing times are not hidden from the Almighty, do they that know him not see his days?

⁸ Which goeth in company with the workers of iniquity, and walketh with wicked men.

⁹ For he hath said, It profiteth a man nothing that he should delight himself with God.

³ Thou hast proved mine heart; thou hast visited me in the night; thou hast tried me, and shalt find nothing; I am purposed that my mouth shall not transgress.

² Examine me, O LORD, and prove me; try my reins and my heart.

¹¹ Behold, we count them happy which endure. Ye have heard of the patience of Job, and have seen the end of the Lord; that the Lord is very pitiful, and of tender mercy.
