⁹ Is `it' good that He doth search you, If, as one mocketh at a man, ye mock at Him?

¹⁰ I Jehovah do search the heart, try the reins, Even to give to each according to his way, According to the fruit of his doings.

⁷ Be not led astray; God is not mocked; for what a man may sow -- that also he shall reap,

⁸ because he who is sowing to his own flesh, of the flesh shall reap corruption; and he who is sowing to the Spirit, of the Spirit shall reap life age-during;

¹⁶ With Him `are' strength and wisdom, His the deceived and deceiver.

² If not -- mockeries `are' with me. And in their provocations mine eye lodgeth.

³⁶ My Father! let Job be tried -- unto victory, Because of answers for men of iniquity,

²¹ Doth not God search out this? For He knoweth the secrets of the heart.

²³ Search me, O God, and know my heart, Try me, and know my thoughts,

²² And now, show not yourselves scorners, Lest strong be your bands, For a consumption, that is determined, I have heard, by the Lord, Jehovah of Hosts, `Is' for all the land.
