Genesis 3

Today’s Reading :  Job 6 – 10  and  1Thessalonians 2  (KJV)

 

 

Job 6

Job 6:1  But Job answered and said,

Job 6:2  Oh that my grief were throughly weighed, and my calamity laid in the balances together!

Job 6:3  For now it would be heavier than the sand of the sea: therefore my words are swallowed up.

Job 6:4  For the arrows of the Almighty are within me, the poison whereof drinketh up my spirit: the terrors of God do set themselves in array against me.

Job 6:5  Doth the wild ass bray when he hath grass? or loweth the ox over his fodder?

Job 6:6  Can that which is unsavoury be eaten without salt? or is there any taste in the white of an egg?

Job 6:7  The things that my soul refused to touch are as my sorrowful meat.

Job 6:8  Oh that I might have my request; and that God would grant me the thing that I long for!

Job 6:9  Even that it would please God to destroy me; that he would let loose his hand, and cut me off!

Job 6:10  Then should I yet have comfort; yea, I would harden myself in sorrow: let him not spare; for I have not concealed the words of the Holy One.

Job 6:11  What is my strength, that I should hope? and what is mine end, that I should prolong my life?

Job 6:12  Is my strength the strength of stones? or is my flesh of brass?

Job 6:13  Is not my help in me? and is wisdom driven quite from me?

Job 6:14  To him that is afflicted pity should be showed from his friend; but he forsaketh the fear of the Almighty.

Job 6:15  My brethren have dealt deceitfully as a brook, and as the stream of brooks they pass away;

Job 6:16  Which are blackish by reason of the ice, and wherein the snow is hid:

Job 6:17  What time they wax warm, they vanish: when it is hot, they are consumed out of their place.

Job 6:18  The paths of their way are turned aside; they go to nothing, and perish.

Job 6:19  The troops of Tema looked, the companies of Sheba waited for them.

Job 6:20  They were confounded because they had hoped; they came thither, and were ashamed.

Job 6:21  For now ye are nothing; ye see my casting down, and are afraid.

Job 6:22  Did I say, Bring unto me? or, Give a reward for me of your substance?

Job 6:23  Or, Deliver me from the enemy's hand? or, Redeem me from the hand of the mighty?

Job 6:24  Teach me, and I will hold my tongue: and cause me to understand wherein I have erred.

Job 6:25  How forcible are right words! but what doth your arguing reprove?

Job 6:26  Do ye imagine to reprove words, and the speeches of one that is desperate, which are as wind?

Job 6:27  Yea, ye overwhelm the fatherless, and ye dig a pit for your friend.

Job 6:28  Now therefore be content, look upon me; for it is evident unto you if I lie.

Job 6:29  Return, I pray you, let it not be iniquity; yea, return again, my righteousness is in it.

Job 6:30  Is there iniquity in my tongue? cannot my taste discern perverse things?

 

 

Job 7

Job 7:1  Is there not an appointed time to man upon earth? are not his days also like the days of a hireling?

Job 7:2  As a servant earnestly desireth the shadow, and as a hireling looketh for the reward of his work:

Job 7:3  So am I made to possess months of vanity, and wearisome nights are appointed to me.

Job 7:4  When I lie down, I say, When shall I arise, and the night be gone? and I am full of tossings to and fro unto the dawning of the day.

Job 7:5  My flesh is clothed with worms and clods of dust; my skin is broken, and become loathsome.

Job 7:6  My days are swifter than a weaver's shuttle, and are spent without hope.

Job 7:7  O remember that my life is wind: mine eye shall no more see good.

Job 7:8  The eye of him that hath seen me shall see me no more: thine eyes are upon me, and I am not.

Job 7:9  As the cloud is consumed and vanisheth away: so he that goeth down to the grave shall come up no more.

Job 7:10  He shall return no more to his house, neither shall his place know him any more.

Job 7:11  Therefore I will not refrain my mouth; I will speak in the anguish of my spirit; I will complain in the bitterness of my soul.

Job 7:12  Am I a sea, or a whale, that thou settest a watch over me?

Job 7:13  When I say, My bed shall comfort me, my couch shall ease my complaint;

Job 7:14  Then thou scarest me with dreams, and terrifiest me through visions:

Job 7:15  So that my soul chooseth strangling, and death rather than my life.

Job 7:16  I loathe it; I would not live always: let me alone; for my days are vanity.

Job 7:17  What is man, that thou shouldest magnify him? and that thou shouldest set thine heart upon him?

Job 7:18  And that thou shouldest visit him every morning, and try him every moment?

Job 7:19  How long wilt thou not depart from me, nor let me alone till I swallow down my spittle?

Job 7:20  I have sinned; what shall I do unto thee, O thou preserver of men? why hast thou set me as a mark against thee, so that I am a burden to myself?

Job 7:21  And why dost thou not pardon my transgression, and take away mine iniquity? for now shall I sleep in the dust; and thou shalt seek me in the morning, but I shall not be.

 

 

Job 8

Job 8:1  Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said,

Job 8:2  How long wilt thou speak these things? and how long shall the words of thy mouth be like a strong wind?

Job 8:3  Doth God pervert judgment? or doth the Almighty pervert justice?

Job 8:4  If thy children have sinned against him, and he have cast them away for their transgression;

Job 8:5  If thou wouldest seek unto God quickly, and make thy supplication to the Almighty;

Job 8:6  If thou wast pure and upright; surely now he would awake for thee, and make the habitation of thy righteousness prosperous.

Job 8:7  Though thy beginning was small, yet thy latter end should greatly increase.

Job 8:8  For inquire, I pray thee, of the former age, and prepare thyself to the search of their fathers:

Job 8:9  (For we are but of yesterday, and know nothing, because our days upon earth are a shadow:)

Job 8:10  Shall not they teach thee, and tell thee, and utter words out of their heart?

Job 8:11  Can the rush grow up without mire? can the flag grow without water?

Job 8:12  Whilst it is yet in his greenness, and not cut down, it withereth before any other herb.

Job 8:13  So are the paths of all that forget God; and the hypocrite's hope shall perish:

Job 8:14  Whose hope shall be cut off, and whose trust shall be a spider's web.

Job 8:15  He shall lean upon his house, but it shall not stand: he shall hold it fast, but it shall not endure.

Job 8:16  He is green before the sun, and his branch shooteth forth in his garden.

Job 8:17  His roots are wrapped about the heap, and seeth the place of stones.

Job 8:18  If he destroy him from his place, then it shall deny him, saying, I have not seen thee.

Job 8:19  Behold, this is the joy of his way, and out of the earth shall others grow.

Job 8:20  Behold, God will not cast away a perfect man, neither will he help the evildoers:

Job 8:21  Till he fill thy mouth with laughing, and thy lips with rejoicing.

Job 8:22  They that hate thee shall be clothed with shame; and the dwelling place of the wicked shall come to naught.

 

 

Job 9

Job 9:1  Then Job answered and said,

Job 9:2  I know it is so of a truth: but how should man be just with God?

Job 9:3  If he will contend with him, he cannot answer him one of a thousand.

Job 9:4  He is wise in heart, and mighty in strength: who hath hardened himself against him, and hath prospered?

Job 9:5  Which removeth the mountains, and they know not: which overturneth them in his anger.

Job 9:6  Which shaketh the earth out of her place, and the pillars thereof tremble.

Job 9:7  Which commandeth the sun, and it riseth not; and sealeth up the stars.

Job 9:8  Which alone spreadeth out the heavens, and treadeth upon the waves of the sea.

Job 9:9  Which maketh Arcturus, Orion, and Pleiades, and the chambers of the south.

Job 9:10  Which doeth great things past finding out; yea, and wonders without number.

Job 9:11  Lo, he goeth by me, and I see him not: he passeth on also, but I perceive him not.

Job 9:12  Behold, he taketh away, who can hinder him? who will say unto him, What doest thou?

Job 9:13  If God will not withdraw his anger, the proud helpers do stoop under him.

Job 9:14  How much less shall I answer him, and choose out my words to reason with him?

Job 9:15  Whom, though I were righteous, yet would I not answer, but I would make supplication to my judge.

Job 9:16  If I had called, and he had answered me; yet would I not believe that he had hearkened unto my voice.

Job 9:17  For he breaketh me with a tempest, and multiplieth my wounds without cause.

Job 9:18  He will not suffer me to take my breath, but filleth me with bitterness.

Job 9:19  If I speak of strength, lo, he is strong: and if of judgment, who shall set me a time to plead?

Job 9:20  If I justify myself, mine own mouth shall condemn me: if I say, I am perfect, it shall also prove me perverse.

Job 9:21  Though I were perfect, yet would I not know my soul: I would despise my life.

Job 9:22  This is one thing, therefore I said it, He destroyeth the perfect and the wicked.

Job 9:23  If the scourge slay suddenly, he will laugh at the trial of the innocent.

Job 9:24  The earth is given into the hand of the wicked: he covereth the faces of the judges thereof; if not, where, and who is he?

Job 9:25  Now my days are swifter than a post: they flee away, they see no good.

Job 9:26  They are passed away as the swift ships: as the eagle that hasteth to the prey.

Job 9:27  If I say, I will forget my complaint, I will leave off my heaviness, and comfort myself:

Job 9:28  I am afraid of all my sorrows, I know that thou wilt not hold me innocent.

Job 9:29  If I be wicked, why then labour I in vain?

Job 9:30  If I wash myself with snow water, and make my hands never so clean;

Job 9:31  Yet shalt thou plunge me in the ditch, and mine own clothes shall abhor me.

Job 9:32  For he is not a man, as I am, that I should answer him, and we should come together in judgment.

Job 9:33  Neither is there any daysman between us, that might lay his hand upon us both.

Job 9:34  Let him take his rod away from me, and let not his fear terrify me:

Job 9:35  Then would I speak, and not fear him; but it is not so with me.

 

 

Job 10

Job 10:1  My soul is weary of my life; I will leave my complaint upon myself; I will speak in the bitterness of my soul.

Job 10:2  I will say unto God, Do not condemn me; show me wherefore thou contendest with me.

Job 10:3  Is it good unto thee that thou shouldest oppress, that thou shouldest despise the work of thine hands, and shine upon the counsel of the wicked?

Job 10:4  Hast thou eyes of flesh? or seest thou as man seeth?

Job 10:5  Are thy days as the days of man? are thy years as man's days,

Job 10:6  That thou inquirest after mine iniquity, and searchest after my sin?

Job 10:7  Thou knowest that I am not wicked; and there is none that can deliver out of thine hand.

Job 10:8  Thine hands have made me and fashioned me together round about; yet thou dost destroy me.

Job 10:9  Remember, I beseech thee, that thou hast made me as the clay; and wilt thou bring me into dust again?

Job 10:10  Hast thou not poured me out as milk, and curdled me like cheese?

Job 10:11  Thou hast clothed me with skin and flesh, and hast fenced me with bones and sinews.

Job 10:12  Thou hast granted me life and favour, and thy visitation hath preserved my spirit.

Job 10:13  And these things hast thou hid in thine heart: I know that this is with thee.

Job 10:14  If I sin, then thou markest me, and thou wilt not acquit me from mine iniquity.

Job 10:15  If I be wicked, woe unto me; and if I be righteous, yet will I not lift up my head. I am full of confusion; therefore see thou mine affliction;

Job 10:16  For it increaseth. Thou huntest me as a fierce lion: and again thou showest thyself marvellous upon me.

Job 10:17  Thou renewest thy witnesses against me, and increasest thine indignation upon me; changes and war are against me.

Job 10:18  Wherefore then hast thou brought me forth out of the womb? Oh that I had given up the ghost, and no eye had seen me!

Job 10:19  I should have been as though I had not been; I should have been carried from the womb to the grave.

Job 10:20  Are not my days few? cease then, and let me alone, that I may take comfort a little,

Job 10:21  Before I go whence I shall not return, even to the land of darkness and the shadow of death;

Job 10:22  A land of darkness, as darkness itself; and of the shadow of death, without any order, and where the light is as darkness.

 

 

1Thessalonians 2

1Th 2:1  For yourselves, brethren, know our entrance in unto you, that it was not in vain:

1Th 2:2  But even after that we had suffered before, and were shamefully entreated, as ye know, at Philippi, we were bold in our God to speak unto you the gospel of God with much contention.

1Th 2:3  For our exhortation was not of deceit, nor of uncleanness, nor in guile:

1Th 2:4  But as we were allowed of God to be put in trust with the gospel, even so we speak; not as pleasing men, but God, which trieth our hearts.

1Th 2:5  For neither at any time used we flattering words, as ye know, nor a cloak of covetousness; God is witness:

1Th 2:6  Nor of men sought we glory, neither of you, nor yet of others, when we might have been burdensome, as the apostles of Christ.

1Th 2:7  But we were gentle among you, even as a nurse cherisheth her children:

1Th 2:8  So being affectionately desirous of you, we were willing to have imparted unto you, not the gospel of God only, but also our own souls, because ye were dear unto us.

1Th 2:9  For ye remember, brethren, our labour and travail: for labouring night and day, because we would not be chargeable unto any of you, we preached unto you the gospel of God.

1Th 2:10  Ye are witnesses, and God also, how holily and justly and unblameably we behaved ourselves among you that believe:

1Th 2:11  As ye know how we exhorted and comforted and charged every one of you, as a father doth his children,

1Th 2:12  That ye would walk worthy of God, who hath called you unto his kingdom and glory.

1Th 2:13  For this cause also thank we God without ceasing, because, when ye received the word of God which ye heard of us, ye received it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of God, which effectually worketh also in you that believe.

1Th 2:14  For ye, brethren, became followers of the churches of God which in Judea are in Christ Jesus: for ye also have suffered like things of your own countrymen, even as they have of the Jews:

1Th 2:15  Who both killed the Lord Jesus, and their own prophets, and have persecuted us; and they please not God, and are contrary to all men:

1Th 2:16  Forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles that they might be saved, to fill up their sins always: for the wrath is come upon them to the uttermost.

1Th 2:17  But we, brethren, being taken from you for a short time in presence, not in heart, endeavoured the more abundantly to see your face with great desire.

1Th 2:18  Wherefore we would have come unto you, even I Paul, once and again; but Satan hindered us.

1Th 2:19  For what is our hope, or joy, or crown of rejoicing? Are not even ye in the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ at his coming?

1Th 2:20  For ye are our glory and joy.
