Job -- 40

{1} Moreover the LORD answered Job, and said,
{2} Shall he that contendeth with the Almighty instruct him? he that reproveth God, let him answer it.
{3} Then Job answered the LORD, and said,
{4} Behold, I am vile; what shall I answer thee? I will lay mine hand upon my mouth.
{5} Once have I spoken; but I will not answer: yea, twice; but I will proceed no further.
{6} Then answered the LORD unto Job out of the whirlwind, and said,
{7} Gird up thy loins now like a man: I will demand of thee, and declare thou unto me.
{8} Wilt thou also disannul my judgment? wilt thou condemn me, that thou mayest be righteous?
{9} Hast thou an arm like God? or canst thou thunder with a voice like him?
{10} Deck thyself now with majesty and excellency; and array thyself with glory and beauty.
{11} Cast abroad the rage of thy wrath: and behold every one that is proud, and abase him.
{12} Look on every one that is proud, and bring him low; and tread down the wicked in their place.
{13} Hide them in the dust together; and bind their faces in secret.
{14} Then will I also confess unto thee that thine own right hand can save thee.
{15} Behold now behemoth, which I made with thee; he eateth grass as an ox.
{16} Lo now, his strength is in his loins, and his force is in the navel of his belly.
{17} He moveth his tail like a cedar: the sinews of his stones are wrapped together.
{18} His bones are as strong pieces of brass; his bones are like bars of iron.
{19} He is the chief of the ways of God: he that made him can make his sword to approach unto him.
{20} Surely the mountains bring him forth food, where all the beasts of the field play.
{21} He lieth under the shady trees, in the covert of the reed, and fens.
{22} The shady trees cover him with their shadow; the willows of the brook compass him about.
{23} Behold, he drinketh up a river, and hasteth not: he trusteth that he can draw up Jordan into his mouth.
{24} He taketh it with his eyes: his nose pierceth through snares.

Job -- 41

{1} Canst thou draw out leviathan with an hook? or his tongue with a cord which thou lettest down?
{2} Canst thou put an hook into his nose? or bore his jaw through with a thorn?
{3} Will he make many supplications unto thee? will he speak soft words unto thee?
{4} Will he make a covenant with thee? wilt thou take him for a servant for ever?
{5} Wilt thou play with him as with a bird? or wilt thou bind him for thy maidens?
{6} Shall the companions make a banquet of him? shall they part him among the merchants?
{7} Canst thou fill his skin with barbed iron? or his head with fish spears?
{8} Lay thine hand upon him, remember the battle, do no more.
{9} Behold, the hope of him is in vain: shall not one be cast down even at the sight of him?
{10} None is so fierce that dare stir him up: who then is able to stand before me?
{11} Who hath prevented me, that I should repay him? whatsoever is under the whole heaven is mine.
{12} I will not conceal his parts, nor his power, nor his comely proportion.
{13} Who can discover the face of his garment? or who can come to him with his double bridle?
{14} Who can open the doors of his face? his teeth are terrible round about.
{15} His scales are his pride, shut up together as with a close seal.
{16} One is so near to another, that no air can come between them.
{17} They are joined one to another, they stick together, that they cannot be sundered.
{18} By his neesings a light doth shine, and his eyes are like the eyelids of the morning.
{19} Out of his mouth go burning lamps, and sparks of fire leap out.
{20} Out of his nostrils goeth smoke, as out of a seething pot or caldron.
{21} His breath kindleth coals, and a flame goeth out of his mouth.
{22} In his neck remaineth strength, and sorrow is turned into joy before him.
{23} The flakes of his flesh are joined together: they are firm in themselves; they cannot be moved.
{24} His heart is as firm as a stone; yea, as hard as a piece of the nether millstone.
{25} When he raiseth up himself, the mighty are afraid: by reason of breakings they purify themselves.
{26} The sword of him that layeth at him cannot hold: the spear, the dart, nor the habergeon.
{27} He esteemeth iron as straw, and brass as rotten wood.
{28} The arrow cannot make him flee: slingstones are turned with him into stubble.
{29} Darts are counted as stubble: he laugheth at the shaking of a spear.
{30} Sharp stones are under him: he spreadeth sharp pointed things upon the mire.
{31} He maketh the deep to boil like a pot: he maketh the sea like a pot of ointment.
{32} He maketh a path to shine after him; one would think the deep to be hoary.
{33} Upon earth there is not his like, who is made without fear.
{34} He beholdeth all high things: he is a king over all the children of pride.

Job -- 42

{1} Then Job answered the LORD, and said,
{2} I know that thou canst do every thing, and that no thought can be withholden from thee.
{3} Who is he that hideth counsel without knowledge? therefore have I uttered that I understood not; things too wonderful for me, which I knew not.
{4} Hear, I beseech thee, and I will speak: I will demand of thee, and declare thou unto me.
{5} I have heard of thee by the hearing of the ear: but now mine eye seeth thee.
{6} Wherefore I abhor myself, and repent in dust and ashes.
{7} And it was so, that after the LORD had spoken these words unto Job, the LORD said to Eliphaz the Temanite, My wrath is kindled against thee, and against thy two friends: for ye have not spoken of me the thing that is right, as my servant Job hath.
{8} Therefore take unto you now seven bullocks and seven rams, and go to my servant Job, and offer up for yourselves a burnt offering; and my servant Job shall pray for you: for him will I accept: lest I deal with you after your folly, in that ye have not spoken of me the thing which is right, like my servant Job --
{9} So Eliphaz the Temanite and Bildad the Shuhite and Zophar the Naamathite went, and did according as the LORD commanded them: the LORD also accepted Job --
{10} And the LORD turned the captivity of Job, when he prayed for his friends: also the LORD gave Job twice as much as he had before.
{11} Then came there unto him all his brethren, and all his sisters, and all they that had been of his acquaintance before, and did eat bread with him in his house: and they bemoaned him, and comforted him over all the evil that the LORD had brought upon him: every man also gave him a piece of money, and every one an earring of gold.
{12} So the LORD blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning: for he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she asses.
{13} He had also seven sons and three daughters.
{14} And he called the name of the first, Jemima; and the name of the second, Kezia; and the name of the third, Keren-happuch.
{15} And in all the land were no women found so fair as the daughters of Job: and their father gave them inheritance among their brethren.
{16} After this lived Job an hundred and forty years, and saw his sons, and his sons' sons, even four generations.
{17} So Job died, being old and full of days.

Acts -- 15

{1} And certain men which came down from Judaea taught the brethren, and said, Except ye be circumcised after the manner of Moses, ye cannot be saved.
{2} When therefore Paul and Barnabas had no small dissension and disputation with them, they determined that Paul and Barnabas, and certain other of them, should go up to Jerusalem unto the apostles and elders about this question.
{3} And being brought on their way by the church, they passed through Phenice and Samaria, declaring the conversion of the Gentiles: and they caused great joy unto all the brethren.
{4} And when they were come to Jerusalem, they were received of the church, and of the apostles and elders, and they declared all things that God had done with them.
{5} But there rose up certain of the sect of the Pharisees which believed, saying, That it was needful to circumcise them, and to command them to keep the law of Moses.
{6} And the apostles and elders came together for to consider of this matter.
{7} And when there had been much disputing, Peter rose up, and said unto them, Men and brethren, ye know how that a good while ago God made choice among us, that the Gentiles by my mouth should hear the word of the gospel, and believe.
{8} And God, which knoweth the hearts, bare them witness, giving them the Holy Ghost, even as he did unto us;
{9} And put no difference between us and them, purifying their hearts by faith.
{10} Now therefore why tempt ye God, to put a yoke upon the neck of the disciples, which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear?
{11} But we believe that through the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ we shall be saved, even as they.
{12} Then all the multitude kept silence, and gave audience to Barnabas and Paul, declaring what miracles and wonders God had wrought among the Gentiles by them.
{13} And after they had held their peace, James answered, saying, Men and brethren, hearken unto me:
{14} Simeon hath declared how God at the first did visit the Gentiles, to take out of them a people for his name.
{15} And to this agree the words of the prophets; as it is written,
{16} After this I will return, and will build again the tabernacle of David, which is fallen down; and I will build again the ruins thereof, and I will set it up:
{17} That the residue of men might seek after the Lord, and all the Gentiles, upon whom my name is called, saith the Lord, who doeth all these things.
{18} Known unto God are all his works from the beginning of the world.
{19} Wherefore my sentence is, that we trouble not them, which from among the Gentiles are turned to God:
{20} But that we write unto them, that they abstain from pollutions of idols, and from fornication, and from things strangled, and from blood.
{21} For Moses of old time hath in every city them that preach him, being read in the synagogues every sabbath day.
{22} Then pleased it the apostles and elders, with the whole church, to send chosen men of their own company to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas; namely, Judas surnamed Barsabas, and Silas, chief men among the brethren:
{23} And they wrote letters by them after this manner; The apostles and elders and brethren send greeting unto the brethren which are of the Gentiles in Antioch and Syria and Cilicia:
{24} Forasmuch as we have heard, that certain which went out from us have troubled you with words, subverting your souls, saying, Ye must be circumcised, and keep the law: to whom we gave no such commandment:
{25} It seemed good unto us, being assembled with one accord, to send chosen men unto you with our beloved Barnabas and Paul,
{26} Men that have hazarded their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
{27} We have sent therefore Judas and Silas, who shall also tell you the same things by mouth.
{28} For it seemed good to the Holy Ghost, and to us, to lay upon you no greater burden than these necessary things;
{29} That ye abstain from meats offered to idols, and from blood, and from things strangled, and from fornication: from which if ye keep yourselves, ye shall do well. Fare ye well.
{30} So when they were dismissed, they came to Antioch: and when they had gathered the multitude together, they delivered the epistle:
{31} Which when they had read, they rejoiced for the consolation.
{32} And Judas and Silas, being prophets also themselves, exhorted the brethren with many words, and confirmed them.
{33} And after they had tarried there a space, they were let go in peace from the brethren unto the apostles.
{34} Notwithstanding it pleased Silas to abide there still.
{35} Paul also and Barnabas continued in Antioch, teaching and preaching the word of the Lord, with many others also.
{36} And some days after Paul said unto Barnabas, Let us go again and visit our brethren in every city where we have preached the word of the Lord, and see how they do.
{37} And Barnabas determined to take with them John, whose surname was Mark.
{38} But Paul thought not good to take him with them, who departed from them from Pamphylia, and went not with them to the work.
{39} And the contention was so sharp between them, that they departed asunder one from the other: and so Barnabas took Mark, and sailed unto Cyprus;
{40} And Paul chose Silas, and departed, being recommended by the brethren unto the grace of God.
{41} And he went through Syria and Cilicia, confirming the churches.
