Job 29:1-6

Job’s Summary Defense

1 And Job again ^atook up his discourse, and said:

2 “Oh, that I were as in the months of old,
as in the days when God watched over me,
3 when his ^blamp shone upon my head,
and by his light I walked through darkness,
4 as I was in my prime, ^{▼▼Hebrew my autumn days}
when the ^dfriendship of God was upon my tent,
5 when the Almighty was yet with me,
when my ^echildren were all around me,
6 when my steps were ^fwashed with ^gbutter,
and ^hthe rock poured out for me streams of ⁱoil!
