Job 33–34: Listening & Not Hearing
“Surely you have spoken in my hearing,
And I have heard the sound of your speech”
Truth For The Heart
“Surely you have spoken in my hearing,
And I have heard the sound of your speech”
“Oh that I had one to hear me!
Behold, here is my signature;
Let the Almighty answer me!”
“I cry out to You for help,
but You do not answer me.”
“Till I breathe my last
I will not remove my integrity from me.
I hold fast my righteousness
and will not let it go.
My heart does not reproach
any of my days.”
“What a help you are
to the one without power!
How you have saved
the arm without strength!
What counsel you have given
to one without wisdom!”
But He knows the way I take;
When He has tested me,
I shall come forth as gold.”
“How then will you vainly comfort me,
Indeed when your answers remain
full of falsehood?”
“My kinsmen have gone away,
my friends have forgotten me.”
