surely now he would awaken for you,
and make the habitation of your righteousness prosperous.

yet your latter end would greatly increase. . . . While it is yet in its greenness, not cut down,
it withers before any other reed.

neither will he uphold the evildoers.

your lips with shouting. Job 22:1-2, 21-22, 24-30 . . . Can a man be profitable to God? Surely he who is wise is profitable to himself. . . . Acquaint yourself with him, now, and be at peace.
