THE BOOK OF JOB.
CHAPTER 13:
7 Will ye speak wickedly for God? and
talk deceitfully for him?
8 Will ye accept his person? will ye
contend for God?
9 Is it good that he should search you out?
or as one man mocketh another, do ye so
mock him?
10 He will surely reprove you, if ye do
secretly accept persons.

CHAPTER 15:
22 And Samuel said, Hath the LORD as
great delight in burnt offerings and
sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the
LORD? Behold, to obey is better than
sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of
rams.
23 For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft,
and stubbornness is as iniquity and
idolatry. Because thou hast rejected the
word of the LORD, he hath also rejected
thee from being king.

CHAPTER 6:
9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall
not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not
deceived: neither fornicators, nor
idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate,
nor abusers of themselves with mankind,
10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor
drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners,
shall inherit the kingdom of God.

CHAPTER 8:
8 How do ye say, We are wise, and the
law of the LORD is with us? Lo, certainly
in vain made he it; the pen of the scribes
is in vain.
9 The wise men are ashamed, they are
dismayed and taken: lo, they have rejected
the word of the LORD; and what wisdom is
in them?

CHAPTER 10:
26 He said unto him, What is written in
the law? how readest thou?

CHAPTER 6:
10 To whom shall I speak, and give
warning, that they may hear? behold, their
ear is uncircumcised, and they cannot
hearken: behold, the word of the LORD is
unto them a reproach; they have no delight
in it.

CHAPTER 28:
12 But where shall wisdom be found? and
where is the place of understanding?
21 Seeing it is hid from the eyes of all
living, and kept close from the fowls of
the air.
22 Destruction and death say, We have
heard the fame thereof with our ears.
23 God understandeth the way thereof,
and he knoweth the place thereof.
28 And unto man he said, Behold, the fear
of the Lord, that is wisdom; and to depart
from evil is understanding.

CHAPTER 23:
18 For who hath stood in the counsel of
the LORD, and hath perceived and heard
his word? who hath marked his word, and
heard it?
