The King James Version Bible

Job 17:3-8

  1. Lay down now, put me in a surety with thee; who is he that will strike hands with me?

  2. For thou hast hid their heart from understanding: therefore shalt thou not exalt them.

  3. He that speaketh flattery to his friends, even the eyes of his children shall fail.

  4. He hath made me also a byword of the people; and aforetime I was as a tabret.

  5. Mine eye also is dim by reason of sorrow, and all my members are as a shadow.

  6. Upright men shall be astonied at this, and the innocent shall stir up himself against the hypocrite.
