The King James Version Bible

Job 29:11-17

  1. When the ear heard me, then it blessed me; and when the eye saw me, it gave witness to me:

  2. Because I delivered the poor that cried, and the fatherless, and him that had none to help him.

  3. The blessing of him that was ready to perish came upon me: and I caused the widow's heart to sing for joy.

  4. I put on righteousness, and it clothed me: my judgment was as a robe and a diadem.

  5. I was eyes to the blind, and feet was I to the lame.

  6. I was a father to the poor: and the cause which I knew not I searched out.

  7. And I brake the jaws of the wicked, and plucked the spoil out of his teeth.
