Job 29:18-25

“Then I said, ‘I shall die in my nest, And I shall multiply my days as the sand. ‘My root is spread out and open to the waters, And the dew lies all night upon my branch. ‘My glory and honor are fresh in me [being constantly renewed], And my bow gains [ever] new strength in my hand.’ ¶“They listened to me and waited And kept silent for my counsel. “After I spoke, they did not speak again, And my speech dropped upon them [like a refreshing shower]. “They waited for me [and for my words] as for the rain, And they opened their mouths as for the spring rain. “I smiled at them when they did not believe, And they did not diminish the light of my face. “I chose a way for them and sat as chief, And dwelt as a king among his soldiers, As one who comforts mourners.
