When My Lamp Shone · Job 29

Open this scene in the reader →

7When I went out to the city gate, when I prepared my seat in the square,

8The young men saw me and hid themselves, and the aged rose and stood.

9Princes held back their words, and put their hand over their mouth.

10The voice of nobles was hushed, and their tongue stuck to the roof of their mouth.

11For when an ear heard, it called me blessed, and when an eye saw, it testified about me.
