And he said:“ Naked I came from my mother’s womb, And naked shall I return there. The Lord gave, and the Lord has taken away; Blessed be the name of the Lord.”In all this Job did not sin nor charge God with wrong.

And the Lord passed before him and proclaimed,“ The Lord, the Lord God, merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abounding in goodness and truth,

Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness’ sake, For theirs is the kingdom of heaven.Blessed are you when they revile and persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely for My sake.

Blessed is the man who endures temptation; for when he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life which the Lord has promised to those who love Him.

The Lord is merciful and gracious, Slow to anger, and abounding in mercy.

And you will be hated by all for My name’s sake. But he who endures to the end will be saved.

And the Lord restored Job’s losses when he prayed for his friends. Indeed the Lord gave Job twice as much as he had before.Then all his brothers, all his sisters, and all those who had been his acquaintances before, came to him and ate food with him in his house; and they consoled him and comforted him for all the adversity that the Lord had brought upon him. Each one gave him a piece of silver and each a ring of gold.Now the Lord blessed the latter days of Job more than his beginning; for he had fourteen thousand sheep, six thousand camels, one thousand yoke of oxen, and one thousand female donkeys.He also had seven sons and three daughters.And he called the name of the first Jemimah, the name of the second Keziah, and the name of the third Keren-Happuch.In all the land were found no women so beautiful as the daughters of Job; and their father gave them an inheritance among their brothers.After this Job lived one hundred and forty years, and saw his children and grandchildren for four generations.So Job died, old and full of days.

But he said to her,“ You speak as one of the foolish women speaks. Shall we indeed accept good from God, and shall we not accept adversity?” In all this Job did not sin with his lips.

In this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while, if need be, you have been grieved by various trials,that the genuineness of your faith, being much more precious than gold that perishes, though it is tested by fire, may be found to praise, honor, and glory at the revelation of Jesus Christ,

Seek the Lord while He may be found, Call upon Him while He is near.Let the wicked forsake his way, And the unrighteous man his thoughts; Let him return to the Lord, And He will have mercy on him; And to our God, For He will abundantly pardon.

then the Lord knows how to deliver the godly out of temptations and to reserve the unjust under punishment for the day of judgment,

‘ The Lord is longsuffering and abundant in mercy, forgiving iniquity and transgression; but He by no means clears the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and fourth generation.’

But we are not of those who draw back to perdition, but of those who believe to the saving of the soul.

O my God, incline Your ear and hear; open Your eyes and see our desolations, and the city which is called by Your name; for we do not present our supplications before You because of our righteous deeds, but because of Your great mercies.O Lord, hear! O Lord, forgive! O Lord, listen and act! Do not delay for Your own sake, my God, for Your city and Your people are called by Your name.”

But You, O Lord, are a God full of compassion, and gracious, Longsuffering and abundant in mercy and truth.

For we have become partakers of Christ if we hold the beginning of our confidence steadfast to the end,

I will mention the lovingkindnesses of the Lord And the praises of the Lord, According to all that the Lord has bestowed on us, And the great goodness toward the house of Israel, Which He has bestowed on them according to His mercies, According to the multitude of His lovingkindnesses.

Have mercy upon me, O God, According to Your lovingkindness; According to the multitude of Your tender mercies, Blot out my transgressions.

For His mercy endures forever.

The end of a thing is better than its beginning; The patient in spirit is better than the proud in spirit.

Or do you despise the riches of His goodness, forbearance, and longsuffering, not knowing that the goodness of God leads you to repentance?

Remember, O Lord, Your tender mercies and Your lovingkindnesses, For they are from of old.Do not remember the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions; According to Your mercy remember me, For Your goodness’ sake, O Lord.

To the Lord our God belong mercy and forgiveness, though we have rebelled against Him.

Gracious is the Lord, and righteous; Yes, our God is merciful.

In all their affliction He was afflicted, And the Angel of His Presence saved them; In His love and in His pity He redeemed them; And He bore them and carried them All the days of old.

And His mercy is on those who fear him from generation to generation.

Look upon me and be merciful to me, As Your custom is toward those who love Your name.

But He knows the way that I take; When He has tested me, I shall come forth as gold.

For if you return to the Lord, your brethren and your children will be treated with compassion by those who lead them captive, so that they may come back to this land; for the Lord your God is gracious and merciful, and will not turn His face from you if you return to Him.”

The Lord is gracious and full of compassion, Slow to anger and great in mercy.

Though He slay me, yet will I trust Him. Even so, I will defend my own ways before Him.He also shall be my salvation, For a hypocrite could not come before Him.

But He, being full of compassion, forgave their iniquity, And did not destroy them. Yes, many a time He turned His anger away, And did not stir up all His wrath;

For You, Lord, are good, and ready to forgive, And abundant in mercy to all those who call upon You.
