Job 22:27

Verse 27 of 30. The 22nd of 42 chapters in Job, in Poetry and Wisdom.

23If you return to the Almighty, you will be built up, if you put away unrighteousness far from your tents.

24Lay your treasure in the dust, the gold of Ophir among the stones of the brooks.

25The Almighty will be your treasure, and precious silver to you.

26For then you will delight yourself in the Almighty, and will lift up your face to God.

27You will make your prayer to him, and he will hear you. You will pay your vows.

28You will also decree a thing, and it will be established to you. Light will shine on your ways.

29When they cast down, you will say, ‘be lifted up.’ He will save the humble person.

30He will even deliver him who is not innocent. Yes, he will be delivered through the cleanness of your hands.”
