NIV : JOB 19:25-29
25 I know that my Redeemer [a] lives,
and that in the end he will stand upon the earth. [b]
26 And after my skin has been destroyed,
yet [c] in [d] my flesh I will see God;
27 I myself will see him
with my own eyes—I, and not another.
How my heart yearns within me!
28 "If you say, 'How we will hound him,
since the root of the trouble lies in him, [e] '
29 you should fear the sword yourselves;
for wrath will bring punishment by the sword,
and then you will know that there is judgment. [f] "
Now see the first two lines, they give me hope. I was given a shock of my life then. It was very sweet.
The next verse was even sweeter and holy, sanctifying me.
The next verse was dinner....Sorry it was the best line i cud use from a movie.. Music and Lyrics...
The last two verses were words to correct...
(the MORE)
well now i use a Theophilos a sofware and NIV here for some help.
now Job as you may know the story is gone down, all lost pretty much like if i say in engineering terms as it is easy for me to bring my life experiences.....
you started a project, got it accepted then you made circuit and got away with all glitches and bugs and finally the last minute before exam your circuit along with all documentation is burned away even before you have any idea what is happening and ....well the case of Job is so much worser, he lost his wealth, his life, his kids, his servants, and all he had.... he wasn't sad...
but now here is a condition when he is hurted more. He as said in the first chapters 1 and 2 we see that even when he is nothing he praises God. Now i paste Job's first prayer...
Then Job arose, and rent his mantle, and shaved his head, and fell down upon the ground, and worshipped,21 And said, Naked came I out of my mother's womb, and naked shall I return thither: the LORD gave, and the LORD hath taken away; blessed be the name of the LORD. (KJV)
Now we on the other hand when our pen is lost, or when we misplaced a book curse God sometimes out of the fury. I am not a saint and i have a terrible temper some times,
and once i lost my library book and when i checked the price of it on Amazon it was nearly 40 pounds or so... well i later realised when i got the book back it was less than 10GBP , but due to this fear i didn't realise what i said.
But i guess ...no...i realise Job is one person who we should stay like.
Now the next chapter he is affected with sores.
Now this would make some of us who are weak hearted even take our lives, but job as in ch2:verse.10 still praises God.
But he said unto her, Thou speakest as one of the foolish women speaketh. What? shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil? In all this did not Job sin with his lips (KJV).
