New International Version
Job 29:11-17
New International Version
11 Whoever heard me spoke well of me,
and those who saw me commended me,(A)
12 because I rescued the poor(B) who cried for help,
and the fatherless(C) who had none to assist them.(D)
13 The one who was dying blessed me;(E)
I made the widow’s(F) heart sing.
14 I put on righteousness(G) as my clothing;
justice was my robe and my turban.(H)
15 I was eyes(I) to the blind
and feet to the lame.(J)
16 I was a father to the needy;(K)
I took up the case(L) of the stranger.(M)
17 I broke the fangs of the wicked
and snatched the victims(N) from their teeth.(O)

King James Version
Job 29:11-17
King James Version
11 When the ear heard me, then it blessed me; and when the eye saw me, it gave witness to me:
12 Because I delivered the poor that cried, and the fatherless, and him that had none to help him.
13 The blessing of him that was ready to perish came upon me: and I caused the widow's heart to sing for joy.
14 I put on righteousness, and it clothed me: my judgment was as a robe and a diadem.
15 I was eyes to the blind, and feet was I to the lame.
16 I was a father to the poor: and the cause which I knew not I searched out.
17 And I brake the jaws of the wicked, and plucked the spoil out of his teeth.
