Job 29:16-18

Evangelical Heritage Version

¹⁶ I was a father for the needy.
I investigated their cases for people I did not know.
¹⁷ I shattered the fangs of the wicked,
and I snatched their prey from their teeth.
¹⁸ So I thought: “I will pass away in my own nest,
after multiplying my days like grains of sand.
