New American Standard Bible (NASB)
Job 8
2 "How long will you say these things, And the words of your mouth be a mighty wind?
3 "Does God pervert justice? Or does the Almighty pervert what is right?
4 "If your sons sinned against Him, Then He delivered them into the power of their transgression.
5 "If you would seek God And implore the compassion of the Almighty,
6 If you are pure and upright, Surely now He would rouse Himself for you And restore your righteous estate.
7 "Though your beginning was insignificant, Yet your end will increase greatly.
8 "Please inquire of past generations, And consider the things searched out by their fathers.
9 "For we are only of yesterday and know nothing, Because our days on earth are as a shadow.
10 "Will they not teach you and tell you, And bring forth words from their minds?
11 "Can the papyrus grow up without a marsh? Can the rushes grow without water?
12 "While it is still green and not cut down, Yet it withers before any other plant.
We pray that this ministry will be a blessing to you and your family.
