IF I JUSTIFY MYSELF MINE OWN MOUTH SHALL CONDEMN ME

-

 JOB 9:13-22

IF GOD WILL NOT 
WITHDRAW HIS ANGER, 
THE PROUD HELPERS 
DO STOOP UNDER HIM. 
HOW MUCH LESS SHALL 
I ANSWER HIM, AND CHOOSE 
OUT MY WORDS TO
 REASON WITH HIM?  
WHOM, THOUGH I WERE RIGHTEOUS, 
YET WOULD I NOT ANSWER, 
BUT I WOULD MAKE SUPPLICATION 
TO MY JUDGE. 
IF I HAD CALLED, 
AND HE HAD ANSWERED ME; 
YET WOULD I NOT BELIEVE 
THAT HE HAD HEARKENED 
UNTO MY VOICE.   
FOR HE BREAKETH ME 
WITH A TEMPEST, AND MULTIPLIETH 
MY WOUNDS WITHOUT CAUSE. 
HE WILL NOT SUFFER ME 
TO TAKE MY BREATH, 
BUT FILLETH ME WITH BITTERNESS. 
IF I SPEAK OF STRENGTH, 
LO, HE IS STRONG: 
AND IF OF JUDGMENT, 
WHO SHALL SET ME A TIME TO PLEAD? 
 IF I JUSTIFY MYSELF, 
MINE OWN MOUTH SHALL 
CONDEMN ME: IF I SAY, 
I AM PERFECT, IT SHALL 
ALSO PROVE ME PERVERSE. 
THOUGH I WERE PERFECT, 
YET WOULD I NOT KNOW MY SOUL: 
I WOULD DESPISE MY LIFE. 
THIS IS ONE THING, THEREFORE 
I SAID IT, HE DESTROYETH 
THE PERFECT AND THE WICKED. 

LOVE

 PSALM 43 JUDGE ME, O GOD,  AND PLEAD MY CAUSE  AGAINST AN UNGODLY NATION:  O DELIVER ME FROM  THE DECEITFUL AND UNJUST MAN.  FOR THOU ART  THE GOD OF MY STRENGTH:  WHY DOST THOU CAST ME OFF?  WHY GO I MOURNING BECAUSE  OF  THE OPPRESSION OF THE ENEMY?  O  SEND OUT THY  LIGHT AND THY TRUTH:  LET THEM LEAD ME;  LET THEM BRING ME  UNTO THY HOLY HILL,  AND TO THY TABERNACLES.  THEN WILL I GO UNTO  THE ALTAR OF GOD,  UNTO GOD MY EXCEEDING JOY:  YEA, UPON THE HARP WILL  I PRAISE THEE, O GOD MY GOD. WHY ART THOU CAST DOWN, O MY SOUL?  AND WHY ART THOU DISQUIETED  WITHIN ME?  HOPE IN GOD:  FOR I SHALL YET PRAISE HIM,  WHO IS THE HEALTH OF  MY COUNTENANCE, AND MY GOD. LOVE

BY FAITH  JOSEPH,  WHEN HE DIED, MADE MENTION  of the departing of the children of Israel; and  GAVE COMMANDMENT CONCERNING HIS BONES. BY FAITH MOSES WHEN HE WAS BORN,  was hid three months of his parents,  because they saw he was A PROPER CHILD;  and they were NOT AFRAID of the king's commandment. BY FAIT...
