Job 29:14
Compare all
12 Because aI delivered the poor who cried out,
The fatherless and the one who had no helper. 
13 The blessing of a perishing man came upon me,
And I caused the widow’s heart to sing for joy.
14 aI put on righteousness, and it clothed me;
My justice was like a robe and a turban. 
15 I was aeyes to the blind,
And I was feet to the lame. 
16 I was a father to the poor,
And aI searched out the case that I did not know. 
17 I broke athe fangs of the wicked,
And plucked the victim from his teeth. 
18 “Then I said, a‘I shall die in my nest,
And multiply my days as the sand. 
19 aMy root is spread out bto the waters,
And the dew lies all night on my branch.
