“Oh that I were as in months past, as in the days when God preserved me;”
“ Oh that I were as in the months of old, As in the days when God watched over me; ”
“"Oh that I were as in the months of old, as in the days when God watched over me;”
““O that I could be as I was in the months now gone, in the days when God watched over me,”
“Who will grant me, that I might be according to the months past, according to the days in which God kept me?”
“If only I might again be as I was in the months which are past, in the days when God was watching over me!”
“Oh that I were as in months past, as in the days when God preserved me;”
Job also added to this, using figures of speech, and he said:
Who will grant to me that I might be as I was in former months, according to the days when God kept watch over me?
At that time, his lamp shined over my head, and by his light, I walked through the darkness.
I was then just as in the days of my youth, when God was privately in my tabernacle.
At that time, the Almighty was with me and my children surrounded me.
