King James Version with Apocrypha
"As I was in the days of my youth, when the secret of God was upon my tabernacle;"
— Job 29:4, King James Version with Apocrypha
“As I was in the days of my youth, when the secret of God was upon my tabernacle;”
“As I was in the ripeness of my days, When the friendship of God was upon my tent; ”
“as I was in the ripeness of my days, when the friendship of God was in my tent,”
“just as I was in my most productive time, when God’s intimate friendship was experienced in my tent,”
“As I was in the days of my youth, when God was secretly in my tabernacle?”
“As I was in my flowering years, when my tent was covered by the hand of God;”
Moreover Job continued his parable, and said,
Oh that I were as in months past, as in the days when God preserved me;
When his candle shined upon my head, and when by his light I walked through darkness;
As I was in the days of my youth, when the secret of God was upon my tabernacle;
When the Almighty was yet with me, when my children were about me;
When I washed my steps with butter, and the rock poured me out rivers of oil;
When I went out to the gate through the city, when I prepared my seat in the street!
