"as I was in the ripeness of my days, when the friendship of God was in my tent,"
— Job 29:4, World English Bible
“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; ”
“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;”
“As I was in the days of my youth, when the secret of God was upon my tabernacle;”
Job again took up his parable, and said,
"Oh that I were as in the months of old, as in the days when God watched over me;
when his lamp shone on my head, and by his light I walked through darkness,
as I was in the ripeness of my days, when the friendship of God was in my tent,
when the Almighty was yet with me, and my children were around me,
when my steps were washed with butter, and the rock poured out streams of oil for me,
when I went forth to the city gate, when I prepared my seat in the street.
