"When the Almighty was yet with me, And my children were about me; "
— Job 29:5, American Standard Version
“When the Almighty was yet with me, when my children were about me;”
“when the Almighty was yet with me, and my children were around me,”
“when the Almighty was still with me and my children were around me;”
“When the Almighty was with me: and my servants round about me?”
“While the Ruler of all was still with me, and my children were round me;”
“When the Almighty was yet with me, when my children were about me;”

When his lamp shined upon 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 upon my tent;
When the Almighty was yet with me, And my children were about me;
When my steps were washed with butter, And the rock poured me out streams of oil!
When I went forth to the gate unto the city, When I prepared my seat in the street,
The young men saw me and hid themselves, And the aged rose up and stood;
