"Lay down your greatness without distress, and put aside all of your power with courage."
— Job 36:19, Catholic Public Domain Version
“Will he esteem thy riches? no, not gold, nor all the forces of strength.”
“Will thy cry avail, that thou be not in distress, Or all the forces ofthystrength? ”
“Would your wealth sustain you in distress, or all the might of your strength?”
“Would your wealth sustain you, so that you would not be in distress, even all your mighty efforts?”
“Lay down thy greatness without tribulation, and all the mighty of strength.”
“Will he esteem thy riches? no, not gold, nor all the forces of strength.”
Therefore, he will save you from the narrow mouth very widely, even though it has no foundation under it. Moreover, your respite at table will be full of fatness.
Your case has been judged like that of the impious; you will withdraw your plea and your judgment.
Therefore, do not let anger overwhelm you so that you oppress another; neither should you allow a multitude of gifts to influence you.
Lay down your greatness without distress, and put aside all of your power with courage.
Do not prolong the night, even if people rise on their behalf.
Be careful that you do not turn to iniquity; for, after your misery, you have begun to follow this.
Behold, God is exalted in his strength, and there is no one like him among the law-givers.
