King James Version
"And if they be bound in fetters, and be holden in cords of affliction;"
— Job 36:8, King James Version
“And if they be bound in fetters, And be taken in the cords of affliction; ”
“If they are bound in fetters, and are taken in the cords of afflictions,”
“But if they are bound in chains, and held captive by the cords of affliction,”
“And if they shall be in chains, and be bound with the cords of poverty:”
“And if they have been prisoned in chains, and taken in cords of trouble,”
“And if they be bound in fetters, and be holden in cords of affliction;”
Behold, God is mighty, and despiseth not any: he is mighty in strength and wisdom.
He preserveth not the life of the wicked: but giveth right to the poor.
He withdraweth not his eyes from the righteous: but with kings are they on the throne; yea, he doth establish them for ever, and they are exalted.
And if they be bound in fetters, and be holden in cords of affliction;
Then he sheweth them their work, and their transgressions that they have exceeded.
He openeth also their ear to discipline, and commandeth that they return from iniquity.
If they obey and serve him, they shall spend their days in prosperity, and their years in pleasures.
